    Belly x 36

    August 3rd, 2008

    “Labor” day is 30 days away now and G’s temporary home looks like this:

    I still marvel at how much my belly can grow.

    S has been urging me to go to the community pool, especially while I’m on my maternity leave. As lovely as the idea sounds, I don’t quite feel comfortable wearing a bikini in front of strangers. Don’t get me wrong — I think I look very good for an 8 month pregnant lady, but I’m worried that some poor child is going to see me and start crying. I can just hear that conversation now:

    [Child’s parent]: Don’t cry kiddo. It’s just a baby inside her belly!

    [Child, while sniffling]: Did that lady eat it?

    Ah, yes — no bikini for me.
