Top 10 Reasons you know you are a PREGNANT LADY (First Trimester Edition)



10 - You should never buy things in bulk at Sam's Club that look good at the moment...it doesn't look good after day 3 and you are stuck with a lot of peanut butter filled pretzels.

9 - You start getting teary eyed, and then end up full on crying as you drive down the road when an old school Celine Dion song comes on the radio.

8 - Your toddler who tries to do everything you do begins to imitate gagging noises.

7 - Your toddler who has never watched TV is now very familiar with Thomas the train, and Elmo.



6 - The Thomas the Train Engine theme song now has a psychological effect on you and triggers vomit.

5 - You take a nap in the parking lot at the mall to avoid losing your lunch.

4 - You decide to keep your pedometer on at night so you can log the hundreds of steps you get going back and forth from the bathroom.

3 - You lay in bed eating crackers trying not to move your head mustering up your courage to get out of bed, all the while hearing your toddler in the next room jumping in the crib yelling "Ma!"

2 - You sneak snacks in the bathroom at church because you feel ridiculous eating in front of the primary kids on Fast Sunday.

And the number 1 reason...



You drive away from Papa Murphy's with your pizza on the hood of the Jeep. You make it all the way to the grocery store and wonder why everyone is staring at your car in the parking lot. You are very grateful that Papa Murphy's uses ultra sticky plastic wrap!!! (Oh DEAR...at least I didn't forget Ethan on the hood of the car)

Ok, the Papa Murphy's pizza part is funny. And they do use ultra sticky wrap. But the rest of it just makes me feel sad for you. Hang in there! Wish we could be there to play with Ethan for you and eat your peanut butter crackers.

oh! you poor thing ! I do not know how you do it with a little Ethan running around. That would be so hard to not throw up.

Hilarious. And thanks to you I think I am officially done having kids! That first trimester always makes me rethink that decision.

P. S. This says "Joe" but it is really LauriAnn, I was too lazy to sign him out.
