Unspeakable things I will only do when pregnant

  1. Drink Dutch 0.0% alcohol beer.
  2. Fart repeatedly without running to the toilet. (Only around the family, poor things.)
  3. Burp all night without removing myself from the room. (Again, poor family.)
  4. Claim I "can't possibly, in my condition" clean up cat vomit/move a piano/call the bank.
  5. Blatantly stick out and rub my belly when asking nearby males to carry heavy things.
  6. Wear a poncho. A green one.
I can't decide which of these is the most disgusting of all: the light beer or the poncho.

Yes, I'm ashamed. No, I won't stop.

  4. Oh, do NOT be ashamed my sister.

    And the farting? Not reserved for pregnancy around these parts. My poor family indeed.

  6. All things are excusable when you're pregnant. All. Except maybe the fake beer...why bother??

  7. Definitely the fake beer. Poncho comes close but the fake beer is just unforgiveable.

  8. I wore dungarees. Unforgiveable. But loved them when I was pregnant. Love the sound of your poncho

  9. No shame necessary. I've done that lot too, except the green poncho, even if green is my fav colour, ponchos can't be the most flattering article of clothing when pregnant?!

  10. Nothing at all- everything can be blamed on the pregnancy- that is the trade off. You do not get alcohol- but you do get an excuse.

  11. Hi there, the poncho sounds quite cosy....I had a fixation for Starbucks tuna and cheese melts - strange I got so fat. Enjoy ! xx

  12. It's a tough one but I think I'm going to go with the green poncho! Bad, bad, bad even if you are pregnant...

  13. Hurray for pregnancy, which not only puts our periods on hold while simultaneously making PMS run 9 consecutive months instead of 1 week a month, but also allows us to do soooooo many things we wouldn't have a good excuse to do otherwise.

  14. Certainly the poncho. I don't know how you can wear the green without reminding you of vomit.

    By the way, you're the giveaway winner. Email me your address.

  16. I vote the beer. Have never seen the point of non-alcoholic beer or wine! It is usually vile anyway.....

  17. Is it okay that I do all these things and am not currently pregnant?

  18. definitely the poncho... is it crocheted?

    Italy has some near beer that tasted ok if it was really cold. But yeah, apple juice has a better kick. At least you get a sugar high from it.
