Ohhh... Another symptom is shortness of breath. Trying to lead my preschool class for circle time and I need an oxygen tank Oh my gosh, yes! I walked down to my mailbox last night (like, 4 houses away) and one of my neighbors was down there and stopped to chat and I could barely follow the conversation I was tired. And forget about going up and down my stairs. If I change floors I’m staying there for at least half an hour.

I usually end up grocery shopping when DH is at work so I kind of have no choice 😞DS now likes to pull the groceries out of the bags for me which helps a little. I just don't remember being this tired with DS 🤷♀️

Now it is dinner, homework, baths, etc.

catladymeow I have the opposite problem with maternity clothes. I'm too short, so everything is constantly too big while my regular clothes rapidly get too small. The full panels go up to my armpits and the shirts almost to my knees. If it doesn't warm up faster, I'll be in dire need of maternity pants. My belly band can only hold in/up so much before it's horribly uncomfortable.

catladymeow, I'm only 5'7" and I have a difficult time with maternity shirts. No advice for finding longer shirts. I just wear long camisoles underneath so my belly panel doesn't show.

Hell, I'm only 5'4" but most of my maternity shirts from Old Navy don't cover my panel and I wear a size L. I don't get it. Some of my Gap ones are okay, but still ride up. i don't think clothing manufacturers understand how pregnant women look. imapenguin, my new life goal is to get a laundry chute now.

Okay so somewhere out there is the perfect height woman for maternity clothes! I'm 6' and it's definitely not me. I tried side panel jeans so I didn't have the too short belly panel problem but with too short shirts I just end up with my lower belly showing a lot. Can it please warm up now so I can just wear dresses?

It was a surprise when we moved in. The closet it’s in (in the kids’ bathroom) was so full when we looked at the house that we didn’t notice it. It goes straight into the laundry room, so I keep a basket under it and DD drops her clothes straight in before her bath.

Now it is dinner, homework, baths, etc. This is true. Even though I worked when I was pregnant with DS I was able to sit at work when needed and then I would crash on the couch when I got home. Now I SAH but I'm constantly moving around and I don't stop till after bedtime. DH works late a lot so most of it is on me.

I'm normally narrow in the hips so the fact that I can't wear a belt doesn't help. I've been living mostly in leggings and I can't wait till the summer so that I can wear dresses.

as a fellow short person-- fold the belly panel over on itself! i can't stand how it feels pulled all the way up to my neck, and it holds your pants up better when it's doubled over.
