During the past week I have felt the baby move more. She/he seems to nap during school and then right around 4 wake up. My belly is also starting to "pop". In other words it is getting big. Certain dress pants still fit and all of my jeans still fit. I did try on my spring/summer bermuda shorts and I had only one pair fit! :( Due to this I went straight to Target and purchased a belly band. It seems to work with the shorts and might work with the pants as well. While at Target I also bought my first pair of maternity dress pants ($16). I don't really need them, but they were on sale. I will probably wear them in the coming weeks. I've had to wear cardigans a lot hear lately because I feel I am starting to show. Since I haven't told anyone at work I am still trying to hide my belly. I have been wearing dresses more, but hate wearing the leggings. Leggings and hose are to constricting right now. I need to find a comfy pair.
Brett and I went to several baby stores over the weekend to get ideas of what is out there. We had a lot of fun looking at everything. We got some good ideas on things we like and things we don't like.
I also ordered a diaper bag from Pottery Barn. It looked really big, so I thought it would work for a summer/beach bag for down the road. Well it came in and it looks more like a bag to take to Troy games.
