Your 40th weekly challenge is to celebrate that your baby has been on the outside longer than she was on the inside! There are many fun ways to celebrate this milestone. We’ve done cocktails and sushi (pictured) and a moms night out at the hot tubs in the past.
Inside Out Party at Blowfish Sushi
Unless you’re currently knocked up, I suggest wrangling a posse of girlfriends and doing all those things you weren’t allowed to do (in good conscience) while pregnant, stuff like:
- Drink wine
- Eat soft cheese
- Luxuriate in a hot-tub
- Ride an ostrich or mechanical bull
- Go bungee jumping
These are just my own ideas, maybe you’re dying to burn a duraflame log or indulge in some other activity that has us wondering if it’s so bad for the pregnants, why do we do these things to ourselves at all… Have at it!

Love it!
What is wrong with the Duraflame log. I am no longer pregnant, but this caught my attention!
Thanks
I remember seeing a warning label on the firelog, but I will make sure… not trying to give anyone a bad rep.
Ok, so I was right and wrong. Per the nice pregnant marketing lady at Duraflame… it’s the standard Prop 65 Warning for environmental impact (but it less toxins than “normal” firewood, which doesn’t need a warning label because it is not manufactured). And here’s a link to the environmental info.
I had my Inside Out Party last night! I wanted to let you know – what a great idea! Lots of fun was had by us (only four of us… well, five before bedtime came). We played DDR (a no-no pregnancy according to my midwife), had cheap-o deli turkey, Brie, caffeinated coffee, and an excellent Merlot. Thanks for such a great and fun idea!!!
I think I would need the hot tub after riding a mechanical bull! Sounds fun!
Love it!!
Caesar salad and mass quantities of diet coke!
Fabulous ideas. Love this blog.
HA! At some point during my pregnancy, I realized it was odd that I was diligently avoiding deli meat but I was OK with eating french fries.
AHH! This is awesome! Having mine early since the kiddo was 6 weeks early! Best idea ever!
*ah, there was more to that, and 9 months falls on thanksgiving! LOL so my friends decided on a 8month inside outside parts. I may be slightly sleep deprived*
