18w3d with baby boy #1! Good news: I finally gained this week and am feeling slightly less tired... Must be all those veggie protein sources I've been hitting up lately! Or the bacon popcorn from last night
Also: first time NOT wearing stripes, though I can pretty much guarantee I'll be back to them next week lol
21 weeks today WOOT!! I finally took my picture. I haven't eaten anything yet, so my belly button looks a bit deflated, but I still look huge compared to last week's picture. Major growth over the past few days for me, and for Gordon - he's so strong now, and I swear I'm feeling every move he makes. Today is my husband's birthday, so I'm gearing up to make a spectacular cake for him - I will share a picture of it when it's complete.
And, thanks for all the love, ladies!! (TMI) I'm feeling better now, but still clearing my lungs and sinuses of bile. GERD is no joke - it sucks.
My favorite day! And @Nijay714, I agree with PPs. Your hair? I die!
I have a sweet potato for Thanksgiving! Still waiting for the big pop! So far still playing "fat or pregnant?" I know I look different and definitely feel different, but can't wait for the round baby belly!
DH did put my tummy last night and say, "Woah! I can FEEL a baby in there!" though. So at least I'm pregnant to the touch!
Since I'm awake I thought I'd start it. I'll post my pic later today though. Lets see all those awesome bumps!
@katieharpiceland - When the heck did that name change happen? Did I tag you early this morning without realizing the change...? I like it - it's more personal.

I totally forgot it was Wednesday . Love not having to go to work today, so I can focus on getting ready for everyone to arrive this afternoon!
Feel like I keep looking bigger every day. I'm pretty sure I've obviously "popped," which is fun. It'll be fun to see my family today, since I haven't seen any of them since being pregnant.

Happy HDBD! Lookin' good ladies! Here's a couple pics I took last night (20w 1d) that I texted to my mom to show off the bow tie maternity sash I made yesterday for our family pics this Friday!
Era: could only get one pic to attach, oh well.
@mandiroo I love the sash! Was it difficult to make?
@kali55, thank you! I was pleased with how it came out; exactly what I pictured and the right size. Not difficult. It's plaid flannel. I cut a rectangle, about 8 1/4" x 5 3/4", ironed on some interfacing to stiffen it up and folded it in half sewing 1/4" seam around. Leave an opening and turn it right side out, iron and close up the opening. The middle was a 2" strip in folded in half and sewed 1/"4 seam, turned, ironed and wrapped around middle of bow. The sash is the same width as small strip. Make it long enough to go around you, attach one end o back of bow. I put Velcro on both ends to close it.

I am IN LOVE with your sash!! Compliments your beautiful bumb so well!
First HDBD post 19wks 1day and so thankful that my BIL can sew and helped me modify/ make a pair of maternity jeans out of an old pair of jeans that weren't cutting it anymore! Thank goodness for tall jeans!
