Standing Up and Sitting Down

The last days of pregnancy are taking their toll...

W: (easing down onto the sofa) If only moving about wasn't such an effort.
Me: Poor thing.
W: And then once I'm down, getting comfortable is another matter entirely.

The bump moves a little.

W: (to the bump) Yes, you're alright aren't you? (short pause) No answer. He's very comfy.
Me: It's going to be a shock to his system when he finally emerges. No wonder they cry.
W: Oh bugger, and now I need the loo.

W manoeuvres forward slightly.

W: Give me a push?

I push on W's back a little.

W: Thanks darling. Ohhh. Getting up without making an effortful noise is something else I look forward to.

I think back to the last time I stood up after a long day. Note to self, stop the grunting noise.
