Prego Police

They are OUT! And it's really starting to piss me off...

"Dont do this", "be careful doing that", "don't eat this", "you should try to eat that", "you shouldnt drink caffeine", "don't eat tuna", "stay away from deli meats", "dont eat shellfish", "dont eat any salt", "drink water all day long", "dont put your hand above your head", and last but not least... "make sure you walk..."

Make sure I walk? Are you serious? Do you forget where I am? It is hot as hell in Houston right now and the humidity makes it feel even WORSE. Everyday. It doesnt matter the time of day or night. It's hot. Plus we are in the midst of a drought. The ground is hot... hella hot. I hadn't even been shopping in forever until yesterday (had my $25 DSW voucher). It's just too hot when you have to walk from the car to the store and back. TOO DAMN HOT. So, expecting me to go take a walk out in this Houston heat is out of the question. Period. I dont think baby Cameron wants her mom to pass out just so she could go walking.

On another note... why are people (other women) so rude to pregnant women? We are already in a fragile state and people just feel the need to comment on our size. When it comes from someone you know, you can take it as a joke or you can tell them to kiss your @$$ but from a complete stranger to say... "you are huge", "you look like you are ready to drop at any moment now" or "are you having twins" (when you're only having one baby) is just ridiculous. I told Jerry that the next time some woman I dont know comes up to me and says something like that, I am going to look back at them and say, in all seriousness... "Oh, I am due in October... having a baby girl. When are you due?"

That'll shut them up. At least I hope so.
