Success after IF

GIrls who exercise, a ?

Do you wear maternity workout stuff?  My first pregnancy, I was able to wear all my normal stuff the whole time. This time, it just isn't happening.

Where do you get your clothes to workout in?

 

A PIP of why I need some special shorts and tanks : )  This was taken at 19 weeks, and I am only getting bigger and bigger every day.

  • OMG, first of all your bump is soo cute!! 

    Second, when I was into working out (now that I am at the end I have lost all motivation) I got some cute stuff at Target, I just got stuff that was way bigger. SHorts, and two tees. 

    I did invest in some yoga pants for my prenatal yoga class that I love from (LuLulmon). But I havn't really seen any "maternity workout cloths" per say. Maybe we should design some??!! I am sure there is a market for it, most of the stuff at Motherhood/Destination is lounge ware...

    Ditto on both points! I haven't mustered the energy or motivation to work out, and I'm not even pregnant, let alone with twins. Kudos to you. Seriously!

  • Can you borrow some of your husband's t-shirts or workout shirts? It won't be that cute, but probably more practical than buying stuff that you will only use for a few months.

    You are so sweet! But I feel like more of a hot mess than anything!

    Yup, that's what I did!  Not fashionable, but I didn't care!  :)

  • I bought some workout shorts and sports bras in a bigger size in hopes that I would exercise... I only used them for working out a handful of times :) But I did wear them after I had DD, and unfortunately I can still wear some of them to workout in. I borrowed some of DH's shirts and wore some of the bigger shirts I had.

  • Whoa, momma!  You are a hottie!  :)

    I couldn't really exercise with the twins (started having BH super early), but when I was pg with Ava I just bought yoga pants with a drawstring that went below the belly.  For tops I bought a few maternity tanks from Old Navy and otherwise just wore bigger t-shirts.

  • I just wore big sweats and big t shirts :)
    Married on 3.20.2004. It took 30 month, 2 failed adoptions and IVF for our first miracle. We have had 9 foster kids since he was born and started the domestic adoption process when he was 10 month old, we had 4 failed matches in that time. After our daughter was born we brought her home and spent 2 weeks fearing we might lose her because of complications that came up. But Praise God all went through and she is ours forever!

  • I got my stuff at Old Navy.  I didn't need much, so I just bought a few things there.  GL!
  • Well, my workouts during pregnancy are not the same as pre-pregnancy, so I don't really get as sweaty. Plus the boob faerie was never kind to me, and I never needed more support than my sports-bra already provided me.

    As such.... I just wear my regular work-out pants, but have it sit below the belly. I also wear stretchy t-shirts courtesy of Old Navy. The shirts are great post-partum too.

    I did a combination of pants from Target in a bigger size and yoga pants from Lululemon. I love my lululemon pants!!

    Also, at the time, not sure if it's still the case, Lululemon had some really long cotton tshirts that were super cute and always long enough to cover my belly, up to 40 weeks.

    Good luck!

    And PS, you look totally cute! :)

  • Come visit me at lululemon!!!! I'm a manager there :)   My name is Shannon. We have TONS of amazing pants, shorts, tanks, tees, etc. None of it is actually "maternity", but I'm telling you- you'll LIVE in this stuff!!

    It's all great for working out, and the best part is that it's fashionable too! We love pregnant bellies at lululemon! I'm TTC and I can't wait to have a belly in all of my lulu clothes. Hope to see you soon!
