Ugh!!! Clothes...

Kdrake8

Hey girls!  Hope everyone had a good day today

So... this morning when I got up, I headed to my pile of "skirts that fit".  (I teach in an un-airconditioned building, so pants aren't an option right now)... and.. ALMOST NONE FIT!!!  The ones that would fit, I totally looked SO pregnant.  Ugh!  I felt like a huge cow.

I slapped on the dress I wore at Orientation in early August, and felt bad about re-wearing something already, and frustrated because I have lots of beautiful clothes that won't fit! 

This awkward belly is really getting to me and making me emotional/upset.  I haven't even gained any weight; I'm still down 3 lbs.  It's so frustrating!!!!!!!!

In any case, sorry to all   I just needed to vent a little to some people that would (hopefully!) understand where I'm coming from.  I'm hoping tomorrow will be a better day.  My mom is taking me shopping after work for some more comfortable clothes

I can totally relate. I got outted by a dress I wore on Monday to work. I'm definitely hitting the Labor Day sales this weekend.

My bedroom is a diaster because each morning I try on clothes and nothing fits. My shirts are all in my arm pits or are pulling because my boobs are bigger and I have this bloat that will not go away. I can relate!

I am so mad I missed the Gap Denim sale! I hope they go back on sale this weekend!

It takes me about 10 mins to get dressed in the morning becuase nothing fits!  And it's daily that something else doesn't fit.  Stupid bloat!

The bloat is outrageous.  I saw my shadow on our wall today and I almost cried. It's not a baby bump, I feel like a 50 yr old trucker with a beer belly.  DH thinks it's "cute" and continues to say "All aboard the bloat boat, toot toot."  I could kill him.

Clothes are majorly frustrating for me as well right now. I saved all of my maternity clothes from DS, but I borrowed most of my summer stuff which I have since returned. I can only manage to be comfortable in regular jeans for a few hours at most these days. Then I have to break out the sweat pants. I'm majorly worried about an all-day work conference I have to go to next week (I normally work from home) since I haven't told them I'm pregnant yet.

I am going shopping this weekend. I need some pants that I can wear comfortably. I am miserable now. Even in the morning, I am chubby to begin with and my belly has already rounded out to the point where my belly band is just not cutting it.  The jeans/pants cut into my gut just the wrong way and it sucks.

I want to start wearing dresses but I NEVER wear dresses (except for REALLY important meetings) when I am at work and I feel like the entire facility will know that "that girl in HR" must be pregnant if I start wearing them often.

Can't wait to let the baby out of the belly and start wearing dresses and not caring who sees my bump (bloat or not).

Doesn't it seem so unfair that such a tiny person could cause so much bloat? Causing trouble already, and no bigger than a pea! Yeah, stretchy pants and skirts are all I can fit in right now. I'm hoping I'll carry high and interior like the last one, but the way my pants are fitting, it doesn't seem likely.

I am down to 3 paris of pants that I can fit in comfortably.  I asked my husband last night if he thought people at work would notice if I wore the same pair of pants that I wore eariler in the week. (I am mainly worried because the pair I was going to rewear was a pair of white capris so I figued it might be obvious.) My husband said that he wouldn't worry if they noticed it was the same pair of pants because I wasn't going to be able to hide it much longer anyway with the way my boobs are growing and my hips are spreading.  Seriously, doesn't he know it's dangerous to tell a pregnant woman that her hips are spreading?  (Even though they definitely are!)

My tops and bras are getting snug thanks to my 1 enormous boob life isn't fair.

I'm a teacher too, and I have to rewear my 5 pairs of pants/capris that fit every week. I try to change out different tops so it's not too noticeable!
