Pregnant after a Loss

Must stop buying maternity clothes...

Curse you, Old Navy, and your killer deals! And my insatiable desire to live in clothes that feel like pajamas. I've always had it, but pregnancy makes it more possible than ever before.

Surely I am not alone?

Re: Must stop buying maternity clothes...

  • Definitely not alone.  As someone who had her stomach as a "problem area" that I tried desperately to hide before, I am seriously LOVING being able to show off a hard, round, bump.

    I have gone overboard as well.

  • I am glad I'm not alone! I'm trying to buy things I know I'll be able to wear for the long haul, and just living in leggings and breezy dresses well before their season right now.

    Curses! :D I swear I have enough now, and a coworker is loaning me all of her stuff, too. We shall see. My problem is, of course, that I've always been one of those despicable people who changes their clothes three times every morning because they can't decide what to wear, and I know I can't afford that kind of variety in maternity wear!

  • I. love. maternity. clothes. My husband wanted to stage an intervention over it. I gradually calmed down with the buying, but it is a lot of fun! Whenever I'm in Target, I still have to look at their maternity clothes. I actually bought a couple items for my hospital to go bag, that was my excuse!

  • Hi, my name is Jaimi, and I too am addicted to buying maternity clothes!  I have actually already outgrown a few of the ones I bought early on so I've had to re-stock!  Oops!  Love that Old Navy sale though...their maternity sweatpants are amazeballs!!

    They're just so cute! I can't wait for a proper bump to show them off.

    I love that you said amazeballs.

    And now wish I'd bought sweatpants, too.

    You will have a big, beautiful bump soon! I found a lot of maternity clothes accentuate the bump, which I love. I am a self-proclaimed belly whore Stick out tongue

  • I went crazy buying things around 12-14 weeks.  DH had to stop me!  Now, none of the items I bought fit.  I am in desperate need of a pair of jeans and a few shirts but I only have about 6 weeks left!  I don't know if I want to spend any more money on maternity clothes.  I should have bought mediums to start... not smalls.
