I’m 32 weeks now and the amount of times I’ve googled “(blank) in pregnancy” only to find out that what I have searched is another common symptom of pregnancy!

Your feet getting bigger! My arches flattened with my first child and on top of not having any clothes that fit comfortably post-partum, I didn’t have any shoes either! I went up half a size.

The random click/pop sounds coming from bump 😂 I heard about them before but didn't expect it lol
And I knew I would need to pee more but needing to go 5 minutes after I just went because baby shifted a little bit and somehow found a bit more pee 🙈
And the heat 🥵 so much worse than I thought and it's not even hit 30° yet lol
omg I had no idea about feet getting bigger! I thought I just had swelling in my feet! But my shoes actually feel hella tight I’ve had to result to wearing my crocs rather than trainers! I think my feet may have gotten wider then!
omg the first time I heard a pop come from bump I freaked I was like wtf was that! I didn’t know babies bones would click and pop too🙈
Oh god that is the worst i absolutely hate the peeing , feel like baby plays with my bladder like a stress ball 😂😂

This is so relatable, how unfair it is that almost everything gets chucked under the 'pregnancy' umbrella and we are expected to put up with it!! Nosebleeds was the weirdest one for me!

Weaker bones 😭 which sounds ridiculous but I’ve googled it so many times 😭 I’ve broken my foot, my hand and 3 toes since being pregnant this time. And I’m not even clumsy 😭😂
