15 weeks -- and starting to show it. I considered taking a belly picture a week ago, but I didn't think it looked like anything worth photographing. Now, seeing this picture, I feel like I've been fooling myself.
And it's not just my belly -- everything seems to be growing (ugh)! Except my clothing, of course, and that's been an issue. I don't think I'm quite ready for maternity clothes -- especially since I always assumed maternity clothing would be cheap. I mean, you only wear it for a few months, right? Wrong. No price cut for mommas-to-be. So, I'll continue to wrap a hair tie through the button hole of my jeans to make them fit. That should get me through a little longer.
Other things that are NOT growing: my time between bathroom visits, feet (no swelling - yet!), my wearable closet, and my energy levels. Pretty much everything else -- getting bigger.
don't forget to check with second hand clothing stores. you can pick up some really nice things for pennies on the dollar. also keep an eye on craigslist, for great deals!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you!
Love ya
I personally love the rubber band/hair-tie trick. Got me through just before my 6th month (which was when I met you all in CA). Ask friends, colleagues, church family, etc. for hand-me-downs...usually they're fashionable and in good shape (because as you said, you only wear them for a while).
