I'm so jealous of all you tiny women! I swear I'm going to lose 100lbs before #3 gets here so that I can have a pretty belly like that!
DS was born (pre-eclampsia induction) at 35 weeks 5 days and the nurses were freaking out b/c they kept saying I couldn't be more than 24-25 weeks. Yeah, sorry, I was fat before the baby got here, so he just took up all the room that was already there.
I had a lady at my work as if I was still pregnant less than a month before DS was born. (Granted, I have a history of m/c, so she wasn't saying it in an idiotic way like "Oh, did you have the baby yet?" but still...a month before he was born!) Oh, and he wasn't a tiny baby. 5lbs 8oz for being 4 weeks early.
That being said, I FEEL bigger, but every time I try to get DH to take a picture, I just look like a fat blob. lol I guess I'll start posting around 20 weeks or something. (Oh my gosh, that's only 2 more weeks!)

: rubber band trick? oh, that's been long gone since 3 months! I wore skirts most of the summer, but I had maternity capris pretty early on. I discovered the bella band a few weeks ago and that has worked for a few of my pre-pregnancy things if I leave them unbuttoned and unzipped all the way
Around 4 1/2 months I found a pair of jeans on sale at old navy, a pair at GAP that were not on sale but fit so perfectly lengthwise that I had to buy them, and I have a few jersey skirts that can still stretch with me. I should get a couple more pair of pants, I guess, because I am KILLING these jeans--and I can wear jeans to work, so it helps. I have to say, maternity shopping, particularly for pants, has been frustrating because I just don't see my size a lot--my pants from Old Navy are x-small and the GAP were a size 2! the funny thing is, I highly doubt that'll be the case once I get out of maternity wear.
I just ordered more XS pants from Old Navy, so we'll see... return shipping is free.
