Parenting after a Loss

What did you wear at 3w pp?

I'm having a clothing dilemma. My maternity pants are falling down because there's no firm bump to hold them up. But even my "fattest" regular pants are too tight. What to do?? I don't remember it taking this long to fit into at least some regular clothes after DD 1 was born..:then again it was summer.

I'm tired of pulling my pants up, lol.

  • Jammies. And workout pants. Not cute, but loose enough to go over the pp pudge.

  • I think it was 3 months before I fit into my regular pants so I kept wearing my maternity pants (I wore the kind that had the stretchy part all the way up over my belly, not the kind where the band was under my belly.  Those never stayed up on me!).  Those and yoga pants.

  • Yoga pants and jammies. Honestly, unless I have to run errands or work...I'm still mostly in my yoga pants. Am I the only one?!

    ETA: And nursing tanks...soooo sexy, I know ;]

  • Jammies, yoga pants, low cut mat pants, and scrubs. Things got redistributed so even though I'm at the pp weight my old pants still don't fit. I am guilty of still wearing stretchy waist clothes. *sigh* Maybe for new years I'll work towards giving them up.

  • I was lucky it was summer, I didn't touch jeans for months. Mostly linen shorts and cargo-style capris.
  • I wore skirts until I could fit into regular pants. But I mostly lived in jammies :D

  • Leggings. I finally was able to wear a pair of jeggings so at least it looks like I'm wearing jeans. But I can definitely say I haven't tried hard to dress up. Comfy is all that matters to me. I wear my maternity leggings too. They are loose on the belly but much more comfortable. I had a csection and anything tight near my incision bothers me.

  • I wore sweats and yoga pants a lot.  I also used my bella band to hold up my maternity jeans.  Eventually I decided to buy a pair of bigger jeans for $17 from Old Navy when I had a coupon.

  • I lived (and still live) in pj's, maternity jeans (which are too big on me, but my biggest reg. jeans are just tight enough to give me the WORST muffin top, and they don't zip *sigh*).  I caved and got a moo-moo looking pj robe that zips in the front for more comfort and to hide the belly bulge for a bit longer . . . I was just tired of looking down and seeing a huge, flabby, roll squeezed into tight pj pants :P

  • At the house I wore PJ pants and sweats.  About 2 or 3 weeks pp I ventured out to Marshalls and bought 2 pairs of jeans.  One was one size bigger than normal and the other was two sizes bigger. I made sure I did not have a muffin top. They were cut differently (looser) than the pants I normally wear, but weren't mom jeans-and are pretty figure flattering. I actually wear those pants now because my maternity pants are still too big. They are Seven and Revolt brand jeans.

    Low rider maternity jeans didn't ever stay up on me for whatever reason (even at 39 weeks) and my other ones fell off about a week PP.
