pregnancy clothes question ...

So chris is um outgrowing her bras....I imagine this will get worse. What the heck do you buy? Do they make stretchy onses? I am in the buy buy baby I just found (eek) a block from my office but no mom section. Target? This never occurred to.me and I don't want to buy anything nice that will only fit for 8w!

I don't know the answer here... just wanted to ask how Chris is doing (and you too!)

I did the macy's buy two get one free deal, so I bought two in my current size one a cup size up and that worked for most of the pregnancy.  Until the end when I finally gave in and went to go get fitted and I got a nursing bra. You may want to check out a soft cupped nursing bra, they tend to be a little more stretchy. I wanted the extra support so I stuck with a regular underwire through the pregnancy.

I hope that helps!

Good idea! Also does buy buy baby usualy carry Kate Spade and Skip Hop and leather bags and Bugaboo strollers? Nevr been in one before. Who buys a 450 diaper bag?

Honestly, my boobs grew two cup sizes (no joke!) in the first trimester. They haven't grown since. After going about 5 other places, I finally went to Victoria's Secret after first tri and bought two bras. I am so glad I did! Their bras are amazing. The quality and the support is unlike what you'll find anywhere else. I am glad I spent a little more money because IMO there's nothing worse than a cheap/uncomfortable bra.

I have gotten some sports bras for sleeping in and then been using some cheapo's from target a cup size up from my normal. I am just about ready to break into nursing bras though, which would be my suggestion if she is gonna breastfeed since she will need those anyway. 

By the way soooooo excited for you guys!

I went up a cup size and just went ahead and caved and finally bought nursing bras when I was 5 mo along and I still use them.  Target has nursing and maternity bras and even sleep bras if she is incomfortable when she is sleeping.  I got my first bras from Motherhood and prefer their underwire and sleep bras.  On weekends, I wear the wireless bras from Target as the Motherhood wireless bras bothered me in the armpit area.

I am pretty small to start with, so I didn't even grow a full cup size (dammit). I am still wearing my regular bras because I really didn't grow at all after first trimester. I think I am starting to grow a bit again, and will just move into nursing bras when these no longer fit (or the baby is here, whichever comes first).

I went up about a cup and a band size the first few months, and then held steady until towards the end.  Then, with nursing, I went up another couple cup sizes.  Now, even though I haven't been breastfeeding for almost a year, I'm still two cup sizes above and one band size below my pre-pregnancy size.  So it's hard to predict.

I went to motherhood maternity to get fitted, but I can't stand that store. What I got is just like any t-shirt bra I've seen other places.  I like the idea of going for one of those buy two get one free deals and getting a couple in different sizes for now, and then around 7-8 months get fitted for nursing bras.

I have a Skip Hop diaper bag but mine was around $100....

I only went up a cup size (and have kept it, woohoo!!) I bought soft cup underwire nursing bras. I actually continued to wear them after I stopped pumping because I liked them so much. I bought mine at Target actually.

Ok I will make her get one good bra for now- TMI but she nevr uses to have non sports bras since she never broke an A until the fertility drugs. Even now she normall wears sports bras and has like one crappy normal one for work sweaters- and reevaluate later. I sure hope if I am ever pregnant I get to have and keep boobs I am only a full A vmbecause I am chubby right now

Amanda the skip hop bags were 100ish just never seen them in a store. They reminded me of my timbuk2 messenger which I.might repurpose. There was another brand besides kate spade for like 400 though and weren't even big! One leather bag +270) had a dust bag....you are going to carefully store something you're putting bottles and diapers in? And this is on the border of the fashion district and chelsea....really curious.m what the stock is on the upper west side...

I don't know specifically, but I know the moms up here rave that Buy Buy Baby has the largest in-store selection of stollers and pretty much everything else.  Let me say, that is such an awesome store.  the one near us opened last year and my friend registered there.  It's incredible.

While I look bigger and did grow I never actually changed sizes. haha. So sorry to say I can't really help you but I'm just wondering how things are going? How is C feeling?

cookiemonster03

She is tired and sometimes has nausea but the b12 is helping. Otherwise good. Only a couple more RE appts till graduation I am missing Monday's due to new job...I.have never missed an u/s before all year (our re always comments on that! She has had well over 40). I hope t is good. I am always nervous!

This makes me want to cry out of fear should I ever get pregnant ...
