So who else is at that point where they need a stool or chair to do dishes & cook, or is just me? 🤷🏻…

Ugh I didn’t have chairs or a stool to do dishes and cook I just had to suffer it out! 😫

@amberjacq, 😩 I’m sorry. I can’t, I would probably pass out if I didn’t have this stool. I feel so much pressure on my vag and my legs/feet are feeling it. They get all tingly and itchy when I’m standing for too long, it scares me.

You know it! I am glad I went on Maternity leave last Wednesday bc I could NOT imagine doin my job right now. I hardly have the strength to clean my living room after my two toddlers.

i did the stool lmaooo

Aww i feel you i do them standing but have to take about 2 or three breaks to sit or ill pass out.

@fuhgeddaboudit, yes it’s just me?! 🤭

@beachcutie0808, ugh I feel you, working rn would be close to impossible for me at this point.

I use a chair to cook cause i can't stand for more than a few min. I make my daughter do the dishes.

@mom2bei, yeah much needed breaks. It’s crazy how the weight affects our bodies! 😩

@txmomof5, I wish I had a 12 year old daughter to do my dishes lol

@fuhgeddaboudit, oh lol 😂

Yeah bc I can hardly keep my feet from exploding from swelling let alone a 8 hr shift I hardly get time to sit down doing.

@beachcutie0808, What do you do ?

& for sure, I swell just by sitting down. I constantly have my legs elevated to avoid it.

I gave up on cooking last week. We're just gonna have to be unhealthy till after I have this girl. I told my husband after an appt one day that I had to go on mandatory bed rest from 30w onwards...that didn't work unfortunately lol

@krs1415, lmao if it was up to my bf he would have me on bed rest. And the only reason I’m really cooking today is because I wanted homemade food, I’m tired of ordering food + my bf is working all day today. 😓 usually he cooks for me.

@leslyev92 I envy you more than you can imagine, just know that lmao

@krs1415, life wasn’t always this good lol i got lucky with this one. Btw don’t have to be totally unhealthy! You can try getting as close to healthy as possible!

@leslyev92 I was..then hubby got lazy I recon lol I've been with him since I was 16 though so I guess it's time to reconnect and brush up on our communication when it comes to my needs during this pregnancy anyway. And ahh we do eat pretty healthy still, mostly easy stuff though like those bagged skillet meals, crock pot dinners and frozen lasagna lol it does the job anyway! Though last week we really did do chicken nuggets almost every night haha I'm feeling a little bit better now though so I can handle 15 mins at a time standing so that is plenty of time to throw something decent together. I hate cooking anyway though 🤗 and the worst thing is ALL I am craving is fast food garbage. I could make a meal out of French fries and mozzarella sticks 😊

I work for the school board.

It's definitely a necessity now 🤰🏼
