How do we feel about rompers while pregnant?

rayandbrit · March 2011

would you wear one with a pregnant belly? I was browsing through spring/summer maternity clothes and couldn't make up my mind on this one...

Rompers generally are a big no, pregnant or not. That is, unless you are under 18.

I'm not even 100% sure what a romper is... I thought it was some sort of toddler clothes...

I'm going to need a picture. I was all "eww, rompers!" last summer and then I saw some girls who looked really cute and stylish in them so now I reserve judgment until I see how they look on.

Nms, but if you like them.. Go for it

I would say no solely on the fact that it would require almost complete disrobing to pee.

Absolutely not, it would look ridiculous, IMO. I know they tried to bring back rompers for women last season (especially out here in AZ where it's warm weather ... they had the shorts/strapless ones some people would wear with heels) but I always thought it was a very "young" style. Other than the rompers we associate with babies/children, the new "trendy" rompers only look sometimes cute on petite highschool/college age girls. Some cougers out here wear them, but I always thought it looked odd.

I kind of think it looks a little too teeny-bopper for pregnant mommies. Plus, I can imagine they'd be comfortable or flattering on a pregnant belly, given they are one-piece, often strapless, and usually have a little cinching on the waist ... do they even SELL rompers for pregnant women??

Fo' shizzle.

I would end up needing to carry around a change of clothes and a wetbag.

I agree with Gummybear!

no one over the age of 18 months should wear a romper. Ever.

rayandbrit · March 2011

haha, thank you to those of you that made me giggle. Also, thank you gummybear for pointing out the pee factor... hadn't considered that. The dumb thing is, I would never wear a romper non-pregnant, so I don't know why I had this vision of me bouncing along happily in my maternity romper.

I can't link in this browser, but for the bumpee who asked for a picture:https://cdn-ugc.cafemom.com/gen/constrain/500/500/85/2010/08/30/14/86/gd/pouyzjob0ovzct.jpg?imageId=19582778

I can't remember which website I saw the maternity ones in, but that's alicia keys pregnant in one

Well I guess Im the unpopular opinion...haha. I have never owned a romper and never really wanted one before, but I think it would be comfy and quick for being pregnant in the Spring/Summer. They also tend to be light weight. I guess it is also because I dont care much about if I look like a house in something or not and it would save time and effort on picking out an outfit. So I would say give it a try.

And for being over 18...I think alot of style no-no's are ok when you are pregnant. Who cares, people are going to think your bump is too cute anyway

God no! You will never catch me in a romper - pregnant or not.

the lightweight/whole outfit in 1 thing was what got me thinkin... who knows, I wore a lot of things in my last pregnancy once I got hot enough that I wouldn't have ever planned on, ha I may end up rompin around

kathymarie · March 2011

I think that is cute and would look super cute on you.

I thought you'd meant something like this, which is a hell-to-the-no.

OMG, this is what I was thinking too... the other didn't look so bad... and IMO is probably one of those things that is a yes for some and "not ah" for others.

No better way to make a pregnant woman look HUGE than putting her in overalls. Rompers should not even exist for people over age 15.

I agree. The pic OP posted is a lot different than I was expecting.

soontobemrsdavis · March 2011

I like them. The stylish ones, that is.

ensorensen · March 2011

I saw a cute romper that was a swimsuit coverup on Motherhood.com. I thought it was cute! If I didn't hate my legs so bad I would have bought it for sure!! I think you should go for it
