Yes Jacks mum!!! I am exactly the same, havent felt movement and sometimes i wonder if I am pregnant or if i just have a fat belly which I can partially suck in?!?!?! If it wasnt for the nausea that I have been getting every second day or so STILL and my total aversion to coffee I would be seriously doubting myself LOL!

Well I'm having a bad day of it today, after proudly showing off my belly (well, around the house!) yesterday in a singlet and nice, comfy, but not frumpy maternity pants, today I have bad hair, bad skin, a tension headache, and haven't yet bought enough maternity clothes, so the good pants are in the wash, leaving me wearing UGLY pants (I've decided yoga pants only look good on people in yoga class - on me they look like nana slacks) and a baggy T. I'm frumpy, and want to cry when I pass mirrors!! I've decided we feel a heck of a lot better about our pregnant bodies when we have nice clothes to put them in. I'm off to the shops next week.

Awww Andie!!! 
I was exactly like you a few months ago, in that "too big for normal clothes, not big enough for maternity clothes" stage (and I think I'll burn my yoga pants after bubs is born lol)
It's a shame that places like Pumpkin Patch charge so much for clothes you'll wear at the most for 4 months! Have you tried just buying bigger sizes from normal clothing stores? I can still get into size 16 Glassons tops which are cheap enough and don't make me feel frumpy 
Good luck!

Actually I have seen a few really nice and relatively cheap tops at Glassons that are deisgned in a way that could suit preggy ladies, I am going to have another look at them on the weekend
DOnt worry Andie I have those days too - more and more often! Occasionally I find something in my wardrobe that doesnt look totally hideous but thats gettign pretty rare these days lol!
I just keep thinking how good it will feel to have my body back to myself, and it's only abother 20 weeks, hoepfully it will fly by

I totally understand where you are coming from!!
I dont remember having too many problems with clothes and how I felt the first time around..
This time I feel like a fatty!I must just be a different shape or something!
I have found a couple of tops at Glassons that are great and did make me feel better!
Shopping is great ...so is carrot cake to make you feel good!!

Well, gotta love that shop The House Of G! I found a great top there today, cut perfectly for a pregnant shape, and fitting in with my sort of style... ahhhh. Apart from that, got great plain maternity pants at K-Mart (mmm, 25% off sale too!) along with a couple of tops and a couple more at Pagani of all places. Frumpy no longer!!! Off to the mall, ladies!
I hear what people are saying about Pumpkin Patch - I scored some fantastic second-hand PP pants and they're wonderful, but when I went into the shop and saw what they were charging for them... holy cow!

i'm ok in the tops area, most of them were too tight for me before i was preggers showing off my abundance of wobbliness. now that my belly is 'showing' (unless i suck it in), i love wearing tight tops.
my prob is...i don't have enough of the right kind. unless its really hot or really cold i'm ok, if it's in between i'm screwed!  i need to go shopping but no $$. as for pants....i'm ok if i don't need to leave the house, i live in my baggy arse trackpants.
