Hellobee Boards

@HeartAbandoned: That's so funny you mention that- I was just looking at buying some Coobie bras! Are they supportive enough? The only thing holding me back from buying them this morning was the concern that they wouldn't be supportive enough and there would be sagging issues.

@Mrs. Rabbit: ugh! I just bought some stuff there yesterday and didnt check cartwheel!

I finally broke down yesterday and bought some warm weather maternity clothes. I had been surviving with non maternity yoga capris and one pair of maternity jeans and couldnt take it any longer! Targets maternity t-shirts are on sale might go get a few more since they are 20% off too! I had been holding off because i am only a mo th off from when i was pregnant last time and i will be pregnant theough the winter. But i just couldnt handle looking like a frump any more!

@Mrs. Lion: @Kbee: I'm tempted to go back and get another sweater. I'm wearing it right now (it may be hot and gross outside, but we keep it cool in the house), and it's so comfy I want more! I wish their new dresses had a little more style to them...they seemed to blah at the store.

@MsMiranda: They aren't as supportive as an underwire, but they are so much more comfortable that I don't care I don't feel "saggy" in them, really, but also not as "perky" as an underwire. I was a 36 C/D pre-pregnancy (I haven't measured lately to see what I am now. I'm a little scared to know... )

@mrs. tictactoe: Oh, that shirt is adorable, but darn-it, they don't have it in my size Maybe they'll get it back soon.

I bought some cropped leggins from target, but they fit weird in the crotch and now I'm sad. the full-length ones I had last time from there were fantastic. Maybe I just need to grow into these.

Does anyone have a Bravado bra? I was thinking of getting fitted for one, since I've heard good things.

@AnneBird: I placed a big ON order over the weekend with 20% and I JUST noticed that today everything on site is 30% off with the code SAVEMORE. Maybe I need more??

How is everyone doing? It's starting to cool down here and I can't wait to wear all these cute clothes we're all stocking up on. Other than that I feel like I'm in a boring phase. No "fun" symptoms to complain about at the moment and no real news... just waiting to meet my new doc next week!

For those of you feeling the baby, where about are you feeling it? I'm feeling this one SUPER low, like below/near my belly button. Last time around this week she was high—her first kick was almost up by my ribs. I'm guessing it's just where everything's situated this time?

@mrs. tictactoe: Cute shirt!

@loopedd: I know I can't wait for it to cool down. I just bought 3 sweaters from H&M but I haven't been able to wear them yet! Oh, btw, I bought my ticket for the baby shower thing! I'm so excited!

@maddyz: I've bought clothes from ASOS before, but not the maternity ones. It's not standard American sizing, so just make sure you check out the size chart. They have a good return policy though, so it's not too big a deal to return something if it doesn't fit. They have cute stuff!

@Mrs. Rabbit: I feel the baby kick down low too, below my belly button.

@Circusbee: Buying a higher quality pair of jeans is SO worth it. I had the same problem with a cheap pair from H&M, and it was so frustrating! I spent way too much on the new pair, but they are amazing. They are the best jeans I've ever owned in my entire life, haha.

hi all!
just wanted to let you know although I dont post, I do keep up with the board!

question for people either feeling the kicks / 2nd time pregnancies: this early on (17 weeks wednesday) is it normal to feel kicks consistently and then maybe not feel them... I don't think I felt them yesterday or today.. is this normal? trying not to worry..

@loopedd: It's cooling down here too and I'm so exciting about it!

@maddyz: I've been checking out ASOS too. We have a wedding next month so I was looking at dresses. Was wondering the same thing about the sizing

@Mrs. Rabbit: I feel it low. Usually on the left side below my bellybutton

@Circusbee: If we had a Motherhood, I'd be buying way too much too. Unluckily for me, we don't have a single maternity store here so it makes buying things tough. I don't like buying on line as I like to try on first

@ndepet: I feel my kicks on and off. I think it's probably because they're still so light that we just don't notice it all the time. I don't think I'd be worried at this stage considering so many people don't even feel kicks for weeks yet

@maddyz: I got a dress from ASOS maternity when I was pregnant with Liam. I liked it, but it was a little big.

@Mrs. Rabbit: definitely low! I have a long torso, though, so I never felt kicks with Liam up in my ribs like other describe.

@Mrs. Rabbit: I was a bottomless pit today. I kept eating and wanted more. I try to get protein where I can - hard boiled eggs are a quick and easy favorite. I bought a ton of frozen stuff from trader joes today - Chinese, Indian, pizza, meatballs... I'm not really enjoying salad, but I do like cooked vegetables. The easiest way for me is to get a bag of frozen veggies and throw them in with whatever I'm making.

@mrs. tictactoe: That's exactly how I felt yesterday I was a bottomless pit! Funny some days I am not that hungry and other days I am starving! Lately though been more hungry def think you are right Mrs. Rabbit the babies are growing and so is my belly

So excited at 1pm today I find out the gender! I will let you ladies know!

@mtex14: hooray!! Can't wait to hear!

I still have little appetite, but I am hungry A LOT. Does that even make sense? It's like I don't want to eat but I HAVE TO. Also, I'm not sure I said this here yet, but the midwife I saw last Friday said that I am not eating enough protein, so I keep trying to force myself to eat peanut butter and chicken and cheese all day long... honestly it's pretty exhausting. Although twice this week I really wanted grilled cheese and tomato soup and it sounds really good again... so I think I'm going to get it again. It's protein in the cheese and vegetables in the soup right?? Soooo healthy!

@mtex14: Yay! Can't wait to find out what you're having!!

@Circusbee: i have this problem too. I am starving all the time but nothing sounds good at all. So frustrating!

@Mrs. Rabbit: trader joes has a greek yogurt that is so insanely delicious. Its a full fat strawberry vanilla. I bought like 6 of them this week to eat for breakfast. Its got a lot of sugar and 320 calories, but also a lot of protein and fat, so i figure they are fine right now since they actually taste good to me (i am having a terrible time finding breakfast foods!) and i eat them with a banana as my whole meal.

@mtex14: eek so exciting!!!

@mtex14: stalking and excited to find out what it are having!

@Kbee: That happens to me at dinner, too! I can't eat much, then I'm hungry as I'm lying in bed.

@mrs. tictactoe: I've been feeling like this too! It's like post-Thanksgiving Day full, but I haven't eaten more than normal.

And agree to all of you talking about small stomachs but hungry all the time!! This is why I've been waking up at around midnight every night absolutely STARVING.
