Pregnancy does all sorts of unique, exciting things to the human body. Most are uncomfortable. Boobs are no exception. I know, people read Boobs and think it's going to be some salacious sexy post.... No. It's really not. Pregnant body boobs are like whiny four-year-olds you must house in a bra of proper specifications to avoid misery. Here's the joy of boob changes in several conversations.
Last Month
Boobs: Did you notice? We're getting bigger.
Me: Yeah... That's kind of obvious.
Boobs: We thought you should know. BECAUSE EVERYTHING HURTS NOW.
Me: I SAID I KNOW.
Boobs: No more bras! EVER! We REFUSE!
Me: FINE. *goes bra-less*
One Hour Later...
Boobs: We aren't happy. We told you EVERYTHING HURTS so now you're without a bra? Are you
some kind of monster??
Me: FFS! YOU SAID NO BRAS.
Boobs: EVERYTHING YOU DO MAKES US ANGRY!
One Week Later...
Boobs: Your bras don't fit. Are you trying to crush us to death? This is ridiculous.
Me: FINE. We'll go shopping.
Boobs: Too tight.
*next one*
Too itchy
*next one*
WTF! Can't you just find a bra that isn't some contortionists NIGHTMARE?
Me: DO YOU THINK THIS IS FUN FOR ME EITHER? AUGH!
Boobs: Fine. the last one. Let's just get the hell out of this store.
Me: Agreed.
One Week Later...
Boobs: You remember the lady at the store who fitted you for a bra? The one who was REALLY REALLY sure we needed a C cup, so we bought the fancy nursing bras there?
Me: Yes...
Boobs: The new bras are too small!
Me: FFS! WHY DO YOU KEEP DOING THIS TO ME?
Boobs: IT'S NOT OUR FAULT THAT YOU GOT PREGNANT! BLAME THE UTERUS!
Me: Goddammit. *back to the store*
One Week Later...
Boobs: We like this bra.
Me: That's great.
Boobs: Just one problem...
Me: For gods sake, WHAT NOW?
Boobs: Your bra is damp.
Me: What the hell?
Boobs: SURPRISE! WE REMEMBERED HOW TO LACTATE!
Me: There are not enough words to express how much I hate you right now.
My ranting Mommy journal of the indignities of Pregnancy, Parenting and Marriage. Profane, random, probably offensive. You've been warned.
This is my profane humor blog exploring the unique frustrations and embarrassments of pregnancy, parenting, and marriage. I'm pretty sure I was crazy before I got pregnant, now it's full-blown hormonal madness. This is Pregnancy Part 2: Revenge of the Unborn. I also have a 6yo daughter, two cats and a dog.
Life is never dull.
You crack me up!
ReplyDeleteI needed a blog to be utterly irreverent. :-> I don't want to think hard right now, I just want to be funny. :)
