Ha. Yes. They are.
What perfect meme use.
This is what I was most excited for too! I had to wait until like 2 weeks after birth though and now I hope it’s a permanent change in size.
There are some people who don’t go up in cup size during pregnancy, but I started growing around 10-12 weeks and have continued throughout…
I went up around 2nd trimester and kept growing through 3rd and initial weeks postpartum.
Some people keep most of their size afterwards.
I do not like having boobs that big and was therefore lucky-for-me that mine deflated to quite flat after I finally stopped breastfeeding at 2.5 years (it was a slow decline after Duckling was a year old). I hope everyone that wants more boobs gets to keep some size!
This time around I can feel all the “milk preparation tingles” and know what they mean already.
Judging from my family history, unlikely, but I’ll take what I can get when I can get it.
McDonald’s gave Ponder the wrong burger for me and I burst into tears so he’s going back… Hello pregnancy hormones and recent starvation.
Oh no! Sweet Ponder.
I get you. I cried when Greyman said he ate the last of the yogurt. And turned out there was another container. And I have not been starved recently.
Re boobs. As a warning for what is totally possible: mine grew during pregnancy, then a LOT after birth, and then uh… Leftie produces much more than righty, and is 2-3 cup sizes larger 
truly hoping I go back to normal, but you can visibly see a substantial size difference even when I’m fully clothed. But, I was fairly busty prior to pregnancy too. And I think we had feeding asymmetry related to the baby’s brachial plexus injury aka unilateral paralysis. That probably is what messed the supply stuff up, and it’s just been a feedback loop ever since I would guess!
He is a Good Egg.
The feels are real.
Second trimester: must have found it. More interest in food, drinking fluids increased, strong desire to only wear dresses and never speak to a waistband again. It is too cold for dresses so elastic will have to do. I have enough energy to have better personal hygiene.
I can tell I’m a pregnant-for-me shape, nobody else can. I have a strong desire for desserts.
Baby E FINALLY started sleeping through the night this week (at 11 months old!) and pregnant body says I still don’t get to sleep. I was up for 2 hours last night with heartburn 
I had it terribly with Baby E for all 2nd and 3rd trimester, so not having my first night of it until 22 weeks this time is nice, but I would still prefer not to have it at all.
Edited to Add: I’m having a terrible time with these damn reply buttons. I always hit the one to reply to the last person, not to reply to the thread. Oops. Sorry @LadyDuck
Good job Baby E!
Heartburn is the worst. I thought it was just something I’d have to deal with, but my midwives strongly recommended Tums, sleeping on my left side, and no lying down until 1 hour after food (including my pre-bed snack). All of those combined are making a difference for me - not sure if you’ve already tried all this already? Either way I hope you manage to get some sleep tonight.
Yeah, I’m already doing all of those things, plus eating smaller portions so I’m not filling up my stomach too much I had like 10 tums last night even though the bottle says no more than 4 in 24 hours. Last time around I discovered fizzy water helps too since the bubbles help you burp and burping reducing the pain, but even getting up and making fizzy water in the soda stream didn’t help. For really bad nights I have a big foam wedge that I put on the bed to keep myself propped up but it is really hard to sleep on it. It also seems like there is no rhyme or reason to what foods cause it! The normal convention of avoiding things like tomato sauce, spicy foods, etc doesn’t necessarily hold and I remember getting heartburn last time after eating an apple in the middle of the day, but then a few nights later I had a really spicy curry for dinner and was fine.
My friends with bad acid reflux during pregnancy swear by Prevacid so maybe talk to your doctor about different things to try? I’ve found that a little almond milk before bed helps a lot but my reflux isn’t that bad in the grand scheme of things.
A lot of people I knew loved papaya enzyme as an alternative to tums also. I never got any but I got lucky in the heartburn department
Not having even the (low) energy I used to have is super frustrating. I have stairs to stain! Furniture to move! Carpet to tear up! A floor to install! A kitchen to clean! Mulch to move! I don’t have time to be tired!
Sis and her girlfriend are totally getting hired to move the mulch for me. I’ll be inside napping.
Anyone deal with post partum dizziness? It for better for me for a while and is back with a vengeance. May be low BP related? Seems worse after rough nights sleeps. Insights appreciated, brain doesn’t work well right now so I can’t see obvious things.
Basics: I hydrate okay, I am active- mainly walking, daily some body weight work and occasional light weight work. Consistent caffeine intake. Adequate sleep for survival but not stellar (7-8 hours, 2-3 interruptions per night). Consistently sleep hours.
My dizziness was PP thyroiditis that is still hanging around at 22 months PP
