Things aren't fitting...

Okay, so here I am at 16 weeks. The few things I have found out...I need to own more stretchy pants. They are a girl's best friend. Not diamonds...stretchy pants. I find myself searching my closet for dresses for ONCE in my life. Secondly, bras in size F are NOT at all, in any way, shape, or form attractive. My husband, bless his heart, went online to save the day a.k.a find me a 32F bra because I was still in denial. He finds one and has me pick out a color, he orders it. I get it, I put it on...I cry. Madonna boobs...for one...3 clasps that are 2 inches apart from each other...two...three, the straps are about an inch thick. I look like I'm wearing a tank top with the bottom half cut off. I don't look sexy, I don't feel sexy. I'm sad. My only prayer at this point is I stop growing in the boob area. Everywhere else is fine, in fact I now encourage it as long as it doesn't end up on top. Hooray for being at the 16th week though! I still have nights that I feel a bit ill, my doctor asked if it was indigestion and being as it I have never experienced it, I could not answer. I was told to try pepcid AC. THAT STUFF makes me sick. It's suppose to be flavored but I don't know if you can call that flavor. Formed chalk pretty much sums it up. No thank you. I'll deal with whatever it is that might be ailing me at this point. Not everyone at work knows I'm pregnant so it's interesting to see people staring particularly at my belly. Not to mention, I'm feeling the baby move. Weirdest thing in the world. Usually before I eat, I'll start feeling flutters. Kinda tickles from the inside. I've noticed my center of balance is GONE. I'm still trying to recover it. I'm tripping up all over the place. Not to mention the extra couple of inches of hip-age. I run into things especially things I used to be able to avoid...like closed doors and corners. Anyways, enough talk, here are some pics. I think I look bigger in these pictures than I really am...but that's just me.


And here is a picture of Maya attacking her kong. We had just put peanut butter in it and she was all over that thing!!
