How far along? 4 weeks, the joys of fertility treatment is you can pinpoint when exactly when conception was. Some women don’t even realize they are pregnant at this point?
Size of baby: poppyseed
Total weight gain/measurements: unsure right now
Maternity clothes: Plus size maternity clothes are almost impossible to find. I found out I was pregnant on Friday, and was already planning to spend the weekend shopping at the outlets with my sister in law (and my future niece/nephew!) and my mom. Since we were headed to a maternity outlet, I stocked up on a few basic items on sale. I am not in any of them yet, but I am so bloated it’s tempting. Thankfully working from home allows me to wear yoga pants.
Sleep: This mama is tired. All the time. I am sleeping pretty well, but getting up to pee a few times a night.
Best moment this week: Finding out for sure we are pregnant!
Miss anything? Such a strange question – I do miss lunch meat, but it is worth it in the end.
Movement: Still got a ways to go.
Food cravings: More food aversions then anything right now. I do crave MEAT. Lots of protein.
Anything making you queasy or sick? Cooked green peppers, even just the smell makes me want to vomit.
Symptoms: fatigue, mild cramps, constipation, zitty chest, a little moody (probably a lot moody if you ask anyone else)

When we first found out we were pregnant with our first I was super excited about going maternity clothes shopping too and quickly became discouraged since I’m a plus size too.
At the Tanger Outlets in Lancaster, PA off of Rt. 30/Lincoln Highway I had a lot of success at the Motherhood Maternity store there. I also went in a couple other MM stores while pregnant and had an ok variety (one in Atloona, Pa, the other in a mall nearish Germantown, MD).
I’ve also had quite a bit of success at Target. I’ve found tons of maternity clothes both in stores and online with Target.
Hope you don’t get discouraged trying to find maternity clothes – they’re out there I promise!! 🙂
Congratulations again on your little poppy seed! Couldn’t be happier for you 🙂
