Holding my daughter on my lap comfortably is getting harder especially since
she likes to bounce on the belly which is torture! Any kind of bending at
the waist is torture, but I don't have much longer thank goodness.

Shaving my legs in the shower and any kind of bending at the waist. The
worst is bending over the washher or dryer to get clothes in or out.

I gave up shaving my legs during my first pregnancy and never have
really gone back to it, maybe just a couple times for a pantyhose kind
of special event. We're closet hippies anyway, so dh doesn't care one
way or the other, and I generally couldn't be bothered.

Two things start to bug me now as my belly gets bigger. First, not being
able to sit close enough to the table to eat, so I end up with a messy
shirt more often than not. Second, the loss of that lower area of
peripheral vision, so you can't really see to navigate around all the
toys and cats and what have you on the floor.

Putting on my shoes!!! I'm 32 weeks (or 33, depending on which due
date you believe) and getting my shoes tied is a PROJECT!

Dont shave so often now that it is winter. But tying shoe laces is a
pain, I have to sit on the floor to tie them :-( .

I only shave my legs for Dr appointments (It's a she!), because DH doesn't
really care. I can hardly put my socks on and when I cannot wear my clogs,
DH ties and unties the boots for me. Oh I was forgetting! When i wear my
overalls, getting the straps over the shoulders without twisting them.

I found that sitting on a stool helps, but then again, I'm not that big... I
didn't start wearing maternity tops until I was into the end of my seventh
month. However, that being said, now I find it really difficult, and I
switched to Nair with good results. One bit of advice, though. If you do
the bikni line, don't get up and move around.
