Ugh, my friends are being twat waffles. I don't think any of them are coming to the baby shower because it's too far/inconvenient. Its taking place in a suburb just outside the city, which has a commuter train that 1000's of people literally use every day to get to/from the city. It's like a 30 minute train ride, and I even offered to have someone pick them up from the train station. But instead they want to have a "mini shower" in the city, meaning we will be the ones driving in to see all of them, and making sure we have a free day to schedule it on. There will still be a ton of people at the shower, and of course my husband's friends are also my friends so it will still be a blast, but like, come on guys, it's not that much effort!
The lady next to me at breakfast rhis morning is a twat waffle. After finding out I'm 7+ months pregnant, she says "You don't even look pregnant!" I know I'm a plus size lady and all but seriously! There is an obvious belly there!!!
I've never hate wearing a bra until being pregnant. I have always hated shopping for bras but I hate it even more now that my boobs won't stop growing. I'm in an H cup now and now busting out of it. The fact that my belly starts right underneath my boobs leaves no room for any type of bra to sit. Not wearing a bra at a size H is just not an option either.
@graceriesz booborama here too! My latest bra is a g cup and the tag says it's an I cup in US sizing. The one thing I am liking about pregnancy tho is that my belly is taking attention away from my boobs!! It's easier to wear form fitting clothes and tops because I don't feel as self conscious right now. Big boob problems
@Knottie42089123 what kind and where did you get it?? trying to find something that will fit my outrageous boobs right now is driving me crazy (currently where an H but my cups overfloweth ).....i cant even find a nursing tank that works
@shmarpler i have already pinned multiple options for converting a regular bra into a nursing bra b/c i know its not likely that i will find the right size let alone in nursing so im sure converting a tank is probably the way to go too
Large cup ladies, look at Royce nursing bras. As an FYI they use U.K. cup sizes (a U.K. GG is a US J), but they go up to a U.K. L/M cup in some of their lines.
Me. I am my own bitchfest today. I'm having one of those days where I just hate myself. My friend is in labor and all I can focus on is my jealousy and wish that WE could have gotten pregnant. Then, EM is out of contact again, I'm back to feeling like it's all going to fall apart, and I'm just emotionally over it. I'm annoyed with myself.

*hugs* I think anyone in your position would feel the same so don't be too hard on yourself. You may have a different set of difficulties than morning sickness and BH, but they are definitely still stressful and not any easier, especially when you feel like you have so little control over things. EM has been out of contact before for periods of time and has always shown up again, just give it some time and hang in there!
@krex-2 I agree with @CapricaAndrea, I think how you are feeling is totally normal and ok. Don't be too hard on yourself. Adoption is really hard, and it's ok not to feel happy all the time through all that stress and uncertainty.
Re: MBF and TWT combo?

I also had trouble finding nursing tanks that fit, so I used this to convert some of my old tanks.

The bra I was living in most of the pregnancy was by Panache. Great brand for the big boobed population.
