What were your biggest pregnancy surprises and pet peeves?

I might as well bring up my mother-in-law... 😁
The entire pregnancy, she’s been pushing these herbal teas and random concoctions on me. I can't even mention a broken nail without her having some "natural remedy" ready. It's madness. At one point, I didn't even want to visit, so she started sending over these tinctures through my husband...
My husband knows the drill. He brings home these weirdly colored, foul-smelling teas and immediately tosses them straight in the trash the second he walks through the door. 😂
But she won't quit...
What’s really getting under my skin lately is her telling us not to buy certain things because she'll get them, or that she already bought them and will give them to us. Except, nothing ever shows up. I could go into labor tomorrow and she'd still be stalling. I don't know what she's waiting for—maybe she thinks the baby's eye color determines which supplies we need. 🙂🤷 🙂
