so the last couple fridays i’ve come to work in my jeans with them already unbuttoned and eventually held together with a rubberband (see: rubberband trick entry…again), but this morning i decided i’d try the Be Band out that Jenni bought me.
I’m never buttoning up my pants again.
it’s like a super soft stretchy tube top that fits right on top of my unbuttoned fly and goes up to my (what feels to be) beer gut. its brilliant! and it just looks like i have on layered t-shirts. HA!
i have no idea if it alters the appearance of my belly any, but it sure is comfy. and it’s not so much a baby bump yet, its just seriously like a beer gut. IF i wanted to concentrate all day and suck it in then you couldn’t tell a difference between me now and me 9 weeks ago, but i just don’t have the will power. i planned to wait till the end of the month to tell my boss, but i doubt i’ll make it that long. i’m getting antsy.
lol, where is this pic? I was just thinking last night that you're probably almost in the 2nd tri-mester now, wow! Sorry to hear about our supposed "beer gut" but glad you & baby are still doing well! I give you another couple of months before you actually look pregnant.
i couldn't take a good pic in the bathroom at work. lol. you'll just have to see it in person…or wait till i get home.
yeah the second tri starts at like 13.3 weeks, which will be right about the end of august i think. i was gonna wait till 12 weeks to tell work and friends i haven't told yet (don't know how without making a FB announcement…). i have another doctors appt on the 25th, so i might tell my boss right before then.
but we're doing fine. i even took off work yesterday cause i was super tired and then super sick. so even though it sucks i guess those are good signs.
Awww! Bre' you're such a Mama already 🙂 So sorry you're feeling so tired and sick! If it's any consolation I heard it lessens for most women as you go along and puddin' grows bigger!
