....you ask your three year old son what's wrong and he grips his stomach and says, "I'm having contractions!"
....the teenage bagger at the grocery store actually lifts his eyes to look at you, the puberty induced fog momentarily clears, and he speaks..."Whoa, can I, like, help you to your car or something?"
....your Star Wars crazed sons generally refer to you as "Chubba-the-Hutt."
....every well meaning, oblivious, never-had-a-baby checker at Wal-Mart wants to know when your twins are due.
....your favorite food seasoning is "Tums," because even a glass of water gives you heartburn.
....your kids look up at you and say, "Mom, you're getting a little grumpy, maybe you need a few minutes to lie down."
....no matter how much water you guzzle, your bladder only produces urine one teaspoon at a time.
....you are actually looking forward to the experience of childbirth.
Josh and I started making this list together last weekend, I thought I'd post our best and see what other items you could come up with.

HI!! This list is TOO funny, I love it!! I can't wait to see pictures of your sweet little girl...just a few more weeks! Oh, I was wondering if you could email me "the reading list"!! our library is literally across the street from us and I can't wait to get over there and get reading! have a good one!!
Your list totally made me laugh - so true, so true. It will be so fun to have a girl in the house, can't wait to see pictures!
... your buttons start popping off the last pair of maternity pants that actually fit!
...everyone looks skinny, even your friend who is 7 months pregnant...
okay, so mine aren't as funny as yours, but its been a little while since I had my baby and I can't really remember any of the funny stuff! (but it hasn't actually been long enough for the funny part of my brain to be fully recovered either)
Thank you Josh and Cheryl for making this list. You made my day. I had a huge laugh -- especially about the teenage kid at the grocery store, and the question about twins. Been there, done that.
Alright, so as a lady who gets "huge" when pregnant, I can totally relate to your list! Love it! Actually, one of the young men in our ward did tell Brad that I was "huge" when I was pregnant (and I was feeling good b/c I hadn't gained as much weight with Noah as I had with Emily).
...It takes more then 3 noodles to keep you afloat in the pool!! Really I was a 4 Noodle momma last summer!!! You're almost there!!!
I can say I probably win the contest on the largest belly size while prego! If you want I will email a picture of my completely stretched belly and make you feel like a beauty queen. I cannot wait until that is removed from my body!! Just hang on. It will come all too soon.
Oh Cheryl! You are one of my most favorite people! You never cease to make me laugh and just plain feel better!
Little Jilly! It is time to come out! Right now! Don't make your mama suffer anymore!
I can feel your pain! I hope you will have that baby soon and all will be right with the world again!
Well, today is July 16th... The official D-Day. I won't call and bother you to see if you are "still here" but just know that I am thinking about you and sending contraction dust your way. Hope you are either sitting in your hospital bed - post delivery or at least on your way there right now! :)
I love it. This is hilarious!
