About the pregnancy cartoons

After many sleepless nights spent pondering the humorous nature of pregnancy, our yet-to-be-pregnant cartooning artist realized she was going to need some help from moms who'd been there. Happily, a beautiful collaboration between the artist and our snarky freelance mom blogger, the sarcastic journalist, sprung up to save the day! The humor was conceived together and each panel was hand-drawn by our relieved cartooning artist.

    the concept here was actually inspired by a comment about how pregnant women can't see their feet. obviously they can when they put their feet up-- but then, what about reaching down to touch your toes... much less giving yourself a pedicure?

    if you're wondering about the seat, you haven't ever gone in for a professional pedicure. i wil just admit it outright-- i'd never seen one before. thank god for google images, i just happened to find a photo of a girl getting a professional pedicure and she was indeed sitting on this funny white-toilet like throne seat which happens to have a foot-sized jacuzzi tub.

    Forget my feet...I can't even bend to shave my legs. I have to sit on the counter and use shaving cream because if I bend over in the shower, I may never get back up. I could use a pedi though...my nails are growing so fast!!!

    With my #1 I could just prop one foot up onthe counter and all my shaving and pedi needs were easy to take care of, now that I am preggs again I find myself larger faster. Not so easy this time around. forget a pedi. I need a brazilian......God forbid my boyfriend wants to videotape it.....

    I gave myself a pedicure and painted my toenails very nicely at 6 weeks. Now at 25 weeks only one toe still has the polish. I miss touching my toes comfortably.

    I look for the nail polish bottles with the longest possible screw tops, that inch or so really helps me reach my toes!

    I am to the point where I can't see my feet. and I've been there for a while now. I actually stepped on somone else's foot because I couldn't see it. I told him I was sorry and that I couldn't even see my own feet.

    Pedicurs are worth the money! If that makes you feel a little better I say go for it. Actually anything that makes you feel better, do it.

    I love this! I usually do my own but the task is a bit much. Thankfully my salon doesn't use smelly chemicals and offers an awesome tangerine scrub and wax that smells so good!

    I was on bedrest and INSISTED on getting a pedicure right before being induced!! It was relaxing, my feel were up, and it made me happy, so that's how I was able to justify getting out of bed and travelling to go get my pedicure before my son was born... lol
