Some funny things about big, round bellies

Sitting with Josh in my midwives' office today, waiting for my turn to hand over SIX vials of blood, we perused the "Buyer's Guide" for Pregnancy and Newborn: like Skymall, only slightly more pornographic. And for moms. I stand in awe at the products available to expecting mothers. See for yourself:


Amazing, all the activities a nursing mother can do while providing sustenance for her child.

A bronze cast of the belly, perfectly tuned to the lovely chime of a bell. You can listen on their website.

You call that a belly? Vat-ev-er. C'mon over and see a really really big ultra big belly, baby.

As for the hands free breast pumping, I'm not buying it. The last thing I wanna do while being milked like a cow is interact with anything - silly.

Can't wait for us to go into labor on the same day. I'm (seriously) trying for Halloween. You up for it?

A cousin of mine had some auto pumper things, but they were more compact/circular shaped, so you could wear them under a shirt. She called them her "robo-boobs"
