November Sparklers 2014....22 boys, 22 girls born! Please update us!

eyemom, I feel you, I only have one bra that is comfortable now, will have to order more online. None of my shorts fit anymore, and I only found one pair that fit so I'll have to order more online. I'm soooooo going to really make an effort at getting fit and dropping weight once macie comes along. I guess retailers assume pregnant women only come in sizes small, medium and Maybe large. I'm on the larger side of large, ugh.

Missy, I think you will be getting relief soon. I used to get up at least every 2 hours to pee at night, lately I've been getting up only once in the middle of the night to go, and then a few times around wake up time. It seems like I stopped having to get up all the time around the start of second trimester.

Mariemo, heartburn sucks. My doctor prescribed omeprazole (prilosec) but I've been taking it before I got pregnant. I was taking Zegarid, which is omeprazole along with Sodium Bicarbinate (active ingrediant in baking soda and Alka Seltzer) but it raises blood pressure and I had to quit that, as well as Zyrtec for allergies, that increases bp too. *sigh. I'm just in bad shape all round, lol. Can't breath, blowing bloody snots out every morning. Oh, and the carpal tunnel has reared it's ugly head too. Have to sleep on my back at night with wrist braces on or my hands will start hurting soooooo bad.
And I can't spell for Shite anymore. It really bothers me, I've always known how to spell everything like a walking dictionary and now I misspell and have to go back and correct so much it is rediculous! Seems like my brain has gone to mush, forget stuff all the time. Anyone else have that problem?
 
It's frustrating, right cncem??? I welcome the boob changes actually because I am quite small normally! I just wish I got to keep them after I was done with pregnancy and nursing and everything! I swear after all that with DD, mine were smaller than ever! I wouldn't mind buying more bras if I thought I'd get more than a few months use out of them. The one I have is one of my "pregnant bras" from when I was pg with DD. The other two (cheapies) did not survive (one totally busted, the other the band all stretched out). :dohh:

I hope you can find something to fit your comfortably! It's ridiculous since women come in all kinds of sizes. And then it seems like once you do find something perfect, they want to charge an arm and a leg. So frustrating!

Oh, and I'm glad I'm not the only one with the bloody boogers LOL. :haha:

Interesting that you mentioned the spelling thing. I've been having the hardest time thinking of the words and names I want to say!
 
I'm due Nov. 11th the day before my birthday. This is my third pregnancy. Lost the first 2 before 10 weeks. So happy i've made it to 17 weeks.
 
Yea, I was joking with my husband who was admiring my larger boobs and said wait till I'm breastfeeding. They will be pornstar big, and you can't touch them. They will hurt like a sonofagun, lol.

One pair of maternity shorts, second hand. They're from Target, so I'll just have to order them online, so no big. But where to get proper maternity bras? I found a regular bra that I really like, but no "maternity" ones.
 
Congrats seaturtle!! Welcome to the club! (I feel like this is a special little club, and I'm a "November Sparkler" with Jazz hands, lol) I'm sorry about your previous losses though. I lost one at less than 2 months and was devastated.
 
Oh, these bras aren't anything special like "maternity bras." They're just regular bras that I bought specifically for my pregnancy before. Ones that I didn't spend much money on because I figured I wouldn't be that size for long. And I was right...but wasn't thinking about needing them again for subsequent pregnancies! What region of the world are you in, cncem? I found some cheapies (some good, others...not so much) at Marshall's and TJ Maxx.

lol I have had similar discussions with my husband about the boobs and then breastfeeding! I didn't think mine stayed that sore for long, but it's still hard for me to think of them as a sexual thing while I'm using them to feed my LO. I remember with DD, I woke up one morning really engorged and I was supposed to go to a pool party. I put on my regular pre-preg swim suit and whoooooaaaaa nooope nope nope. I really did feel like a porn star with my hard-as-rocks melons in my swimsuit that normally accommodated my small boobs just fine! :rofl: I switched to clothes, didn't care to swim anyway. :-/

Glad you know where you can find some good shorts when you need them!

Seaturtle! Hi and welcome! You're due the day after me. I had a loss in between my DD and this pregnancy, so sorry for your losses. :hugs: So great that you're now 17 weeks (almost 18!)--hope you're settling in where you can enjoy being pregnant a bit. ;)
 
I'm in Texas, US. I found the bra that I love at Ross. I won't say the size, but it's a d cup, and it just fits so comfy. I have a TJ Maxx just down the street, I need to check that place out before I go online to order shorts, they may just have some that will fit me.
 
I have a whole range of bras starting at an A cup upto an E cup still from my last pregnancy so I'm just working my way across my drawer as I grow lol.
 
TJ Maxx is kinda hit or miss I think, but sometimes I can find something awesome. I like to try there first for bras because they often have some really good ones in a range of sizes that are relatively inexpensive. Or some real cheapies for like $6-9, but those are the ones that did not survive.

Lol hopeful that's awesome. :D
 
Hi everyone new here. I'm due November 14th with my second. I have a 22 month old son. Looking forward to getting to know all you.

Welcome ladies :wave: and congratulations :yipee: I will add you both to the front page.
Tell us a bit more about yourselves?... Xxx
 
My RLP is murder, brings tear to my eyes it happens on both sides.
Killer when it happens when i get out the car i go stand up get pain double back over, what others must think lol
 
Welcome Ladies!

My boobs stay the same... But they've really been hurting this past week. Super sore and wearing a bra makes them more so.
 
It seems like it was all at once this week I grew out of my jeans and shorts. I got some maternity shorts this weekend and a couple of those cheap-o belly bands that keep your regular pants from falling down. I hope that helps me get a little more wear out of all my work slacks. I think a new bra will be in order next weekend.
 
I'm finally starting to get a bit big for some of my jeans, but I've just been mostly wearing tights and maternity shirts to work. I went and got sized for a new a bra and apparently I'm around the same size 36C as before I got pregnant, but the girl said I'd also fit into a 36D :/
 
Before I was pregnant I was a 36D...now my boobs are massive...I don't even know what size. The 36 DD I bought is not fitting
