no mocha you didnt offend me i love the dress but I hope you get a bfp and will have to exchange for a bigger size

that's amazing... are you sure they were 20 weeks? I thought the earliest recorded surviving baby born was at nearly 22 weeks? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/ar...e-parents.html

Sorry you're feeling so sick, tweedle!

I'm in shock about the 00 too - before I started this diet I was a 6/8!

Dress is very pretty, mocha!
Tweddle, I've been on the diet since may 1st too!! Sorry you're feeling bad, hope it passes quickly and you can eat again!!

I started the diet May 1st too! I've lost 20 lbs since then, almost all of it in the first 2 months.

rainbow - I thought it was 20 weeks, but obviously I must be remembering incorrectly. I remember telling my husband about it and saying it was only halfway to term, so maybe it was a few weeks over 20, like 23? It's been a while since I've seen her and talked to her about it. I do know they were in NICU for 6 months.

Ok, since you all have that dress in your minds, I need some fashion advice. What shoes should I wear with it? The only closed-toed shoes I have are black - is that too much contrast with this dress? Should I wear nude pantyhose with it? The ceremony is outside on October 1st, and the weather here that time of year is very unpredictable (and cool), so my nude sandals won't work. For the outside portion I'll wear a wrap or something over it.

Hmm, tricky time of year! In summer you'd wear some pretty sandles! I think black shoes with nude pantyhose (that word is so much sexier than tights!) would be fine and you could accessorise to match.

It's really a summer dress, which is why I got in on sale. I just felt (hoped?) that the dusty rose colour would still be ok in the early Fall, especially since all the Fall clothes in the stores right now seem to be shades of purple and pink.

It's a good colour for a wedding, you'll look gorgeous

Hi all, it's a gorgeous sunny early Autumnal day here and it's making me feel so much happier (and more patient with the monkeys!). I hope you're all having good days too.

AF was due today and I'm having some AF type cramps. I'm trying not to let this worry me as I'm sure this has happened in past pregnancies and I still feel squiffy at the same time and have had sore boobs today (not a usual symptom of either AF or pregnancy for me!). I took an IC preg test last night and it was positive so I'm trying to just ignore the crampy feeling but it's hard not to panic!

Today my sister told me she is ttc#3. She already has a boy and a girl and I wouldn't switch places with her for the world because her life is not always happy (her DS has aspergers and her OH is an alcoholic who has hurt her in the past) but I so know she will get another girl and I'll get another boy! She is the only one who knew we were trying for a girl and she said she'll feel really bad if it works out that way. On a positive note, I may get another little niece even if I don't get my very own daughter!
