We had one of these at the beginning of the first trimester, and I thought it might be fun to do it again now that our symptoms and bodies have started changing.
So. You know you're pregnant when...
-you're starving but nothing sounds good. -youe regular clothes are too small, but maternity clothes still look a little odd on you. -your stop telling people irl your name options, because everyone has an opinion, and most of them are weird.
-When you look 6 months pregnant after you eat, but then an hour later you're back to normal. -When you only fit into one skirt/pants. -When you're wondering if 2nd trimester glow is just a myth.
(Is this tmi?) But you know you're pregnant when you do the deed and once you're done, you can feel your stomach/uterus tighten and it stays like that for a few minutes before it relaxes. Ha!
When you're wondering when baby brain will kick in, and you walk past your car because you parked in a closer spot than normal, then realize baby brain is already a thing lol
When you literally would kill for some buffalo chicken dip!! Lol Poor DH, he said I had crazy eyes. But, it was the most amazing thing I had ever tasted when he finished making it!!!
When you are impatiently waiting for that whole things get better in the second tri thing to kick in and instead feel worse. Also when every little thing irritates you to no end so you are either angry or ready to sob at any given time.

When all you want to eat is a ham sandwich on plain white bread with miracle whip, even though you don't even own any miracle whip and haven't eaten any since before you were 10.
I have another one.... When you fill out new patient paperwork at the doctor and write your maiden name instead of your actual last name because preggo brain is REAL. (I haven't used that last name in 6 years!)

You know your pregnant with #2+ when you started wearing your maternity clothes almost immediately. The bloat is real ya'll and it's not worth fighting with tight pants with hair ties holding the buttons when you have a ready supply of yoga and maternity pants. To any ladies who are still fighting the good fight, I highly recommend you surrender now. Get out there and buy yourself some maternity pants. It's totally worth it.

"I'm having fruit salad for dinner. Well, it's mostly just grapes, actually. Ok all grapes. Fermented grapes. Fine, I'm having wine for dinner."
When you sneak into your child's candy stash when he isn't home and feel no shame. We keep it in the pantry so he can't just grab it whenever. We also promised we wouldn't get into it. Whoops!
You know you're pregnant when you realize that you can no longer lean forward without first spreading your legs so you don't squish your uterus. It's attractive, let me tell you.
ETA: because for some reason my computer auto-corrected squish to much.
When you get to work ready to get everything done...then you sit at your desk and you're like Eff this...oh wait that's me everyday pregnant or not. lol
SHHHHH. This is why I know about the desktop version of The Bump and how I learned to GIF etc. I bump at work. I get sad when it gets dead around lunch time.

Haha! I drained my phone battery the first few days I was on TB. That's when I discovered the desktop version. Unfortunately my work blocks gifs, so if I really really want a gif, I have to search for it on my phone, copy the link, email it to myself, and then post it. Ugh.

When your eyes are way bigger than your stomach
Also when every little thing irritates you to no end so you are either angry or ready to sob at any given time.
I second @kristanoah - my eyes are way bigger than my stomach
When ice cream for dinner is a thing.
When buying a 3lb bag of gummy bears is totally acceptable.

When you can't tell if it's hormones or if you are really that bitchy today.
And... you yell at DH for making fun of you for how many ice pop wrappers are sitting on the side table next to you.
