15w2d: post vacation motivation

Hi,

Wow, it's been quite a long time since I last posted. Since then I have been on a short holiday with my mother and aunt - road trip from the SF Bay Area down to Palm Springs. We stayed at this lovely spa. The weather turned quite cold and stormy one day, but we snuggled up, read, laughed and just enjoyed the company. The trip in the car was a bit long; had to stop every hour for me to get out and walk around and keep the blood flowing. Had some serious round ligament pain when I got back. Luckily I took an extra day off and rested on Monday.

Only pregnancy news: I'm busting out of my pants. Literally. I lost a button yesterday and broke down and bough maternity pants. Very exciting. Makes it very real.

Welcome back! Your trip sounds like it was a good time, even with the long road trip.

While I'm not quite ready for my mat clothes yet, I'm thinking I'm going to have to use my bella bands soon.

Maternity pants are THE. BEST. I'm impressed you've gone so long without them!

Glad to hear you had such a great trip. :)

Welcome home! Sounds like a great time! Hope the pains ease up for you.

Woohoo to maternity clothes! Yes, I may be a weirdo, but I found it thrilling to buy maternity clothes - even if it was frustrating at times. Okay, a lot of the time. But still. Now? Now I walk past the maternity department with a little bit of longing.
