chall - I can still reach the bench, but i have started knocking things over with my stomach.
AA - Now all I need is a visit from out overly-eager safety lady.
Cath - My PI would probably just tell me to go find a larger lab coat from the pile o' coats that got left behind. However, I am sure some percentage of women would be all too happy to buy themselves a maternity lab coat.
Tideliar- Glad you enjoyed it. I am not sure how long that top button is going to hold. Hopefully it doesn't take anyone's eye out if it does pop off.
I broke down and bought a maternity lab coat.. they really do sell them! :) But there is no solution to the problem of working in a tissue culture hood.. your belly will always be in the way!
Arlenna - Me too. It makes me feel like I'm not the only one running around the lab in this condition.
EGF - Thanks!!
LabMom - I can understand why. In my old lab, a lab coat was absolutely required and I would have had to get something. Fortunately, in my current lab it's only a big deal if you are from the safety department. Besides, I am so damn hot right now that I can barely stand to wear the extra layer.
SG - Girl...you so crazy. I can't wait to get rid of this. Actually, a few of my friends have said the same thing...they actually miss it.
CE - Thanks!!
UR - Hmmm. Not a bad idea. Maybe I'll do an updated photo. It's certainly gotten bigger.
Soil Mama - People certainly seem to get out of the way now when they see me coming. I guess they should since i probably have the weight advantage. :)
Dimitris - I think there is a good chance I'll produce a little geek. Besides all the science talk, the father is a software developer. We like to think we are nerdy in a cool way. :)
I am a post-doctoral researcher trying to develop into a tenure-track faculty member. When I am not geeking out in the lab, I might be found reading, playing with my cats, playing computer games or shopping for shoes.
I also love getting email, so feel free to contact me at microbio.xx AT gmail DOT com

haha, I like it. :)
I loved wearing my lab coat with my big belly, but mostly for the reactions for the people who saw me.
funny :). I wonder if the little one will become a scientist hearing all that science talk...
Cute! Definitely a new way to track the baby bump. :)

Hey, can you balance a rack of eppendorf tubes on that?
TR - LOL! I think I probably could. That will be the next photo.
