Attack of the giant ta-ta's!

Hello All!  Yes, I'm still here!  Just been crazy busy and still battling the preggo exhaustion.  Seems like FOREVER since I blogged....guess that's because it has been FOREVER!

We had our nuchal scan a few weeks ago and everything looked great!  Little pumpkin is still growing on target, nice strong heart beat, and the nuchal measurement was 1.4 (well within the range of normal).  So there's a good chance our little seahorse is A-OK chromosomally.  We'll know more at the next ultrasound, at 17.5 weeks, but the last ultrasound was very promising!  At the next ultrasound we should be able to find out if we've got a Mr. or Miss hanging out in there, provided he/she decides to play nice!

I've been feeling OK -- not great -- just OK.  I have a lot of stretching-type twinges in my pelvic region, especially when I sneeze or get up too quickly, but from what I've read it's allegedly normal round ligament pain, so I haven't been freaking out about it.  Morning sickness has subsided for the most part, so once the tiredness moves on out I'll be a happy camper!

The most disturbing pregnancy "side-effect" thus far has been the massive increase in boob size!  Whoa.... I always wondered how huge my "girls" would get once I was pregnant and now I know!  Ha!  Today I left work a little early (yes, I had to work on Labor Day...ewww) and went to the mall to find a new bra.  Wow....what an experience.... I tried on at least 10 different bras of various enormous sizes and none of them fit!  So frustrating!  And the other customers in the store weren't helping matters much!  As I was trying on my  10th bra in the third department store of the day, a super annoying woman and her super annoying spoiled brat daughter came into the dressing room.  The woman was complaining about her size 34B bra not fitting properly and she was just devastated that she might have to try a 36A!  Here I was trying to cram myself into DD/DDD bras that had cups the size of her little pin head and she's bitching about having to go up a size??  OMG!  Plus it was even more disturbing that she was "modeling" the bras for her 7-8 year old daughter saying things like "do you like how this one looks"??  WTF??  Just a super weird experience all around... but I finally decided on a bra and once I outgrow that one, I'm breaking down and buying the nursing bra...and a wheelbarrow.  :)

Well it's WAY past my bedtime, so I'll bid you adieu until next month...LOL.  Just kidding -- I'm sure I'll blog again before then....I hope!  :)

I'll leave you with a pic of our bambino from 3 weeks ago.... cute profile shot.... I'm jealous of his/her tiny nose.... lol.

Congrats on the nuchal scan results. I found that one particularly relieving myself. :)
Sounds like everything is coming along right on target! (And I can relate to the ta-tas. Really, wow.)
The lady modeling the bra to the kid, seriously disturbing.
