Muu-Muus anyone? Another clothing gripe
So even my preggo pants officially don't fit right anymore. I had heard about the panty rollerblind effect, but now my lower back/hips/butt are too wide at one point, and so above a certain point the pants fit, but below they don't and I can't keep them up! This is so frustrating because I don't want to buy any more pants, especially when i think I will have the same problem! I think I need a muu-muu. Seriously. I can't believe I have sunk so low, but it seems only my husbands boxers and a huge t-shirt are comfortable at this point. And it isn't like I am that close to giving birth! I still have 6+ weeks to go! YIKES!

I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL! I had to buy two pairs of pants with 4 weeks remaining of my pregnancy. This made me so mad. But there was no way around it. I was simply huge. I am tall, and typically thin. I gained 55 pounds during the pregnancy, topping out at 207 -- check a few posts back on my blog for more details. My husband and I are about the same size BEFORE I was pregnant, so wearing his clothes was totally out of the question. Talk about depressing. Even the XL stuff at Motherhood Maternity (which I hated, by the way -- walmart quality / mall prices) were tight. EW. I felt sexy and round while naked, but once I put clothes on I felt like a cow. Sorry if this is making you more depressed. I simply cannot imagine going thru my third trimester in the summer. POOR YOU! I had Melody in December... we had our house at 60 degrees and I was still hot! My husband loved it. All this to say -- I know how you feel. Hang in there and go ahead and buy some new clothes.... anything to help you feel better for the next six weeks. It's a LONG time.
I'm right there with you. I am now only wearing skirts. Glorious stretchy cloth waistbands. At home, I immediately change into just a T-shirt.
