So I sign up for the summer triatholon. It is three months long and consists of biking 112 miles, running 26.2, and swimming 2.4. I am currently six months prego and figure that I can do this safely because the run will be just jog/walk for me. When I signed up everyone looked at me like I was psycho and was like your pregnant. No shit did you just figure that out...I never even noticed I had a lil bun in my oven??!! So I responded back I didn't know being pregnant took away my ability to swim, ride a stationary bike, and walk/jog. Plus I had three months not one dayto complete all this! Ugh I hate being seen as I am disabled, I am active duty military fool and work ten hours a day. Working out is my only stress relief from some of the idiots I work with.

    People are dumb! You can still run and ride a bike when ur prego n swimming is one of the recommended activities! Its not like u have two broken legs! Just ignore them all and rub it in their faces when u finish before them!

    It doesnt bother me when people tell me not to lift heavy things orr anything at that. Its the only time people will offer to do things for u so why not take advantage of it? :)

    Sadly, I hear you. I am usually the one to defy everyone's expectations of what women can do while preggo. well, I was at the store and 3 people yelled at me for picking up a case of sprite to get it rung in. i was like "uhm, I had to pick it up to get it in the cart, out of the cart, in the van, and in the house....i'll survive." as i was walking away i heard the manager telling the cashier that she needed to come scan it for people like me= very preggo....WHAT?! i understand some people want to help. but unless you are going to do tons of things at home for me, let it go!

    I swear some people...what kills me is its the very same women that when they get pregnant want everything done for them. Granyted I know there a lot of things I can not do, but don't take away the things I can. Just because you wanted everything done for you, and used it as an excuse to be lazy does not mean I do. My husband is also military so I know that when he's not around I have to do a lot of things on my own...certaintly things that can not just wait until he comes home considering it maybe months before he comes home. If I had the helpless mentality I would not have managed to be in the service for 9 years...ugh some people! Lol
