Knickers & Socks... Please Help!

[luce1]

Help ladies ... i'm struggling so much bending down to get my bloody socks on and just lately my knickers too... Hubby finds it hilarious and eventuly helps me but is there a knack to it that i'm missing?
I've tried sitting on the bed and bringing my legs up but my bump jus gets in the way everytime!!

And while i'm here moaning... I'm so fed up with my pregnancy skin and how pale I am (already on iron tablets) My face is starting to look like a chipmunk... ARRRRRR!

Feel better now... oh can anyone help with the knickers & sock thing?

can't help with the socks and pants but olay everyday sunshine moisturiser is fab! Everyone comments on how well I look, I'd be pasty without it and it m,akes your skin clear and soft

Ive trainned my 2 year old to help me. If he cant be botherd to help I usually use sit on the end of the bed and turn into an acrobat.

Dont tend to do it in front of OH as he laughs at me

Try putting socks and knickers on when you can't open your legs wider than 2 inches because of your SPD!!! It takes me about 5 minutes per sock!!!!

[Minxy]

I'm with you mummykay! If it's too much bother go commando!

hehe i remember this problem..had to get oh to put my underwear on! if he wasnt there it was a case of holding my knickers as low as i could and puttiing my legs through the holes while balancing by putting my hand on the wall/bed whatever was easiest!
with the socks i had to lie on the bed and be a contortionist...by the end it was v hot anyway so i wore flip-flops or slip on sandals i could just step into!!

aw theres no dignity in childbirth is there? hehe

Ooo that brings back horrid memories My hubby had to put my sock & boots on for me. When my feet, ankles & legs swelled up it was even funnier - not!

As for putting my knicks on I would sit on my stool & loop one leg round a foot then lasso it round the other foot. Took a while mind
