I hate maternity clothes...got some cheap tshirts at Target...but I bought tons of shift dresses at Francesca's Collection. You can buy your regular size and fit into them for the first six months... Also buy regular Maxi dresses...especially those that have empire waists. My Fave maternity jeans are from Old Navy...in the beginning the full panel fits...but now that I am towards the end only the Demi panel jeans fit...full panel is too tight hahaha<br /><br />Good Luck!! :-)<br />P.S. totally agree with your cravings..I craved fast food & french fries nonstop in the beginning..so much for eating healthy for your baby..but the doctor says it is fine. elizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18292208340580934049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517042866744320786.post-22429695243685715712013-04-22T13:13:16.761-07:002013-04-22T13:13:16.761-07:00Awww this is so exciting :) I can't wait til y...Awww this is so exciting :) I can't wait til you find out the gender, either!

Get on the mailing list so you get coupons... After I had Mav I learned Old Navy has a pretty awesome maternity line. So shopping there for baby #2. Also, if you can find the time you have to read Baby Laughs.

Try to write everything down exactly as you see/feel it so you will always remember.<br /><br />I'm so excited for you! <br />PS. I agree about the jeans comment above. Don't waste your money on the cheep ones unless they really do look perfect on you... O and long tank tops under anything help everything last longer...meaning you can wear your shirts a little longer.<br /><br />I started shower earlier too. I don't know if it was the "baby bump" or more to do with bloating but I feel your pain. haha There is no shame in wearing maternity clothes early. Everyone is different.

I'm not preggo so no advice from me but I'll definitely be asking you for advice when it's my turn hahah...especially the working/ teaching part becasue I'm not preggo and I'm super tired too...maybe it's because it's almost the end of the school year. I think I've hear Old navy has great, cheap maternity stuff so maybe check there :)Kathrin@shopschoolsleephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793503791532030077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517042866744320786.post-91663473665099579772013-04-21T12:33:22.442-07:002013-04-21T12:33:22.442-07:00Our pregnancies seem super similar!

And I also needed maternity clothes at week 11 :) I've found Old Navy and Motherhood have pretty inexpensive clothes. I would try stuff on at Motherhood and then order it online because they seemed to have better sales there--like 20% off entire order kind of sales. At least you'll be preggo through the summer that you'll still be able to wear most of your dresses. I've been too big to fit into any of mine lol. Best advice--don't worry about the scale. Do your best to eat healthy (don't feel guilty when you eat that slice of pizza though!), but don't stress when that scale starts going up. And don't feel bad about breaking plans with friends if you're not feeling up to it. Growing a baby is hard work!Tiffany @ Austin Family Diaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13210453787492905189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3517042866744320786.post-46881806364138034262013-04-21T12:20:50.145-07:002013-04-21T12:20:50.145-07:00Congrats on the new addition!
