@JDMRS I got shirts/tanks from Isabella Oliver last time (UK brand) and they could double as dresses because they're ruched. Even at 6' you'd still have your bump covered I'm sure!
My treat to myself was taking my kids to the beach to get clams and making clam chowder for dinner. My dh doesn't know it yet but he's gonna be in charge of running to town to get french bread so I can make garlic bread. Yumm!
So in short my treat to myself is my favorite meal
@JDMRS my friend who is 6 feet tall bought empire waist dresses made of soft stretch material and then altered them into shirts. She's really long in the torso tho and even tall shirts by the end of her pregnancy were coming up.
This day was a major treat yo self day for me. I felt so terrible this morning I laid in bed until I had a work meeting at 12:30. For some reason, fast food really helps my nausea (ugh! So gross/unhealthyI know!!) so I had mcdonalds for lunch, Taco Bell for a 4 pm snack and just ate Mac n cheese for dinner. Soooooooo bad!!!!!!! All time low. Oh well.... At this point, whatever works. I'll eat healthy in 2nd tri.
@OrangeEv and well everyone else, I failed miserably at Treating myself today BUT tomorrow is my birthday so I can just make it up tenfold then right??
@rozANDbenSINCE2001@coffee89@AllyTheKid Thanks for the feedback ladies! Good to know I'm not alone! I plan to keep looking, I feel better knowing I'll have at least one pair of pants that look good. I made the mistake of going to an Old Navy near by and they had like two measly shelves of maternity stuff (although I did get a shirt on sale for $2!). Then my cousin told me that at another store in our area they have a legit maternity section, so I plan on going there.
Fortunately, at my work everyone wears dresses during the warmer months, so I fully plan on rocking mostly dresses through my pregnancy. Although a few pairs of leggings would be good, I am such a leggings girl! I tried Target too and it was also an epic fail.
@Blonde1817 Ugh, yes, I forgot to say the in store selection at Old Navy is awful!! I took a risk and just ordered online since you can return things in store. But I was told to just order the same size I am pre-pregnancy in the maternity section. They have some really comfy jersey ruched t shirts and tanks, too! Good luck!
I meant to post yesterday, but I was very pleased with the outcome at the Dr. (healthy, happy baby), so I treated myself to nachos and a pina colada...slurpee and a donut. DGAF! And then let the husband fend for himself for dinner!
I treated myself AGAIN today, on a Wednesday. I caved and bought the Sonoline Doppler. I don't know if this is going to be the biggest mistake, or the best purchase ever. I caved after watching a million youtube videos of women showing how easy it is to find the HB.
@annabenanna I've watched SO many videos too! "Oh I'm 8 weeks today, and here's the heartbeat." WTF! I still can't find it. I hear that it's difficult to find before 12 weeks so I'm not worried. I read somewhere to give up and not be discouraged if you don't find it within 10 minutes, so that's my rule. 10 minutes and if I don't find it, it's just to early for me.
Did you buy one too @Julia70286? The rule for myself is: only once a week. I haven't even given myself a time limit. Maybe I should do 10 minutes too, that's a good rule!
I'VE DECIDED. I'm "treating myself" by making FI go to Sonic after 8 for 1/2 price shakes and get me 2 shakes. Yes, TWO. For myself. I'm not sharing.
Loved your post so much yesterday that when I saw a Sonic after a massive shopping trip today I had to stop. I tried to be good and just get a small shake and then the lady asked if I wanted a medium because they were all half price today. Yep! And if she would have offered me a large I would have taken that too. Ha! So yummy!
