I was 9 mos prego in August of 91. it really wasn't as bad as I expected or as dreadful as everyone was convinced. We had 2 window AC units--one which cooled our whole downstairs and one for the bedroom I was set! That baby boy just turned 16 yesterday.
You know, I don't think it's been all that bad either. That has been the first thing everyone said from the beginning when I told I was due in August--"oh you're in for it, Tennessee in August"...but honestly I'm not sure I'm any more miserable than I would be if I wasn't pregnant. The heat is just miserable, whether you're enormously pregnant or not!
Now if we didn't have a/c, I would probably be singing a different tune :)
I completely agree with the ability to wear flip flops! It's the little things that make a pregnancy better. :) I can't remember the last time I had a "real" pair of shoes on.
I'm thankful for Friday and good blogs to read. :)
