Pregnancy talk
So, I was just getting some things together for my less-pregnant-than-me friend Stephanie (see Melillo) so I started trying some shirts on to see if they still covered the belly. I can't believe it but I'm already out of most of my clothes. Note to pregnant people- it seems that gap and old navy have made their clothes this year longer than in the last few years- FYI, before you buy. I have a few gap tops I got for my birthday that are definitely long enough to last until the end. Anyway- I decided to look up online to see how big baby brother is because I haven't been following his development (don't tell him) and I'm sure he's giant already. Turns out, he is around 3 lbs. So- that would be less than one third of the size of Beau at birth and I have over 10 weeks left. Why am I so big? I have given up bending this week. I guess it's strange because I haven't really been paying attention and POW- giant. People have started telling me I look 'cute'--- hmmmm. I think that is code for 'man that's a big woman'... Silly post.....oh well.

Stephanie and I were commiserating yesterday about the clothing options - or lack thereof. I'm having trouble, too finding things that are long enough even though this baby is up in my rib cage.
Oh, and don't feel bad about not reading or staying up-to-date on baby's development...I'm a slacker mom, too!
I agree...pregnancy #2 is oh-so-different than the first. My seasons are also just off enough that things didn't work, I've had to buy a LOT. Do love the Old Navy though! It's gonna be a nutty spring watching so many of us pop out the babies.
It's gotta be a second pregnancy thing! I was just talking to my mom last night about how I feel so much bigger (sooner) and I am definately less mobile! You think it would be the other way aroudn since we have busy toddlers to keep up with! Glad you are doing well!
