9 Weeks

*****This post was originally written on 11/15/11*****

More of the same stuff this week…hunger…tiredness…a little nausea…but mostly just tired.  Yesterday I went to bed at 9:30 and probably fell asleep by 10.  No joke.  I haven’t done that since I was probably in middle school?

I tried on some maternity jeans at Kohl’s today just to get an idea as to how they fit and they were huge.  Luckily my jeans are still fitting okay but the pants I wore to work yesterday were definitely not…good thing I have my own office since I had to unbutton them in the afternoon.  I’ll probably be switching to some of the larger pants I wore last winter when I was heavier very soon.  P.S. Why are maternity clothes so expensive?  I’m hoping a lot of my looser tops will fit for awhile because the bargain shopper in me was not happy.
