TTC and Beyond!

[pdxmom]

Sonia- I like how you just keep ignoring my bump pic request...lol I mean, 14 weeks...you are gonna have to give us one soon!

Amelia-Hang in there, it's still early. I know it's hard and seems like forever, but the next week or so should tell you more. For now, you are definitely pregnant!

Hahaha not ignoring u Hun just tht I don't have any from after 8 weeks...in fact I've lost 10 lbs since then so there's really not much to show...however I will put one up in a day or two...promise

 

[jury3]

Ok...I'm holding you to it And even if there isn't much to show, you have to start somewhere!

Here's my bumpdate. 5weeks vs 12weeks to be fair I think a lot of it is bloat too though because I've unfortunately been pretty backed up Which is part of why I think my back was hurting so much

 

[clynn11]

Eeeek Ash look at your wittle baby bump!!!

 

[asmcsm]

Yep, there's definitely a little something there!

Julie - I'm still wearing my normal undies. I wear things all the time. My belly is starting to move up towards my ribs so maybe that's helping? But I've defo got a flat spot below my baby belly where my undies sit and my scrubs sit. I'll have to post a pic too...I feel huge. When I sit, my stomach digs into my rib cage. It actually causes some tingling on one side. Kind of feels like when your foot falls asleep, only it's right below my ribs.

^^^lol thongs, not things...

Aww cute bump!


I posted mine back on Wednesday.
As for the underwear, I just wear my regular pairs but lower. My bump starts below my underwear because she's so low but I just refrain from wearing pairs that are too tight. Maybe even go up a size in them.

Now that is a bump Rachel!! Wow!!! Love it.

You too Ash finally have a lil bumpie.. Just you wait, this next month it'll grow so much!!

P.s. I still love my thongs (since I wear leggings every frickin dayyy lol) and low rise undies too, they sit under my bump well so it works out great.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Your bump is so low Amanda. I think mine looks more like your first one. I think part of it is my gut lol but the majority of it is rock hard.

I just looked back at my early "bump" pics....I can't believe how skinny I am in real life. Now I feel like a heffer. For fun, I'll post my first bump pic at 5 weeks....

 

[asmcsm]

Rachel you were so tiny! But you have a beautiful bump so don't feel like a heffer!

Thanks Morgan, I know, it feels like its just popped up over night. Only going to pop more! I have such a short torso though so it's going to just be all huge round belly and I'm gonna have serious feet in my ribs because there's just nowhere else for baby to go.

 

[TTCaWee1]

Lol I have no torso either Ashlee. You can see from my early pic. There's like an inch between my hip and my rib lol.

I know it's all baby but ugh. I'm only half way and this belly is pretty far out already. I have a feeling I'll be that girl who looks normal from behind, then I turn to the side and you're like WHOA!!

Come on ladies, bring on the bumps and lumps!

Your bump is so low Amanda. I think mine looks more like your first one. I think part of it is my gut lol but the majority of it is rock hard.

It really is lol. It's so hard to sit down with it being so low because it hangs onto my lap and feels like I'm squishing it, so I have to sit up tall & straight which is so uncomfortable for me (I have terrible posture lol.) Pretty sure this will have to be my last pregnancy because I don't think my body could physically handle another lol.

I have such a short torso though so it's going to just be all huge round belly and I'm gonna have serious feet in my ribs because there's just nowhere else for baby to go.

My first was like that. She was long (20") at birth so she was way down low, hitting my cervix but her feet were lodged way up in my ribs. I barely remember feeling Hannah in my ribs because she was low as well (and laying kinda sideways/sunny-side-up) and this baby is nowhere near my ribs. I don't feel any movement above my belly button most days but my ribs still feel squished from my bump overall.

I have a feeling I'll be that girl who looks normal from behind, then I turn to the side and you're like WHOA!!

LOL! I'm so tired of people saying that I don't even look pregnant from behind and they're shocked when I turn around or whatever. Not saying I'm huge and think I look pregnant from all over but still... I don't care if I don't LOOK pregnant, I sure as heck FEEL pregnant and uncomfortable lol. Plus, I'm waddling like crazy so how can I not look pregnant from behind? LOL.

 

[goldstns]

Oh you girls just wait!!!!

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

Here was my bump at 11+3. I can't hide much longer!!

 

[asmcsm]

Aww Britt your starting to get a little bump too ❤️

 

[CantHrdlyWait]

I know! I can't even hide it in clothes anymore!!! My jeans are so uncomfortable.

 

[asmcsm]

I HATE wearing my jeans! Lol my coworkers have been noticing it's growing too lol. They're like "awe look it your little bump" it's barely there but my stomach was fairly flat before so it's obvious enough that they noticed.

So while everyone else is getting crazy vivid dreams, I'm instead getting stupid ex boyfriend dreams. All this week, every night a different ex pops up. Apparently it's very common for pregnancy dreams, but id rather go back to the sex dreams from last week that didn't include the exes lol.
