Hehe that's awesome, things to look forward to I guess! I've already requested my parents find me a stretcher for when we're camping at Xmas time (I'll be 8m3w pg!) as there's no way I'll be able to get on and off an airbed! I can just picture it now

Try tying your running shoe laces or putting socks on, what a mission!

A good one for getting in and out of the car is by putting a plastic bag on the seat, it's great, slips and slides when you want to get out, otherwise it can be a real mission!!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Tip: Get hubby to put on your socks and invest in slip ons! (and it gets worse, I used to have to have help to put on my undies and trousers!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I can totally relate. I cant put my clothes away on my top shelf of the wardrobe now, so DH helps with that! He also has to help with a variety of getting dressed challenges...getting up of the sofa.....putting the washing in the drier.....the list continues, and he never moans at all!!  ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Try shaving "down there", its sooo hard to see over the bump what you're doing! I'm sure Dh will be more than happy to take over that job for me. ------------- My babies: R (9),G (7), J (5) http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

My friend got stuck in the bath at 36 weeks and ended up calling her husband out of work, 50 km away, to help her get out as noone else had a spare key. Made me think tho, cos I never took the phone in the bathroom til I heard her story ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

I now wear satin feel pj's to bed, they not only help me roll over, they make exiting alot easier. I get stuck on our couch too, hubbie is keeps saying he's going to get a gantry installed to help me off the couch... bless him!
Cutting your toe nails is fun too - I do it with my foot on the toilet now. Shaving full stop has turned into a full scale exercise! Thankfully I can still get in and out of the bath. I'm using a mirror for my bikini line, it's the only way at the moment to see what's going on down there..  ------------- Mr Mellow (16) Miss Attitude (8) Destructa Kid (3)

Oh god, I have so much to look forward to!!
I am definitely having trouble with the socks, and was looking at the toenails before wondering quite what I am going to do about them! And it seems it is only going to get worse!!  ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids
