Every pregnancy book I've read says "do not, under any circumstances, change your hair style during pregnancy".  I think they believe this will lead to some sort of breakdown when you realize that shorter hair does not make your baby belly shrink.  Anyways, I got my hair cut today.  She must have cut off at least 6 inches.  I certainly didn't lose my baby belly, but I feel like I lost 10 pounds from my head!  After eating Mexican for dinner, though, I think those 10 pounds just moved down to my belly.   I just couldn't wait any longer on the haircut issue - my hair and nails are growing so fast I can hardly keep up!  I type emails all day long, and when you start mistyping because your nails are too long, it's time for a manicure.  For me, that would be every week at this pace.  My poor toenails are growing so fast, but I can't reach down to cut them!!  It takes me about 5 minutes just to put on socks in the morning, and you can just forget about any shoes with laces from this point forward.  It's too cold for open-toed shoes, so I struggled just to do a trim today and I'll have to visit my local spa for a pedicure very soon.
