You go to CVS and this is what you buy. I haven't been to a CVS in 3 years. They just don't have a lot of the chain pharmacies(except for target and Safeway) out here in CA. In FL you had a Walgreens or CVS on almost every street corner. I was a regular at Walgreens and when I was bored I would go just to look at makeup, lotion, and hair accessories. But today, the beginning of my third trimester I have no interest in my face, hair or the quality of my skin. The third trimester has come on with a vengeance and as you can see from the pic I'm not enjoying it. By the way.... This CVS must have been designed by a pregnant woman. All these products were on the same aisle right in front of the entrance. All the other useless crap was in the back of the store and on the other side. I didn't have to walk through crappy beach toys,cheap tourist shirts, and processed foods to get what I needed. It was a pleasant surprise for my aching back and pelvis. Also wanted to note for everyone wondering why I bought pads, No I'm not peeing the bed.... Yet. Those pads are for labor. They are also handy to have around for newborns. It's easy to change them on a pad that you don't have to wash or wipe off. Cause let's face it, sometimes you can't get that diaper on fast enough before the next event happens.
And let me add one other funny but embarrassing fact about buying these items together. Don't bring your toddler if you can help it. The last thing you want to do is draw more attention to your particular state by having your toddler throw a fit on the floor while clutching the basket of unpurchased "personal items" because she wants to carry the basket by her self. Jeez!! C'mon kid, give me a break!! Even the cashier was embarrassed for me and I'm sure she has seen a lot of strange things go through her line. Pregnancy and motherhood are very humbling. And you have to find the humor in it, otherwise being a parent will make you crazy.
