I have reached the point in my pregnancy where even my loosest pre-maternity tops are holding onto dear life against my burgeoning baby bump.
Yesterday, in an early morning rush out the door, I threw on a (once loose) long sleeved shirt with a pair of leggings. Sure, the shirt felt a bit more snug than usual, but I shrugged it off because it had fit me fine the week before.
Well. As it turns out, this week is very different than the week before.
When I finally got around to looking in a mirror, I realized that there was about one inch of tummy peaking out from between my shirt and my leggings. An inch that no amount of pulling or tugging on my clothes could cover up.
I had inadvertently gone out of the house this morning looking like Backwoods Barbie: pregnant and in a belly shirt (with Uggs).
Oy. Not my best fashion moment lol
Needless to say, if you catch me in the maternity section of a Target this weekend, you know why I’m there.

Highlights:
• feeling the baby move will always be a highlight
• almost getting my reflux under control (hopefully by the end of the week?)
• we are almost 100% on a baby name
Lowlights:
• a not-so-fun our of breath feeling after big meals
•weird upper abdominal pain when bloated, which I think could be from my hiatal hernia? Not fun
