Hdbd!

[honda13]

It's Wednesday and I'm sure some of us are starting to show. Show off that baby bump. Give some stats if you like. Ftm, STM, # of weeks, etc.

[honda13]

And Tapatalk won't let me upload my picture. Damn it!

[sabrinaml]

I was hoping we would eventually start this thread! This way if I actually remember to start the ticker change thread in Sunday's I won't include the bump picture part.

I'm 19 weeks tomorrow with a singleton (team green)

15w5d, STM, single babe, team green

Look at those cute bumps, ihatepizza and huskermom!

No discernible bump here. I can tell it's coming. H can't tell. I started out overweight, so it might be a little while. Only just hit 16 weeks.

On the plus side, I haven't gained any weight so far, which was my goal. Now to stick to my overall goal of hitting the low end of the weight gain range my midwife recommends!

[honda13]

*poof*
Team Green for now. 17 weeks 5 days. Singleton. STM.

[huskermom]

It's so weird to have a little bump already marshian! The first time around I didn't have much of anything til 20+ weeks.

Also, high five on the no weight gain!! I'm up 2 lbs, but I'm not complaining. My goal is pretty similar to yours. You've got this!

[honda13]

marshian, I am overweight (see HDBD pic). With my first baby I didn't really start showing until 20+ weeks like huskermom said. This time it started way sooner.

I look like a troll compared to ihatepizza and huskermom.

honda13 - Your bump is adorable! I figured I won't really show until about halfway through, guess we'll see!

Thanks!  I hate these pants though, not flattering but they fit so whatever.  I've gotten so big this time I keep wondering if there are two in there! 

[marshian]

huskermom - I go up and down two pounds day-to-day, so you're doing great too!

I wasn't eating well and therefore gained weight the past 5 years or so, always intending to lose it but never trying hard. What's been great about pregnancy is I actually feel not hungry when I'm not and do not have the desire to eat mindlessly (unlike in normal life), so I don't. And I feel full which never really happened before until I was too full, so I stop eating after a normal amount. I think that's what's really kept me on track so far. I either didn't get those feelings before or I ignored them. Hopefully it stays this way!

I'm going to need maternity work pants. I got one pair from Motherhood Maternity during their Black Friday/Cyber Monday sale and they're okay, but not the greatest. (Their full panel jeans, however, feel amazing! I almost want to wear them now even though I don't need them.) If you find anything good, let me know!

Well you ladies know how to make a girl feel special.

[sdlaura]

I finally got it to work, but now my post is below

[mreve]

My selfie skills are non existent, but I'll post one anyway. STM, 17w1d.

[honda13]

sdlaura, I find it easiest to add picture on the Tapatalk app. It's the only reason I downloaded it.

[pinecone21]

Here's one from this weekend. I was 16 weeks 2 days. STM, team pink, one baby. I don't know why my husband didn't tell me about the bit of hair sticking out.

I love all the cute bumps! I've got two pics - one of my bump, and one of how I'm still trying to hide it at work

This is my 4th pregnancy that's made it this far (will hopefully be my 3rd living baby), so my bump feels huge.  Team green.

I'm pretty sure everyone suspects at work, but they're too polite to ask.  A/S is next week and if all looks good I'll make it public.




ETA - 17 weeks +2

[lindsay]

Look at all these cute bumps!! I'll take one shortly

[teachermomtobe]

I downloaded Tapatalk to try and do a bump pic and it loads to 95% then fails. Any suggestions?

[teachermomtobe]

Okay I think I got it to work! The 16w pic is from Monday when I was 16w4d. The bump has gotten bigger since then! I did a side by side comparison since it's still small but bigger than I started with.

[lindsay]

19 weeks, STM, twins!

[cheezee]

sdlaura - random but do you know the paint color you used?? Now that we know we're team blue I want to paint our nursery navy. We have wainscoting in there and I've always said if we have a boy I want a navy/white/grey nursery!

Yep, it's called Signature Blue - the brand is Behr Premium Plus Ultra from Home Depot. It's the low VOC paint that doesn't require primer.  Our master and our nursery are both that color blue (we used the blue nursery for a girl and then a boy), and I love it. It's relaxing and conducive to sleep   I would say in person it's not quite navy - sort of a blend between royal and navy blue.
