Lots of changes happen to mommies-to-be as the pregnancy wears on: In addition to getting bigger, I've learned they can also become a bit...clumsier.
Today when I got home I saw that Helen's white shirt had a few food stains on it, and her skirt had chocolate smears. It was almost a full meal on her outfit. I asked what happened and she said that things got a little messy while she ate lunch. Apparently, when parts of you get rounder, it's harder to prevent food from falling on you. It may be because pregnant midsections force women to stay farther away from plates and tables, and there's more room for droppage.
While I laughed, Helen said that I had better get used to it, because having a baby meant lots of dirty shirts and pants for the parents. While I agree with that statement, I always thought the food-stained clothes happened after the baby came!
