Know what's a bigger pregnant woman magnet than Target?

The zoo. What are they all doing there? Are they trying to walk themselves into labor? Because it's not a bunch of subtle baby bumps - it's the 9+ month ladies out there. About half of them were without kids too. I guess I'm feeling better, because I found it more entertaining than painful that the universe is messing with me. Because the last 5 times I've been to the zoo? Not a pregnant woman to be found. No, then it was the ultra fit moms of toddlers, with whom I also compare unfavorably. When you can't win, you just have to laugh.

  1. Oh mate. You do have to laugh .. and then maybe cry, eat chocolate, laugh again, repeat.

    I hope your girl enjoyed the zoo. I do hope you are ok.

  2. "Compare unfavorably"--ha. :) But try to remember all the awful things about being fit and being pregnant. There are lots! For one thing, fit and pregnant people cannot live off of sugary cereal.

  3. You are such a winner, just ask your daughter! And me, cause we are both really smart.

  5. I found a handful of exceedingly pregnant women waddling through my university library this week. What? Why?

  6. I went to the Zoo with my 2 year old and it was hard to see all the pregnant ladies and their closely-spaced children. And I'm pregnant right now (residual infertile resentment) so I can only imagine.

  7. I'm so sorry about your loss.

    I love zoos but avoided them for three years while we were going through our TTC battle/journey. Way too many strollers, etc.

  8. I'm sorry you're running into lots of pg women. It does feel like they are everywhere when you aren't pg. I'm so sorry for your loss.
