Time seems to be flying by....hard to believe sometimes that I am already this far. I will be 29 weeks as of Saturday. I want to really enjoy this pregnancy as not sure when/if we will have another so could be my last. Depending on when this little lady comes (son arrived at 37 weeks) that means I could meet her in as little as 8 weeks. Yikes! I feel like I have nothing prepared including a name. I do have lots of left over items from my son but still feel like I need some new things for her. I will be having a shower thrown by my Mom and good friend on May 4th so looking forward to that as I did not do one with our son.It will be a Lovebird theme and I plan to do the same for the nursery whenever I set that up-holding off pending a move to a new home.  My Mother in Law arrives from Morocco on April 12th and will be here through August to help me out as well. I plan to take 3 months/12 weeks off to adjust so it will be nice. SO much is going on: our house is on market, looking for a larger home to buy, our son starts Kindergarten in the fall, work is hectic, still traveling (for now) as needed, so I think that helps with the time going by but also adds stress too. The good thing is I still am not that big. Weight gain is on track but I think thanks to being tall and the TT I had in May I am growing width wise only. Including a pick from a gala we attended for my husband's job. I was about 26 weeks in this pic and for the most part just looked chubby, not preggo! LOL

I hope everyone is doing well with their pregnancies, new babies, adn TTC journeys so far. Hugs! XOXOXO

It is amazing the difference height can make!  When I had my second I was unable to hide my belly by 12 weeks unless I wore REALLY baggy thick clothes.  I'm only 5 feet, so the baby has no where to go but OUT!  You look great!  Love the dress!

Yes, it does. My mom is only 5ft 1 and she looked preggo from just about conception on, LOL I WANT to look more preggo but no suck luck, lol Everyone assumes I must feel great and not have all the other complaints and symptoms and tells me just wait...I am like for what, I still have all the typical pregnancy complaints, minus the HUGE belly  I suppose.

I had a TT and it does keep your belly from popping....well I was held in for awhile, didn't start wearing maternity cloths until the last few weeks, unless I wanted to look more preggo than just wide....I didn't pop a little over the last few weeks, but most people still can't believe I am on Friday 33 weeks....the good thing with my first one is that my stomach got flat again fast...hoping that stays true with this one!  Good Luck!

That is good to know. I am hoping that I have the same luck. I only had my TT for a few months before getting preggo so never really got to see full results so anxious to get back to pre pregnancy weight and working out, etc

I'm 34 weeks and still haven't settled on a name!  And ds #2 was born at 34 weeks!  I don't quite have the nursery finished--it's painted but no curtains or wall decor yet--but it is functionally set up--but just finished that this past weekend--we had to move our boys out to new bedroom which renovated president's week and then paint nursery.

I'm not tall and I didn't have a tummy tuck and I have only lookedn noticebly pregnant for the past month.

Names are so hard! I thought for sure it would be easy, but nope. My son was w/o one for two days after he was born, and we ended up picking one that was not even on the list. Go figure. Since we are moving  I dont really want to do a nursery up only to have to move so may just make do with the essentials and then go all out once we move!

Ladies I am with you....7 weeks or less, no name, I don't even have one diaper in this house!  Thank goodness walmarts just a few mins away!  LOL.  We have painted baby's room, no crib set up or anything; we have it all but nothing set up, waiting for the husband to pull out of the storage space....I did buy some cloths with my mom a few weeks ago, and on April 20th we are having a diaper party, so I should have basics by then...so let's hope she doesn't come more than a couple weeks early!  The first one seemed more prepared, but as the commercial reveal, you become much more relax on the next ones ....right.  :)
