I SAH with Colby so I wear cotton shorts and t-shirts almost every day. I worked when I was pregnant with him and I hated wearing maternity dress clothes in the heat!
I hated the bella band!!!! It always rode down, but I'm plus sized so maybe that had something to do with it.
Knock on wood, no bloating yet, but I will have to buy a whole new pg SAHM wardrobe. All my maternity stuff from LO is polyster-y work stuff. Uggh.

I'm not feeling too bloated, but then again, I work from home so I do get to wear comfy clothes all day... which is awesome! We'll see if I'm still comfortable this weekend when we're visiting my ILs and I have to wear actual clothes for 2 days
I've taken to wearing a lot of dresses to work and around the house! All my summer clothes from last year were already tight because I gained a little weight over winter (oops) so now that I'm all bloated, forget about it!
I've been off for the last few weeks and since getting the BFP I have pretty much lived in yoga pants/capris. I start teaching summer school next week though so I have to go back to real clothes, boo!
I live in jogging shorts, maxi dresses, and a swim suit right now. But that's because I don't work and can use the "it has to be easy to breastfeed in and hide spit up well" excuse with a 7 month old at home.
Yes! That would be awesome. I dug out some bigger pants yesterday from before I lost all the baby weight last time and it was so nice. I can't wait until I'm "out" and big enough to wear maternity jeans instead.
Today I have one a soft tunic and leggins. Awesome.
Yesterday my 5yo told me that my tummy was fluffy and big. She doesn't know I'm pg. I didn't think I was that bloated yet, but I guess I am! Thank goodness all my jeans are a little loose in the waist.
You know, I love the idea of the Bella Band, but once I just broke down and bought Old Navy's below the belly jeans (they have denim over the elastic), I haven't looked back. I'll just wear my regular stuff until they don't fit comfortably, then I'll switch with no qualms. LOVE those jeans.

Thank you! I work from home a few days a week, so I am totally taking advantage of not dressing up those days!
I will admit I busted out my BellaBand this last weekend so I could keep the top button of my jean shorts unbuttoned! Worked great ha!
this makes me feel better, this is my first, so i've debated going out and buying one!
Totally worth it! I had one in 3 diff colors by the end of my first pg.

OOOOO!! I forgot about my belly band. I am going to have to go dig that baby out of storage!
