Good things about being pregnant

1. No one gives you the side-eye when you order dessert.

2. People are eager to give up their seat for you (note: this does not apply to college guys waiting for their free drinks at a brewery).

3. No more sucking it in!

4. People actually will pick things up for you when you drop them on the ground.

5. Others are so impressed you're still working they don't pay attention to the kind of work you produce.

6. Easy to distract lawyers by talking about your due date/maternity leave (seriously, lawyers in particular).

7. Hearing people take bets on whether or not you return from maternity leave.

8. Monthly time off for doctors appointments. I make mine for 9:30 so that I can sleep in a little.

9. Easy to talk your husband into eating out.

10. People are obliged to tell you good things i.e., how small you are, how great you look.

  1. Not to mention your hubby should be carrying you around on a satin pillow 24/7, SPQ style. :-D
