Maternity Clothes Galore

A few of my friends and I have been doing some online shopping for maternity clothes for me. Hehe. It’s so fun to browse through, but what I’ve found out when I actually went shopping physically for maternity pants is that none of them actually fit me. :P From sizes XS to S, they’re still too big for me. I guess they don’t have a size 1 in maternity. I actually ordered a couple pair of pants from Old Navy Maternity, and hopefully they’ll fit, but I wouldn’t count on it. I may just end up returning them. After going to two stores, once with Gran and another one with Jenbug, I ended up trying about 40 pairs of pants and bought 3 pairs. Heh. I’m going again with my awesome possum sister-in-law on Saturday. She’s a lot more experienced in this and maybe she’ll have some ideas. Well, at least I got some pants now. I’ve been wearing sweats to work. Everyone laughs but it’s not too funny, especially since I only have about 2 pairs of sweats that fit me right now. :P

I’m very excited. I’m 13 weeks along now, and the bulge is growing. So cool! I feel five times bigger than I actually am, so I’m always surprised when I look down and the bulge was so small. Heh. It’s the bloated feeling. Just a month and a half to go before we can find out the sex of Baby Bean. Baby Bean knows what Baby Bean is, but we don’t! Hehe.

Hey helen — a friend of mine is a size 1-2 and she said she never once wore a pair of maternity pants during her three pregnancies. Crazy! Perhaps she stuck w/ yoga pants. ;) I’ll have to ask.

But shopping for maternity clothes is one of the funnest things I bet! :)

Oh psst — I tried to find you on facebook so I could see your little bulge! No such luck… can you look me up? Liz Samson.

I have some yoga pants I still fit into, but I mostly wore jeans and professional court pants for work. Unfortunately they don’t work for me anymore. Grr. >.

Congrats on your pregnancy! Trust me you’ll be taking back the Old Navy pants! I’m having the SAME problem!
