Intro: hi working mommas! My little guy will be 7 weeks this week, I will be going back to work in 2 weeks and DS will be staying in daycare. I have enjoyed reading this board so far!!
Dilemma: I'm sick of wearing maternity clothes!!! I gained 40lbs during my pregnancy and 7 weeks PP I'm still 18 lbs over my regular weight. Its all in my butt and legs grrrr. I guess I was just being naive thinking that I would be able to fit into all my work clothes by the time my maternity leave was over. I'm breastfeeding, walking everyday and eating healthy hoping to shed these pounds. My question is, should I go and buy new work clothes to fit my body size now? Or should I stick to my maternity clothes. I really don't want to spend money on "chubby clothes" but I guess I should just bite the bullet and buy a couple things for the next few weeks/months. I was wondering what other moms' experiences were?
Re: Still wearing maternity clothes, frustrated...
I got some great deals at JcPenny's.
FWIW, I am 7lbs under my pre DS2 weight, and some of my pre-pg clothes still don't fit.
Try to find some end-of-season sales and have fun shopping!
