Pregnant Brain Humor

So a little while ago, my SO poured me a bubble bath. I must have sat there for at least half an hour just relaxing and enjoying the smell and all that.
Well, I decided I wanted to lie down so I pulled the plug and stayed sitting to play with the bubbles some more.
About halfway down I got a really strong sensation in the top of my belly. I figured it was a BH so I should sit still. It kept getting worse and I was really confused, so I thought I better not move.
About 3/4 of the way down, I realized what had happened. The water had been holding my belly and when I let it drain the weight coming back made it feel like a cramp that wouldn't stop.
Pregnant brain forgot how a belly works LOL I will never admit this to my SO.

Lol... I did take baths for a long while but now I'm at the point that the shower is my friend... I'm afraid that if I do another bath I will get stuck and the only people here to help me are my other children which isn't much help at all because they are 7,5 & 3... I do miss that relaxation tho...

Lol, i had a bath the other night to try relieve the pain in my pelvis and pubic joints. Im 33wks and extremelly big. All was fine until i decided to get back out, i couldnt get up.i had to call my husband, he had to try drag me up and out. In the process i think i dislocated my pubic bone or joints so i can barely walk at all now. I wont be doing that again in a hurry! I litterally have no control over my limbs! Lol.

I forgot the belly does that as well. Thanks for the reminder. I was planning on taking a nice bubble bath tomorrow after work. Will definitely remember that. Oh and I wouldn't tell my SO either lol.

The water takes the weight of the belly off of you so it helps your back and stuff.
When I was letting the water drain and the weight of my belly was pulling forward again, I thought I was having a really bad cramp and I couldn't figure out what to do.
When the water got lower, I realized that the "cramp" was my belly going back to its normal spot and it just felt really heavy after having it in the bath for so long lol
