The bloating and swelling and stretching have begun! My feet are chubby and my fingers look like sausages. The skin on them feels so tight. Although I hate to be without my precious wedding rings, I take them off at night to give my poor, fat finger a rest. That's also the name of my new band - the Poor Fat Fingers. Oh, and I have news - I am now the proud owner of an outie belly button. The skin on my stomach really seems to be testing its limits. It feels so stretched and itchy. Thankfully, my sister-in-law, Jen, suggested I rub Vitamin-E oil on it every morning and night and that's really helped.
It's such a weird feeling to look down at my feet and hands and not recognize them. I also still occasionally catch myself in the mirror when I'm naked am shocked at how large my belly is. It's huge and bizarre and I love it. I have a little booter in there! MY little booter! Makes all the bloating and swelling and stretching worth it. Grow, little booter! Develop those lungs!

I've given my wedding rings a rest for the past month... add the carpal tunnel to the bloating, and there's just no way! I also (laughably) tried some shoes on the other day... word to the wise: don't go show-shopping until you're not pregnant anymore!
I've been wearing nothing but flip flops for the past few months. I tried buying a pair of sandals a few weeks ago and they didn't fit on my feet. Chub!
