I've been pretty enamored with the beauty of the pregnant female for years.........but recently I wanted to have more empathy for their physical experience so I did the following experiment:
I filled a 2,5qt (5# of water) hot water bottle and trapped it against my lower stomach wearing a tight girdle.
So I now feel continuous pressure, some weight, warmth and a need to pee.
With this setup I did all my chores for a day. Not uncomfortable, after an hour or so, really wasn't too aware of the difference.
Most troublesome areas I found was reaching you rear to wipe after a BM. Awkard..can't image what it's like at 9mo. Also, found i sort of did a waddle type walking gate.
Next to simulate the old DREADED enema experience at the hospital while in labor......I gave myself a small air enema, (for some cramping/contraction effect) , and then the typical 1500cc soapsuds enema.
Then tried to see which position was the most comfortable to take and hold the enema. I found the knee chest or doggy style the best.
The cramping was not pleasant at all, but I obviuosly wasn't in real labo4r real labor.
My qu4stion to the Zity mother members out there does any if this feel like your pregnancy?
