I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and wearing maternity jeans today. I realize baby is the size of a brussel sprout and that this bump is entirely due to carbs and the fact that I haven't pooped since Tuesday. No shame in my game. Sorry if TMI.

@MRSCORKER I made the switch yesterday at 8 weeks 5 days - no judgement here. My blump is happily hanging out of my pants. Goodbye judgmental buttons! Be gone with you!

@MRSCORKER .. no judgement here! I broke down a couple of weeks ago. I'll be 11wks on Monday.
my FFFC- I've accidentally pressed the report button on 2 different comments on our board while scrolling through on my mobile app. I backed out immediately, so I'm not sure if they went through. Whoops!
Even though mine took the brunt of it yesterday, I really enjoyed actually having some kind of discussions/disagreements that were about something other than mayo.
I've been wearing maternity pants since my first pregnancy last year. Now that I've gotten so used to them, the only "comfortable" pants now are not wearing pants
I have 5 more hours at work and have already finished all my work. The majority of the people are off today so I'm going to sit here, eat sour patch kids and watch tv the rest of the time.
My doppler comes in today. As soon as I get it, I'm going to lock myself in my office, lie on the floor, and find that heart beat. Yesterday, I was all "I can wait 'til I get home. I'm not THAT impatient." Nope. Not gonna happen.

I'm wearing a bellaband for the first time today at 9 weeks. It's not to keep my unbuttoned pants up -- in fact I'm wearing yoga pants and they don't even have buttons. It's an attempt to smooth out the lumpy bloat I've got going on.

my maternity jeans came yesterday. 10w1d today. I switched offices 2 weeks after my bfp and saw they wear jeans and I don't even own any so I figured if I'm buying jeans I'll buy these!
I called in sick this AM. Yes, I'm feeling pukey but not nearly as bad as when I was having to legitimately call in sick a couple weeks ago. But I'm exhausted and today is going to be so slow and I need some me time, especially since DS is at his grandparents this morning. Currently lying in bed and bumping... possibly about to take a nap.
I've been off work since the beginning of February and have made zero effort to do anything productive in that time. I've been knitting and I binged watched all 9 seasons of How I Met Your Mother.
@JamieK1882 haha! That was refreshing. It was also nice to see so many anti-seaworld people. My circle of friends continues to go and proudly supports them.

Girl, I almost punched my MIL in the face yday when she suggested, "oh sweetie, you won't need maternity pants. you're probably not going to get big at all, some women don't show at all up until their last trimester. don't buy too much maternity stuff." This conversation took place because she saw my ASOS maternity package delivered and laughed at me for being "too excited."
I've been wearing maternity pants since I was 7 weeks. I had a pair from my last pregnancy and have gained some weight. They were the only things that fit. I bought more because I hope that I'm not this big post-baby (I swore I'd never be this big again!) so I didn't see the point of buying bigger clothes and then maternity clothes a month or so later. So I've been in maternity clothes for weeks already and I'm not quite 12 weeks. Lol
I'm 12 weeks and wearing my new maternity jeans for jeans Friday... And they're amazing!!! I have needed these for weeks now. It's awesome to not have a tight waistband digging into my blump lol. I also got three pairs of maternity yoga pants that I'm super excited to wear soon!
DH is off work for good Friday. I tipped toed out of bed and shut the door so I could watch greys anatomy and eat a shameful amount of banana bread before he woke up.
@PeggyOlsonFTW I'm totally with you on that but it speaks volumes about him as an actor that we can love him on one show and loathe him on the other! Lol
I have company coming today driving from MA and they have about a 9 hour drive and I'm supposed to be cleaning and baking, instead I've napped and binge watched my Thursday shows and was just slightly excited when they texted that traffic was bad!
@F47 - We haven't had sex since the BFP either. I'm just over 10 weeks and although he's been very kind about it, I know DH is going crazy. I think I might finally be in a good place mentally to try, so I'm thinking of doing something special for him this weekend... a special outfit or something.
@CopperBoom86That makes me feel a little less like a freak. I don't know if this weekend will be it for me. By the time I get DS in bed, I just want to shower and crash. But, I know I need to get back at it. Plus, let's be honest, he should get to benefit from my newly big boobs. (Just be gentle, DH!)
@F47 and @CopperBoom86 I've been scared to have sex also. I gave in and did it once at 7 weeks and had pink spotting later that day so we haven't done it since. I brought it up to my OB at my appt this past Tuesday. She was super kind about it but basically said to stop being a worry wart and to get it in. I think we might try again this weekend too.

I've done the deed with FI since BFP but it has definitely been way less often. I'll think about it throughout the day, but once all the rigormorall of the day is done, I just don't feel like it. I know there is a big difference between intending to do something and doing it, but sex seems like such a chore. Part of me wants to sucks it up and just do it, but at the same time he can tell when I'm not that into and it seems that makes it worse than not doing it at all. Oh the bedroom struggle.

same here... we have to get started early, or I'm just too wiped out. Funny story, to me anyway...and probably TMI, BUT... we went in to see my RE on our anniversary for our 2nd US and my RE apologized for not being able to give the okay to DTD on our anniversary b/c of the progesterone gel I have to put up there (gross). We just looked at each other and said it was no problem... only b/c we both knew it hasn't stopped us yet, just needed to use protection. We felt like sneaky teenagers lol
I've been on pelvic rest since 6 weeks due to a subchorianic bleed and to be honest it's been nice to have sex totally off the table especially since I've been so sick/nauseous. But last night I was having sex dreams and we go to the doctor on Monday.. I think it's time to ask if we can start doing it again!
@F47 DH and I also haven't DTD since our BFP, 9 weeks today. I have insane dreams about him, but when I wake up, I am immediately queasy and exhausted so just not at all in the mood. We've both been pretty grumpy.
@cd92007 I have a subchorionic bleed too but no one told me not to have sex. Oops. Lol.
Oh well. Hubby and I haven't done it much. When we do, he's very gentle cause he's still kind of afraid. And it honestly doesn't last too long cause it's so infrequent and I try to get him pretty close beforehand since we're both still skittish.
@PeggyOlsonFTW ok I've only seen the first season, and I hated Asher in the beginning too but now I think he's just hilarious! Lol he's such a goof and all talk and then he's actually nice and caring (to a certain someone, I don't want to spoil anything). I find him entertaining. Although they're all pretty despicable!

1. DH and I haven't had sex since I got my BFP (I've had the flu and bad morning/all day sickness, but not 9 weeks worth).
2. I just dipped a chocolate bar into my mug of hot chocolate.
