19w4d
I emailed all of my friends after my dr appt on 8/24 and let them know. I told my coworkers on 8/28 (16w0d LMP). I decided to start wearing maternity jeans that next day 16w1d. I could still fit into my regular jeans, they were just becoming increasingly uncomfortable when I sat down so I figured I might as well make the switch! Once I changed I was so much more comfortable. I tried on my jeans last week (18w4d) and they still fit, although sitting would have killed me! I think I'll just keep periodically trying them on to see if they fit. They sit pretty low so that's why I've been able to fit into them- if they were any higher I don't know if it would be possible.
For the most part I still can wear my regular shirts, some of them just aren't long enough and the stretchy belly of my jeans show. I am in the process of buying shirts now, which is a little difficult. My boobs are so big that the only shirts I look pg in are ones with empire waist, so I've been trying to stick to those. I've had a lot of luck with jeans on eBay. Since I'm so short its hard to find them around here, but I can find lots on eBay for 10-15 bucks.
I *think* I felt movement for the first time at 18w2d. It was really light and just kind of felt like a gas bubble. It's hard for me to really tell what I am feeling down there b/c of all the stretching that's going on. I'm never sure if its a ligament stretch or a the actual baby.
I go in next week for my next appt. Then we will schedule the u/s. I'm still not sure what I want to do, if I want to find out or not. Part of me really wants to and part of me doesn't. I just don't know. Benji is convinced I will find out b/c I am such a planner, but I just don't know. I went crib shopping with my mom last weekend. That was fun, but overwhelming. I have no idea what I want. Too many options and I just don't know!
I am really feeling great now. I don't feel sick at all and my belly's not big enough to get in the way. I do wish my belly looked bigger, although my mom says to watch what you wish for!
