I'm lucky that my maternity clothes from last time match up season wise. I need just a few pairs of pants and casual dresses because I sold some of those, but I really won't have to but much more than bras.

I've ordered some new stuff from Old Navy since getting pregnant. Their jeans fit me best and I love the side panel for early on. I ordered some clearance stuff over the weekend including shorts for next summer that I figure I can wear PP. Last time I only had one pair of shorts and I didn't like them. I'll need more long sleeve stuff this time, I'm assuming since I'll show earlier.
I'm not having the insane blump I had last time and it's unsettling. Most of my body shape change happened around that area (what up, FUPA?) so I guess it's there just not as prevalent? It's weirding me out.

Since I had a May baby last time around, all my maternity clothes should be seasonally appropriate. I have to get them out of bins when we get home from this trip, inventory, and see. I might need/want a few new things but hopefully I’ll be mostly set. I might do a StitchFix maternity since I will likely need a dress for my brother’s wedding in December. It’s casual but my only maternity dress last time was one I wore to my shower in spring.

jessila, I swear by this point last year time I couldn’t fasten my jeans already but no change this time yet. It’s good but a little strange. But I also had some permanent body changes in that area too.

Oh, I got a message today from my MW’s office that my vitamin D is low. Sigh. But no surprise. I took an additional supplement all through my pregnancy with DD and it never got to normal levels. And before that I was on a high dose pill and still couldn’t get to normal levels.

Well this is just great...one of my coworkers who I work closely with just informed the office that she has the flu. (what makes this even worse is that she was in the office yesterday and today with pink eye). Seriously, why do people come into work if they are that sick. Oh no! I hope you don't catch anything

I had my 12 week appointment today and everything went well. Of course, I couldn't pee when I got there even though I pee every 20 minutes at home and I drank a ton of water. She said it was fine. We were able to get the HB on the doppler so it was nice to hear. She also said I could take sudafed for my sinus headaches if I only need them every once in a while since my blood pressure was low.

I stayed up later last night (until 10pm, lol) and don't think I drank enough water yesterday. Today I feel gross.

I have been snacking all day...it's the only thing that's keeping the nausea at bay. At least the peanuts I'm scarfing down have protein, right ?

anyone have any tips for this disgusting taste in my mouth?! It is seriously so nasty. I'm over it already. I hope it goes away soon. I may just have to carry mouthwash around with me lol. I've been using mints and lemon candies but it only clears it up for a few minutes. The only thing that makes it even remotely better is brushing my teeth but can't exactly do that all day. I wonder if I should take pepcid or something...

I was so hungry at lunch that I ate the small lunch I brought and then got a McDonald's sandwich. I'm still a little hungry. I forgot about this always hungry thing.

I had a Burger King fish sandwich and fries and an Icee for lunch. I was feeling so crappy I just shoveled it in. Now I feel much better. DD ate a burger bun but oh well.

I have been ravenous through lunch time and then want nothing to do with food after 4pm. The struggle is real.

We stopped by McDonald's for dinner. I was with MIL--we picked Reese up for gymnastics--and I mentioned getting HER McDonald's because she is exhausted and starving. But really, I just wanted it.
