The beginning of my third trimester was a lot more difficult than I anticipated.

For one, we moved out of our apartment and into our new suburban home. That was especially difficult because we had to get all new furniture, since the apartment furnishings are supposed to stay at the room. At first I thought it was a great idea, we could get all new stuff and not have to worry about transporting the new stuff from the old place.

But then we had to go to so many furniture stores - like SO many - and choose living room, master bedroom, baby's room, and dining room sets. Not to mention, paint the walls in the house, yellow walls will NEVER be okay with me..

Hito and my family were good help, but Leo's father and his men ended up doing the most work. From tiling the master bathroom, to planting a flower bed out front, to bringing in the new furniture and assembling it, they made good time. And it was a kind of funny sight to see fifteen or so dangerous looking men with tattoos and scars carry in my new fluffy black couch and the baby's new crib.

Without them, I'm sure moving would have been an even bigger shit-show.

Secondly, my stomach has now swelled up to the size of a watermelon. Like a BIG watermelon. It makes sleeping nearly impossible, even with the added maternity body pillow. I have been experiencing baby kicks as well - perfectly aimed at my ribs and other organs. This baby will probably be a great soccer player with these kicks.

But the final reason actually turned out to be the most difficult... I'm so fucking horny all the time.

While you can't get a heat cycle while pregnant, it feels like I'm perpetually in heat without actually being in heat - essentially, my sexual appetite has increased tenfold. Plus, since Leo is my mate, the scent of me being pregnant has actually staved off his usual rut as well - which is normal - but not helpful to me now.

Before pregnancy, we could pretty much go until I tapped out from exhaustion after a few rounds. But now? It's like I'm never satisfied. Now Leo has to be the one to stop us when he reaches his limit, my appetite ravenous. And as my stomach has grown, our usual positions have only been more and more uncomfortable - for both of us.

I thought it wouldn't get fixed and had said as much to Hito, no filter as usual. When he had a helpful suggestion...

"Have you tried using a hammock?"

"No, of course not, what kind of question is that? Why would I use a hammock?"

"Well, I had more than one of my omega patients inform me that it helped with the pregnancy bedroom issues in a much more comfortable way."

And so... naturally, I got one...

"It doesn't look too bad in the corner," I muse as I watch Leo struggle to hang up the hammock from the bed.

"Please don't ask me to move it again..."

"I'm serious, I like it there." He breathes a sigh of relief. "Are you done? Can I sit in it?"

"Sure." Leo hoists me up off the bed, thankfully not grunting at my weight, which has multiplied exponentially this trimester - another fun side effect. I have gone from around 79kg (175 lbs) to nearly 90kg (200lbs). It is safe to say I am nowhere near my weight goals anymore.

Certainly I'm heavy, but Leo still carries me to the hammock and nestles me safely inside. It is in a single seater chair style and is actually very sturdy now that Leo has finished attaching it to the beam above.
