I measured my belly today. My waist has expanded to 30 inches! Yikes!
Ad has been joking that I can now wear his jeans. Not funny.
Despite my increasing size, it's peculiar - I haven't put on a single pound. My weighing machine still reads 48 kg every morning. I think there must be something wrong with the machine. How come I have a 30-inch waist with no weight gain?
Anyway, I've bought myself a Bella Band. It's really cool!
It looks sort of like a black tube, but it's worn on your belly. It's a great invention - enables preggie women to wear their pre-pregnancy jeans/pants unzipped! It's great for me - my butt still fits my jeans and pants but I just can't zip up, so the Bella Band goes over the zip and holds up my pants! Unzipped!
You can find out more about the Bella Band here.
I think it's amazing how women, when confronted with their bodies' changing needs during pregnancy, find their inspiration to invent great products - so simple, yet so effective! I mean, I paid close to $60 for this Bella Band. Cutthroat eh? But it's so darn useful (and effective!) I'm thinking of getting another one in pink. Heh. The inventors must be making loads of money. And then there was this other story in a magazine that I was reading the other day. Some woman, frustrated with how difficult it was to sleep with such a huge tummy, invented some "pregnancy pillow", and started a business producing and selling it.
I think I should invent something too. Hmm. Let's see.
I'd love to invent something for my aching legs (they get tired and achy more often these days - don't really know why) but there's already the iSqueeze.
Ah - it would great if there were something to stop me from feeling like peeing so many times at night - but well, if you gotta go, you'd betta go! Besides, there's already the adult diaper, it's just horrible to imagine myself wearing one.
And what I would really really like, is a remote control that can switch on (or off) any appliance in the house. So I don't have to bend/stretch/walk. However, I'm pretty sure that some of the rich and famous already have a similar device in their homes.
Sigh. I guess I'm not too good at the inventing thing. Good thing God invented the husband - to massage my aching legs (and back and arms and wherever else aches), and to switch stuff on/off or fetch things for me. Unfortunately, that still doesn't solve the peeing problem, but as I said - if you gotta go, you'd betta go!
