BORED! with my clothes

Jenny0929 · April 2012

So this is my last pregnancy and I haven't gone to crazy with clothes because I will give them away to friends/family eventually and don't want to spend a lot on stuff I won't have use for again (really wish I hadn't gotten rid of all my stuff from the last two times- but it has been four years and we thought we were probably done) at any rate... anyone else completely tired of their wardrobe? I have added a few new tops here and there but am so sick of wearing the same outfits every week! I want to go on a huge shopping binge and buy some cute new outfits, and I just might! I had a rough week with being diagnosed with GD and have worked hard to get the hang of managing my meals and snacks and checking my blood four times a day, I've earned a new outfit (or several) right!?

ME!! The other day I was so stressed after work that I stopped at Kohls and get 3 new shirts - all short sleeves. Now the north east is having some weird cold snap and I can't even wear them and try to get my money's worth. ARG!

I hear that (in Massachusetts myself)- layer with some light sweaters!

I am so sick of my clothes too! I am in the homestretch though so I decided to try and avoid buying anything unless its super cheap! I had to buy a few special occasion dresses for weddings/bachelorette parties/rehearsal dinners that I have to go to so I decided I'm about maxed out on buying clothes that I will never be able to wear again.

I'm not tired of mine because I gave away my entire pre-pregnancy wardrobe (moving/older clothes that needed to be gone!), and I keep splurging at Motherhood! Either that or I will go visit my mom and she will have a bag of 5 or 6 shirts/tanks/clothes that she "just picked up from the mall and thought of me"-- sweet, but funny that I will probably not wear the same thing twice for awhile!

I was around 5 months...I was going crazy! but then I got a lot of hand me downs, b-day gifts, and stuff at the consignment shop. I am pretty set now

peeper72 · April 2012

Me too! I lent all of my stuff out and only about 1/2 - 2/3 of it came back to me - and not the good half

I've rounded out with a couple of new things but yes, I'm bored already.

I think you definitely deserve a couple new things! I think when you look better it makes you feel better. I'm trying really hard not to spend too much money on clothes right now so I've been going to consignment stores. I actually find some pretty good stuff. You figure maternity clothes were only worn for a few months so they're usually in good shape. But I agree completely I'm so sick of my clothes!! But I think I might miss the stretchy waistbands. Sometimes jeans can be very uncomfortable!

I have trouble getting dressed every day because I don't want to repeat things too much! I thought I had a lot, but compared to my regular wardrobe I have nothing. I also thought I hit the mother load when I received two huge tubs from my sister and a coworker-nope! In one the clothes were all a size or two too small and in the other they are all two to three sizes too big, I am just glad I am only working four more weeks (then school's out!) and then I can just throw on shorts and a tank top every day (weather permitting) until baby comes.

I'm getting tired wearing the same baggy clothes and now some of my baggy pants are starting to NOT FIT! I am glad I am gaining weight and baby is growing but I don't want to have to spend the money on new clothes that will fit, especially since I have about less than 11 weeks left of pregnancy (according to due date anyway). Maternity clothes are very limited and very expensive.

Girl! If you feel like you want new clothes to make yourself feel better you should do it! GD is tough hell regular diabetes is tough for people! Do what you can to make yourself feel better. Once I am done with work, I am having a 'Mommy, wants to get pampered day'. Us preggos deserve to feel good about ourselves!

I hear ya! I'm so tired of my clothes too, rotating the same few outfits. Blah. I have 3 tank tops that I LOVE that I got at Old Navy and I layer then so I wear one everyday. I wish I had more of them actually but they aren't on sale anymore and they don't have this particular style in many colors. I did order a few new tops from Old Navy online the other night though so hopefully those get here soon. I'm still going to need a couple things for the summer when it gets real hot cause I won't be wearing my big baggy jeans then! I'm going to check out Kohl's maternity stuff, I keep forgetting about them and then I read about others here buying stuff there.

I can sympathize with you....I have GD (found out at the end of March) and was testing my blood 7 times a day and urine 2 times a day.
Now I'm on insulin twice a day but the testing has cut down to 4 times a day.

I've found that a little retail therapy makes everything better Wink

One of my favorite things in life is putting together new clothing combination an pre-pg I rarely wore the same outfit twice. So, yeah, I'm sick of wearing things that usually have a longer time between rotations. I did buy a few things today, a couple tops with runched sides, some T-shirt cardigan things I can throw over my old navy tank tops and a couple empire waist jersey dresses. All of the stuff I can wear again.

I feel like I always buy a few shirts or dresses and think this will last me till July. Then 2 weeks later I think now what? I feel like I wear the same things over and over again.
