Parenting after a Loss

PP wardrobe

What are you ladies wearing or did you wear in the weeks/months postpartum? I feel liek I am living in yoga pants, leggings, nursing tanks and cardigans.  I'd love to be able to wear some 'real clothes" but a disastrous trip to the store to try on jeans last week has left me a bit depressed.  I loaned a bunch of my maternity stuff to a close friend, so i don't have much of that to fall back on.  

When did you buy clothes again (even if they're in a size..or two larger than your "old" size)?

  • I wore my maternity pants until about a week ago (DD is almost 4 months old) since they were just soooo comfy but I stopped because they were looking too baggy and sloppy on me.   I am now wearing what I call my old "fat work pants" but is

  • While on mat leave I also lived in yoga pants, nursing tanks and cardigans. I still only have 1 pair of jeans that fit, but most of my work pants are working out okay. Some are a bit snug, so I am holding off on buying a new wardrobe for now.

  • I lost about 70 lbs before becoming pregnant, so the clothes I've been wearing are a size or two bigger than I was wearing right before getting pregnant. Though unless I am going somewhere, I wear pajamas or sweatpants. Yoga pants have always looked weird
