We are well on our way now. I'm now 14 weeks and 2 days pregnant. I am still not showing, but expanding just the same. Most of my pants do not fit me. Yet the 2 pairs of maternity pants I've bought (from thrift stores ;)) are still falling off me.
My husband and mom keep laughing at me because I keep saying "I want a baby bump". Part of it is for the sheer joy of looking pregnant. The other reason is so I don't look like I'm gaining weight for no reason. Yes there is some vanity in this humble mother-to-be.
I am still suffering some evening nausea. It doesn't happen everyday, but its still annoying when it does.
My energy levels have picked up. Now that I have the energy I'm running around tidying and sorting and cleaning. Trying not to over work myself, but I think the nesting instinct is kicking in. (It does seem early for that though, doesn't it?)
I'm not 100% sure, but I think I have felt the baby move. The sort of feeling "they" call "quickening". Little fluttery feelings in my belly. Of course, I'm trying not to get too excited. I could just be imagining it.
Well, I've got some running around to do today. My license and plate stickers need to be renewed. Before I do that though I have to have an emissions test done (stupid Gosh Damned rule!!!!). At least its booked and I have the day off to take care of it all. I do think its cool that for the next five years if I do show anyone my license I can say "I was pregnant in that picture!" So whether I'm glowing or looking bloated I have an excuse!!! :P
Hmmmm...maybe after all that Hubby will take me shopping for some pants that fit??!!!

I'm a little disappointed. I had gotten my license picture taken when I changed my name so no pregnant picture for me:(
I did get some pants. They look a bit dorky, but they fit and I can work in them.
