The Bitter with the Sweet

Today I pretty nearly fulfilled a stereotype as I sat down at the coffee table with a plate of dill pickles and green olives, and a dish of ... sherbet. (Ice cream would have been too sticky and gummy!)

It seems like I have suddenly started to show in just a matter of days. I can still suck it in and just look blockish about the waist, but it's not terribly comfortable.

I am happy that the oh-so-unflattering empire-waist babydoll style of tops has been so popular the past year or so. Now I can get used everyday tops on eBay without having to go the more expensive maternity route!

Trousers, now, will be a different story. I can only go unbuttoned for so much longer. (Plus, they fall down.)
