    Team wear all the leggings!!!

    This being my first pregnancy during the fall (where I'm really pregnant) I plan on wearing those and maternity skinny jeans with long tunics and sweaters ALL the time. But butt covering is a must!

  • Yes see skinny jeans are okay. They're thicker and (at least the ones I wear) have no chance of VPL.
  • I love leggings... but I wear them with dresses or shirts that are like dresses. @ChipMonster I work at a school too and it frustrates me so much when the silly student interns come in wearing them with tops that don't cover their butts. You're supposed to be overly cautious with your wardrobe as an intern!

    ^^^^^ THIS!! I teach at a school where the kids wear uniforms. Our principal is pretty strict with kids' dress code. She had to bring up teacher dress code at the last meeting! No, don't show your cleavage, butt and lady parts.... Soooo unprofessional.

    My UO: Pregnancy doesn't give you the right to wear latex everything in the workplace. I am ALL for showing the adorable bump, but your bodysuit is not appropriate! Cover your bum.
  • I hate Elf on a Shelf.  All the teachers at my school seem to do it and my kids always ask "Why don't we have an elf?"  And I say because they are all so good Santa doesn't need to send a spy(LIES).  But seriously, that elf creeps me the f out.  And it seems like some sort of competition on Facebook...who can be the most creative with their disturbing elf?  No thank you.



    Agreed! My daughter has asked but I can't do it. Creepy factor but I'm too lazy b

    This is perfect.
  • I live in yoga pants. I work at a daycare where I have to watch 8 newborns, so that means constantly bending down and sitting on the floor so I have to be comfortable!

    I have two UO.
    1. I HATE sushi, bring on the flack!
    2. I have never watched or wanted to watch Star Wars, Star Trek or Harry Potter. X_X

    My mom got us one a few years ago. It's a pain in the ass, but CHRISTMAS MAGIC! Lol

    Agreed!  We don't do it for my step-kids.  The elf is creepy, and it's definitely a parent competition thing.

  • #1 - yes to all the leggings!!! When it gets colder that is all I will wear (with longer shirts/sweaters unless I'm at home).

    #2 - this!!! I think the elf is so creepy!!! Someone gave me one for my baby shower for dd. it magically got lost...

    My uo: I'm ready for fall/winter to come. When I get pregnant I have the urge to wear layers (probably most so now because I don't look Preggo, I just look like I've packed on a few). I don't like wearing less because it's hot out when I feel so blah.

    I think some of the GIFS are overdone (gasp). I love a good gif just as much as the next person, but placement is everything and not all GIFS are created equal.

    You ladies must all live in warmer climates than me. I can't even imagine wearing leggings in the winter.
    We had a blizzard that dropped 6 ft of snow in 24 hours. Eta this past January.

    lived it. Was not wearing leggings then - let me tell you. SO was SICK of shoveling. lmaoo
  • My UO is:
    I hate it when I see peoples kids running around the mall, Walmart, grocery stores etc with no shoes on.
    Do people not realize what kind of germs are on the floor, imagine -shudders- I don't even want to think about it.
    I understand some kids just don't like shoes, but keep them in a stroller or in a cart/buggy or something!

    Hepatitis C can live on a surface (not properly cleaned) for 7days.

    I'd probably judge somebody not washing their kids feet for seven days a little harder.
  • I know I'm supposed to embrace my body after children but can't stop thinking about the abdominal lipo and tummy tuck I've promised myself 1 year after this baby is born. I lost my baby weight with my first 2 but my stomach will not stop looking horrible no matter what food I cut or what workouts I do.

    I want snow!
  • I love leggings! I wear them all the time in winter! But usually with a long shirt to cover my bum!

    My UO: the threads that people complain about their body I really don't get, if you are that scared to tack on some extra weight, idk? For me I'm much more frustrated with being short breathed and starting to wiggle to get out of bed lol. I get it's frustrating but if you're that scared, eat healthy, light excersize and just be self aware.

  • @StephPegasus Louisiana lady here! I've experienced an 80 degree Christmas. Screw leggings. I wear shorts during the winter!

  • Once I learned, I just can't stop.

    It depends if you are wearing them to do something outside, or just to run from the car to the house/store/office. The fleece lined leggings would also be great for winter. But for dog walks in the coldest part of winter I would wear snow pants, intense winter boots, etc. to stay warm.

    I live in ND so frequently have -10, 20, 30 or much colder days. Fleece leggings all the way!
    Granted those days if I'm going anywhere I'm just running inside!

  • @StephPegasus Why did I even ask!
    BabyFetus Ticker
  • @StephPegasus are you a fellow New Englander? I live in Western Mass and commute to Worcester for school. I honestly never thought I'd see green grass again after this past winter. The only upside of experiencing that is DH promised me a more snow-friendly vehicle than my orange Scion for this winter :)

    Love HP but agreed, absolutely no desire for the Star Treks - not a Trekkie!

    Why yes. We moved to Worcester last summer & bought a house in a small town north of there in May. We are loving it here so far :)
  • I'm seriously opening myself up to flaming by posting this, BUT...

    my uo is I hate chocolate (for the most part). The only chocolate I will tolerate is chocolate candy and brownies. Keep the chocolate ice cream, cake, fudge, syrup, etc. away!
