Im hearin' u - my stomach is huge by the end of the day and in the morning i only have a little pregga belly. Actually im a bit mortified at how quick i started to show - i had a podge at 8 wks & this is my first baby. Oh well - different body shapes pop out quicker, i guess!
Ive given up on wearing pants cos none of them fit comfortably - i just wear dresses at the moment (cos its summer in Australia right now anyway). Im going to buy one or 2 pairs of maternity pants but im gonna wait a couple more months so they will hopefully last me till D-day!
Me too, my jeans came out of the drier and they barely fit! Had to try wearing them to stretch them out today but it was annoying! Maybe I have to get one of those belly waist bands from Target or just get the maternity jeans!
About sleeping... what is with the 4-5 am thing? It doesn't happen to me every night, but alot, and I at least wake up probably 5 times to go to the bathroom. Then I'm tired all day. Seems like I have one good day, then one tired day. Luckily I haven't been sick or anything else so I appreciate that. I'm about 12 weeks and this is my first.
omg the whole sleeping this is just terrible!!! i get in bed at 10 fall asleep at 12 and wake up around 4am and stuggle to try to get some more rest... my 2 yr old sleeps til 9 so waking up at 4-5 am *****... ughh how can i get more zzz'z im really doing all the suggestions but still nothing!!! gotta love it
I'm 12 weeks today with my first, and I swear my waist grows something like 3-4 inches between the morning and the evening every day, and then shrinks again overnight. I guess it's mostly just bloat/gas, but soooo much of it!!! I haven't needed maternity stuff yet - I think because I normally have a small waist relative to my bum, so almost all of my pants were loose at the waist to start with. It's so interesting how our bodies work!
isnt it fun??
This is my third pregnancy and by now i just have to laugh about all the wonderful things we have to deal with!! i persinally am the bigest klutz when i preg i could trip over my own feet, i was really little before i got preg with my first so i would forget i couldnt fit into the same places, and i would try to sneak past or in between ppl and i would slam my stomach rite into them (so embarrising)!!
i now am preg with my third (four year okld son, 11 month old daughter) and i no exactly what u mean by sleepless nights i try to go to bed at 9 p.m. just to wake up and 3 a.m. and not be able to go back to sleep, or feeling like your are going to pee your pants everytime u cough, sneeeze, or fart!!
being preg is an amazing thing and it can be sooo much fun, but it is also very draining.. try to injoy it!! hope you the best of luck!!
