Ok. I just spent a good 20 minutes searching the web for some new maternity clothes. I still have some from my other pregnancies, but I sold some... mostly in the size that I would need now. Ugh.
When did you start wearing maternity clothes? (read, how far along were you? Obviously you started wearing them when you were pregnant!) I think with each pregnancy I try to hold off a little longer and each pregnancy I find myself needing to wear them earlier and earlier. With Joseph I was excited to sport that panel belly and long shirts that made a bump out of nothing. And while I am very excited about the baby that is growing in my belly, I am not as excited about my belly growing. The first trimester is such an awkward time. When we announced to friends that we are expecting, I can't even tell you how many people immediately turned their eyes towards my stomach. It makes me feel SO self conscious. And while I have not gained a single pound I have noticed growth. I know, the baby is the size of a bean, but my belly, it is not.
So, if you see me wearing some panel belly jeans and a long shirt don't feel the need to touch my belly and feel for the baby. It's still a bean. And in another 7 weeks when I will most likely look like I'm going to give birth any day, don't say anything. If you must, just compliment my panel jeans and not so long anymore shirt.

you need to do side ways photos of yourself and post them each month. I know, i know, you just love me so much for this wonderful suggestion; but i love to see the month to month changes and it will be fun to look back on; i hope you do it. and no you may not hit me the next time you see me.
I second that request! GREAT idea:)
What?! I've been out of the loop! Comgratulations!
