Post partum - what to wear?

nimmunogirl · October 2015

I am 2 and a half weeks pp and back to my pre-pregnancy weight, so my pregnancy pants are huge on me. My pre-pregnancy pants fit, but I have a major muffin top and I feel very uncomfortable in them. To be honest, they were tight before I got pregnant... So do I buy pants in a bigger size or rock yoga pants for the next few weeks and re-assess the situation then? What are you ladies doing?

Sweat pants! I put jeans on when I leave the house only. But sweats feel best on the stitches.

Yoga pants!! Something to support the loose tummy until it goes back to normal.

I went and bought some jeans in a size up. Wearing real clothes made me feel a lot better about the extra belly that I'm still sporting.

I wear maternity leggings or lounge clothes. Anything that isn't tight around my incision

Hold out if can. Wear your old maternity pants with longer tops or dresses. Wait until your at least 6-8 weeks post-partum to determine if you're comfortable at this weight, or if you want to try to lose some.

I've been wearing my low panel maternity jeans and leggings, and when I need to wear my pre-baby jeans, I plan to do the hair tie trick since the waist is the only part not fitting now. And maternity tops or loose fitting regular tops that hide my belly fat.

Second hand jeans that don't create that muffin top are key! I bought several pair between $2-5 each at my local thrift and I could not be happier. I'm 2 weeks PP and can't button any of my pre pregnancy jeans yet. My biggest struggle is tops, nursing tops are pricey and I didn't invest In any yet.

I wore my regular jeans my whole pregnancy thanks to low waisted jeans and carrying high. I left the hospital PP at my pre pregnancy weight but I can tell my clothes just fit weird thanks to loose flab. I am rocking my yoga pants mostly. I like the firmer fit they provide without the pinching and muffin top that my jeans create.
