How Your Friends Can Be Your Greatest Support System Right Now
Oh, the joys of the third trimester! Or should we say, the exhaustion of it all? By now, you've probably mastered the art of the waddle, you've realized your shoes are a distant memory, and touching your toes is as likely as finding a unicorn in your backyard. The world feels like it's moving at warp speed, but you're stuck on a planet called Preggo-Wonderland, complete with its own set of gravitational laws.
Is That a Planet or Just Me?
Your belly feels like it's hosting a party, and the guest list is one – a small human who enjoys late-night dance-offs. While your body houses a full-blown production of internal Cirque du Soleil, you might find yourself reaching out for some much-needed support. Enter: your fabulous friends.
Relatable Truth Bomb: If you feel like you're impersonating a marquee letter "P" whenever you stand, you're not alone.

They even veto plans that could make you uncomfortable, instinctively slipping into roles as bodyguards, comedians, and maternal coaches.
Sucking the Juice Out of Emo-mango Moments
The third trimester brings a wealth of emotions even your most advanced meditation app can't keep up with. You've unlocked the full spectrum of feels, ranging from 'Kylie Jenner, eat your heart out' to 'did I just morph into a Pikachu?' But hey, that's where your squad comes in, offering their strength as you navigate your top-of-the-line hormonal roller coaster.
Power Punch: "The real MVPs are the friends who patiently listen to your litanies about foot cramps and Braxton Hicks contractions."
No conversation is off-limits among pals, whether it's sharing ridiculous pregnancy dreams (no, you aren't giving birth to a kitten) or the latest hiccup poke-off scores. Friends become instant therapists, laugh orgy pals, and, most importantly, the cheering squad in your corner when you need it most. They remind you that sometimes chocolate really is the answer. And if it's not, cheese is.
