I did it today--I wore maternity pants for the first time. Actually, these particular pants were very uncomfortable. I have several other pairs that are much better. My regular jeans just aren't working now. I was using a rubber band to extend the waist, but they were falling down--not very attractive! I've heard that the secret panal waist from Motherhood is wonderful because it supports the belly. I might have to invest in a few new clothes!
I worked at Van's for the first time in a month or so. Van told me today I can work as much as I want during the holidays, so it's quite likely that we try to get me 40 hrs per week. Since paying off our credit card debt, we no longer use credit cards for frivilous purchases (we have two to use occasionally), so any extra money at the holidays will be fantastic. Besides, we need a few new items for the baby. Our crib is one of the many that's been recalled, and though we can get the repair kit for it, we might splurge on a new crib. We are planning on getting Aidan and Noah bunk beds with our tax return money--complete with new mattresses and bed linens.
I still haven't been to the dr. My dr. doesn't see OB patients until the end of the first trimester anyway, and we're waiting on insurance. Otherwise, the initial visit cost is equal to what we pay for our entire family's health insurance premium per month! I am hoping for resolution this week so I can go next week--I am impatient and want to make sure gummy bear is thriving!
Morning sickness is still an issue, but it's turned more into midday sickness.
According the Chinese lunar calendar, this baby is a girl. I guess we'll find out eventually what gender this child is, but it's kind of fun to guess!
