Fat Mama - I'm over it!

I feel like a foie gras goose who has been stuffed to within an inch of her life, but instead of my liver hanging from my nethers like a basket full of freesias, its my nubbin!
Am I having a prolapse? It certainly feels odd, but what can you expect at 7 months baked with twins. The lil blighters are head first into my fanny trying to make a break for freedom. I keep having to 'hoik' myself up, if you know what I mean? Very unladylike I must say, still, I've got big tits though, which makes up for pretty much everything!

Only 6 weeks and 2 days to go - Bring on the 'Slash and Grab', bugger this natural labour malarkey, I'd much rather a c-section, a copy of 'Hello!' and a large Vod Ton.

I'll be back when I can roll myself back onto to the sofa...

Pulling when pregnant - Fetish or Faux pas?

Why is it much easier to pull when you’re attached? I can only guess that it’s maybe the inner smugness that you exude when you have bagged a keeper, or perhaps it’s a primal male thing, ‘grrr, me take other man’s woman’. But when you have a great big fat belly full of babies preceding you, it is down right ridiculous, why would you suddenly become oh-so attractive to the opposite sex (well maybe not all the time, but it does happen!).

This is what happened to me last week. It was pick-up time in more ways than one when a young man at my son’s nursery asked me out on a date, and no I didn’t see his white stick, or his mates pissing themselves behind the bike sheds, so I assume he was serious, especially as he suggested putting his phone number in my son’s bag for me as he didn’t have a pen on him! I have been fascinated to why someone would come on to a heavily pregnant woman with a wedding ring on her finger ever since.

After much pondering, I realise I do not look like Elle McPherson and therefore I have put it down to being a fetish, yes, there is such a thing as pregnancy fetish, and in the guise of journalistic research, I have spent hours surfing the web for these pregnancy fetish sites and it’s opened a whole new world for me. I just didn’t realise it would stretch to my little corner of south east London. Not only are there pregnancy fetishes, but there are sub-fetishes such as multiple births, lactophilia, a love of all things milky and inflation fetishes which is the sexual attraction to the expansion of certain body parts. Although each to their own, the images of these heavily-loaded ladies are enough to put even the most desperate of men off their pudding.

Thanks but no thanks, and ‘bless you’ young man for making a bulbous mother of soon-to-be 3 feel attractive in her moment of need.
