'Legally' third trimester as of today.
Having a bit of a meh though. Wedding is tomorrow, this morning I got up early, took the dog to the Dogparents (like god parents but for dogs) and left her there for the rest of the weekend. Had Liam (Husbands) birthday last night so did loads of running around for that. Needed to buy some shoes to wear for the wedding (am bridesmaid) so did that. Have to finalise my speech, the bride is Russian so I've had to get someone to decipher some Russian stories for me to share within my speech, received the last installment of those at 3am this morning so thought 'good okay, drop off dog, sort kids, grab train tickets for kids, get clothes ready for tomorrow, get dress ready for tomorrow, sit and finalise speech, practise it a couple of times and then go to bed early to be up for 7am to get other bridesmaid and head to venue.
Then I get a message from the best man and groom wanting a 'group chat' with me at 7pm tonight. Which is fine, I can squeeze that in.
Then I get a message from the best man saying 'oh Hi, Groom wants us to decorate his car so can you grab some shaving foam, cans and string and we'll do that tomorrow, thanks'
Hang the fuck on. I've done the hen night, the table dressing, helped with the seating plan, had endless conversations about dresses, ended up crying in Debenhams because the bride INSISTED on squeezing me into a parade of ill-fitting, non-maternity, stiff dresses in order to fit her '1950s vibe' at which point I had to insist to be allowed to dress as a pregnant woman dresses at a wedding rather than as some sort of fucking whale.
Now along with collected various people 35 miles from my house and then driving them a further 15 miles to the venue, I have to do the job of the best man/ushers? Isn't that taking the piss a little bit?
How exactly is it going to work? We get there for 10, the wedding is at 15.00, I'm supposed to spend an hour in hair and make up and get the briefing on where people are sitting and making sure Irina has people around her.
Why am I now also, on top of all that stuff expected to just 'find' time to get a load of shit together to throw on a car????
I know I probably shouldn't be so hormonal about this but its really pissed me off. If I DO get 25 mins to sit down tomorrow, I will be, well SITTING DOWN what with being a heavily pregnant woman being expected to rush around and do loads of shit.
Its made me just not want to go. I feel so totally taken the piss out of.
. I really can't find anything I'm fussed on in Newlook ect. So far ive been lucky as my bumps been small and I can still fit into my normal clothes but dreading getting bigger.
had bloods taken, took her 3 attempts though so both my arms are sore! Next one at 31 weeks! Ahh, will be getting so close! xx
