I'm probably the most impatient person that ever lived. I don't want to wish away my whole pregnancy, but I am ready for something to start happening. I don't even feel pregnant really. Except for how tired and sleepy I feel all the time and my boobies are starting to feel tender. No sickness. Nothing. I'm not going to complain about the lack of nausea, though. I could do without it. I don't do good with vomitting. I hate to puke. I haven't puked in probably 7 years. If I feel it coming on I just start taking deep breaths out of my nose and the feeling goes away. Maybe I just haven't been really sick enough to vomit, but nevertheless, I will be happy to skip right over it.
In other news, the underwire in my really good, expensive, specialty bra broke. I am very big chested and it's hard (and expensive) to find bras that fit my size. I end up having to go to the specialty bra store to be sized and fitted with the right bra. I am a double H cup. (Huge, I know! My poor back.) But, I am thinking of going shopping this weekend or sometime very soon, to look for a good maternity/nursing bra that I can start wearing now that I can just grow into. Bras are expensive and I can't be buying a new one every other week because I'm growing out of them so fast. I've heard that if you start out really big that sometimes you won't get as much growth as you would if you started out with smaller boobies. I hope that's true. I can't handle any more size on my chest. Dad-gum!
DH and I bought our plane tickets last night to go see my family in Nevada for the holidays. We leave Atlanta, Georgia on December 28th and will return home on January 6. I can't wait! We will be announcing to my parents and younger brothers that we are pregnant! :D It's so hard keeping it in, in the meantime. I talk to my mom a lot on the phone, but I have to keep reminding myself of how bad I want to see the looks on their faces in person! We have our first baby doctor/ultrasound appointment on December 13th, then our pregnancy announcement picture session December 15th. We will be having our favorite picture enlarged and framed for each of our parents to announce. How sweet will it be to watch them open the gift and realize what it is and means! :)
Anyways, like I said, nothing new. Just extremely tired and my boobies are starting to get a little tender. Need to shop for a new bra and try to be patient while waiting to see the doctor for the first time and see our little one and hear the heartbeat for the first time. :)
23 days to go. :)

 | Comment from mrsamanda » Posted Nov. 25, 2013 5:37pm I know what you mean. Every day is closer to less chance of miscarriage though. But, we have sticky babies! :) I can't wait for our pictures. I'm already trying to figure out what we are going to wear!! |
 | Comment from megan_wynne » Posted Nov. 25, 2013 5:14pm I feel the same way; I don't even feel pregnant! I can't wait to tell people, but I am paranoid that I will tell people and then lose the baby so as much as I want to tell people, I don't want to either. Have fun with your announcement photos!! |
| Comment from mrsamanda » Posted Nov. 20, 2013 8:49pm Emma- My friend and neighbor that just had a baby a couple months ago told me that once you tell everyone and everyone knows, it will feel more real and you will start FEELING pregnant. I guess because everyone is talking about it all the time. :) eag- I'm glad you are so interested in me! Haha! I actually live in Alabama, but it is so much cheaper to fly out of ATL. :) My nausea went away, so hopefully it was just me psyching myself out! Lol! jenna- I am going to probably go looking this weekend. (hopefully!) I will definitely let you all know if I find anything good. I'm not one to get a bra that is uncomfortable. I already hate my big ole boobies, I want a reduction. I'm debating on having one later on, once the baby is born. Not sure yet. I want to lose a good bit of weight before I consider the surgery. |
 | Comment from jennavee » Posted Nov. 20, 2013 4:30pm I have the same bra problem you do. I got even bigger while pregnant and afterwards. It was AWFUL. I never could find a nursing bra that fit and worked well. I went from a DDD to an H. I hope you have more success finding bras! Please post about it if you do, as I've GOT to find something better this time around. |
 | Comment from eag923 » Posted Nov. 20, 2013 4:12pm Awwww, I'm so excited to read your journals! You'll be flying out of my neck of the woods - I'm a GA girl and lived in a Atlanta for nearly a decade! And if you keep mentioning pregnancy symptoms you're going to jinx yourself and start puking! lol! With my first, I started throwing up at 4 weeks and 3 days. With this one, I never threw up but the nausea was debilitating. That started around 7-8 weeks this time around. Now I'm in my 22nd week and the heartburn is killing me - thank God for Zantac. Don't worry - you'll have that adorable bump before you know it! Can't wait to see you ultrasound pics!!! |
 | Comment from emmapeal9 » Posted Nov. 20, 2013 3:23pm I'm with you on every avenue here. I want to tell people! I want to FEEL pregnant. I'm impatient. I could skip nausea. We are doing photos this weekend, though. My best friend will be doing them and we'll have about a 2 hour drive to see her...so we had to plan ahead. Looking forward to that. Can't wait for the ultrasound! |
