ldubhawksfan I'm getting down my maternity clothes this weekend. I need stretchy waistbands in my life.
I started wearing my mat jeans with a low waste this week, but I think it gave me wicked muffin top with my blump. I might have to go full panel until this um firms up to a bump? I don't know what is going on with my body, but it's not cute!! 😢

My blump is ridiculous. I'm so self conscious of it. If I don't suck in my stomach, I probably look 4 months pregnant. Sucking it in, probably 3. I should look back at my weekly pics.
+1. I don't understand how no one at work has called me out on it...but I'm the only female at my company, so maybe guys are just oblivious.
Same, but since at least my super was here with my pregnancy with DD, I feel like he has figured it out. I look fat. I've been drinking ginger ale every day for 4 weeks. I'm eating all.the.time. I think he knows what's up. But he also knows we lost a baby in Jan so he won't say anything.

My MS has let up a bit the past couple of days. As in, it's mostly confining itself to the morning, and after I eat something it settles down. This I can handle.
No big plans this weekend. My H has football tomorrow AM, so A and I will probably go to a park or something.
ldubhawksfan - I really don't want to move either. It looks like Pregnancy has but GKU and 3T hasn't. I just don't like change.
I mean, a bigger BMB would be cool, like back in the old bump days (when I was a creeper), but I really enjoy you ladies too.
But, correct me if I'm wrong since Ive only lurked on threads, SM only has 250 members, so how is that going to be bigger bmbs? Like 2 new members?? I really wish there was just the push to keep this a forum and get the word out to get new Members.
I honestly don't know. It didn't look too active over there. I just created a name so I had it, but I was too busy last night to keep up with it all.

Just do it. I'm wearing elastic waist shorts. I look a little muffin toppy. But I'm comfortable. It's way too hot here for full panel.
RE Maternity Jeans - I saw yesterday that my old navy actually carries them in the store and got excited. I'll probably go back next week when I have time to look. So which is better? Full panel or side inserts?

I liked full panel in third tri last time, but not really before then.

I busted into hairband trick territory this morning. Would have gone full blown maternity jeans, but the ones I got from Zulily this week fit awkward.
Side note: Anyone ever found a good maternity slip type thing for under dresses? Bought some dresses for work and one has white stripes that are basically see thru.

Team Full Panel. But really only if I have to choose, because I'm actually Team No Pants.

I have a feeling my dress collection is going to grow this summer.

Plus 1. Also, I'm wearing full panel maternity pants because I never lost the weight from last time. Ugh.

I'm a full 20 lbs heavier than I was with my son. I am already dreading looking at maternity pants. I was going to get a couple of pairs of shorts from Old Navy but the reviews were not good. I think I'm going to try a couple of pairs of shorts, a pair of jeans, a few skirts, and maybe a pair of capris for the summer. I have some fall/winter clothes from my son that I hope I can still fit in for the cool temps. I know I am lucky because I don't need to "dress up" for the summer but I will still need some nice things for when school starts back up again in the fall.
Anyone know where I can get some cheap but nice clothes online?

I'll probably stick around. Honestly I think people take all of this way too personally. I like having this place and I'm super happy that some of my old boards have migrated to Facebook, but at the end of the day it's a forum on the internet. It's super cool making friends and it was REALLY helpful during my IF stuff, but none of is personal and I can't get as dramatic or invested as many people have.
There were some legit points (not having a viable plan, needing more help) but, there was some downright nasty things as well. I don't play on the internet for the drama so I'm not sure the people in the mass exodus are the people I want to follow.

I'm not blumping or showing like I was with DD. It's so weird. I gave up pants with buttons after my first pregnancy so mostly I've been wearing pants with a stretchy waistband. So basically I'm doing fine in my regular clothes. It's so weird since it's my second pregnancy and I started with twins.

I'm a teeny bit less bloated than last week, which is nice but of course has made me observe myself like a hawk to make sure other symptoms were still there!
I continue to fall asleep on myself by 10.15 max every night no matter what, while reassures and annoys me: I just can't watch anything in one sitting!
H is cooking me spaghetti carbonara for dinner and it smells amazing, it would be made perfect by a glass of wine or three.
I'm sticking around. I am too lazy to jump around to be honest. As you all know I am not the most active so I spend most the time lurking and trying to catch up when I can. I remember making the exodus from The Bump but I mainly made that one since I like a smaller group of people and I could not keep up! Hopefully further down the line we move to FB.
I am just exhausted right now. I need sleep - or more sleep since I actually have been getting some. My blump is so real. I guess 3rd time is the charm and my body said eff it, we are showing everyone. I havent made it FB official but will most likely soon. Everyone I interact with on the day to day knows.
Congrats to all the ladies that get to kick the needle/meds!

We have so much going on today/tomorrow I'm seriously going to just spend Sunday sleeping.
I'm giving up on salads. They are good but I'm bloated and it makes it hurt so much worse with digestion. I really want to eat healthy, but not if I'm uncomfortable the rest of the day.

I love salad but I just can't bring myself to eat them right now. I don't know why. Hoping this changes as I get into 2nd tri...

What did you decide for the job offer?
They haven't officially extended the offer from today's interview, but new boss said he got a call right after and it sounded like they will probably extend the offer in the next few days. If they do offer it I'll take it.
The interviewer basically convinced me that moving to the new plant will keep me close to corporate HQ, but give me more hands on experience so when the opportunity to promote comes up I'll be in an ideal situation. I love my company, so this is pretty much my goal.
Plus no travel right now sounds like a really good thing.
Yay for a good scan sarahandben108! I have a lot of shorts from J.Crew that are elastic waist band, which is perfect because you can just wear under bump/blump and they still look nice and you can wear them when not prego. You can find them for $20 on sale or at Factory if you time it right. I also wore a lot of maxi dresses or other dresses that were just flowy cotton, not really maternity, and wore them again after pregnancy as well.
For school-appropriate stuff, I really liked Gap's demi panel pants. I have them in ankle length and black and I could wear them every day if I needed to. I also spent $$ on Seraphine tops, but I wore them for YEARS because I was nursing and also because I like a longer length in a shirt.
Hi everyone! I'm staying. It was hard enough for me to come out of lurkdom and start posting here. I'm not always the most active poster, but I'm here for the long haul.
I'm so, so happy that I have this weekend off. I haven't had a weekend off since I had my daughter 2+ years ago, and it's going to be amazing...even if we end up doing nothing at all. We might do Disney!
