4 months and fluttering??

So this past week I hit the 4 month mark. Which is really exciting to Nate and myself. This is the time that my belly is growing by the second and it doesn't feel like I am "fluffy" anymore. I have had multiple people ask me if I can feel the baby. I have said yes and no to answer this question but to be completely honest, I really don't know what I am feeling for?? They say it feels like butterflies fluttering around in your stomach or it feels like gas. Well, I have felt both and I still can not say for certain that it is my little baby or nerves or dinner. I'm hoping that I will feel something definitive soon!!

This is also the time that we find out if we are having a girl nugget or a boy nugget. We are taking bets this week, since next week we have our BIG ultra sound and they tell us bows or bow-ties. It is so funny because my dad has said from the very beginning that it is a girl, yet I have the strongest feeling that it is a boy.... Hmm I guess the waiting continues.

Anyways, here is my 4 month picture to keep you all updated. Just a warning, It was 9 at night and I had just had a big dinner, so that might add to the belly being much bigger this month.... or it might be because there is a BABY growing in my freaking tummy!! :)

Closet break down....

So going through this 1st pregnancy is such a blessing and a roller coaster at the same time. You moms out there know what I am talking about.

One day I fit into EVERYTHING, and then the next day I can not fit into ANYTHING in my closet. So needless to say, this past weekend I had my very first meltdown. Don't laugh. Well, ok you can laugh, since my husband filmed it because he though I needed to be put on a 5150 hold.

Going through my closet and pulling out all the short tank tops that no one wants to see on a preggers was actually pretty funny to look at imagine the stares and glares that people would give me if I actually wore them in public. Well, after my meltdown and then closet raid/throw away, my husband decided that a shopping trip was in order. Geez, I knew I loved him... I should have his babies.

Maternity clothes shopping is kinda overwhelming for the 1st go around. Here's what was going through my head.
1. How big is my belly REALLY going to get??
2. What size do I start off with?
3. Yes I want all pants to be equipped with a belly band, even when I'm not preggers.

After voicing my concerns to my husband about sizing and colors and patterns, a super nice women, that was also shopping, started to give me the low down on everything. Start with the size you normally wear and then maybe when you belly gets bigger go up a size. Pants are what size you wear now, ect. ect.

With that information in hand, I was picking everything off the racks. It was super fun to plan ahead and pick out different outfits with a belly in mind. Nate had fun too and was helping with colors and patterns. We both came to the conclusion, pregnant women wear A LOT of stripes!!! Which is great because I'm pretty sure I look good in stripes.

Well that is all for now! Till next time.
