PP wardrobe

What are you ladies wearing these days? I've been wearing a lot of sweatpants and nursing tops lately, but I really want to start wearing real clothes again. I hate wearing my pre-pregnancy jeans with a Bella Band because I'm constantly having to pull my pants up and adjust everything..

I'm tempted to buy a few pairs of new jeans in a larger size, but I don't know how my body is going to change in the coming weeks.. So frustrating! I'm sick of wearing the same few things over and over!!

Re: PP wardrobe

  • I could have written this post.  My weight is back to my PP weight but my body has shifted and is real flabby still that none of my PP pants fit.  I wear lounge pants most of the time or maternity jeans or my bella band if I'm going somewhere.  I really thought things would be back to normal by 6 weeks but I have to remind myself it took 9 months to get that big, it may take 9 months to get back to where I was.  I think I will buy some bigger pants and cut the size tag out of it so I don't dwell on it.

  • Around the house it is a lot of pajamas and t-shirts.  

    When I get out, my prepreg jeans fit (and nearly fall off)... I need a belt bad.  I spend half the day hiking them up.  Course this is only because I was overweight before getting pregnant and now BFing is helping me lose weight fast!  Hate the flab in the stomach area though... still wearing loose shirts.

  • I hear ya! We are actually going on our first shopping trip with Kindle tomorrow because mommy needs some new clothes! I feel pretty good..I'm below my pre-pregnancy weight but I do have some extra/loose belly skin.. so I need to find some stuff that will work around it and will also make me feel like a human being in normal clothes!

  • I actually bought new jeans because I honestly think my hips got wider. Also my boobs are so much bigger, but I can still wear the t-shirts that I always wore before pregnancy, but not the button up shirts. I need to go shopping before I go back to work next week.
  • If I do wear something besides nursing tanks and cozy pajama pants, I tend to go for those stretchy skirts that Old Navy sells. Cheap and they are very forgiving to whatever size you may be. I also go for goucho type pants too. I lost a lot of weight but I am scared to try on pre pregnancy jeans because I will feel defeated if they don't fit :P

  • I am wearing my maternity jeans and some maternity tops/some regular tops.  I can't wait to fully wear regular (non-maternity) clothes again and go shopping!

  • I bought a new pair of jeans from Wal-Mart because I hate my maternity jeans. I figured they're cheap enough that even if l only get a few month's wear out of them it's worth it. 

    As for tops I wear a lot of tank tops or button up tops I got cheap from Target. If I'm wearing a tank I'll put a cardigan or light jacket over it when I go out. I can still wear some of my prepreg T's, but some of the more fitted ones are a little tight around the boobies.

    This is me exactly. I cannot wait to wear regular clothes again. I'm so tired of my maternity things but I'm still up 10lbs- thankfully I can finally start exercising next weekend.
