in 1st Trimester
My husband and I are going on an anniversary vacation/babymoon December 7-11 to the Bahamas! Woohoo! I am worried that my board shorts that I wear with my swim suit won't fit and the my regular jean shorts won't fit! It being November now, I've looked a bit online and my size tends to be sold out. Any suggestions???

    Maybe try Ebay? I bought two pairs of expensive jeans from a pea in the pod there that were in excellent condition.

    Wrap around skirts. Buy one cheap at Target, use it for all the things. Or so I've heard for that awkward phase between pants are too tight and maternity clothes are too loose.

    Leggings and blousey shirts!! 

    We have a cruise planned for my 12th and 13th week over Christmas break. I have some elastic pants and shorts that are big on me now that I should get altered but havent because we were planning on getting pregnant. 

    Someone gave me the advice to go ahead and get some maternity leggings from kohls. 

    Maybe look at Old Navy or other places like that and order some shorts a size or so too big off clearnace? I do this normally so I have more leg room. 

    Board shorts? hum, maybe try the men's section for a cheap pair with elastic and a tie? Or, LET THE PREGNANT BELLY FLY!!! lol, i'm not a tiny thing (160 at 5'6) and i usually wear a 1 piece but I plan on letting the belly free when summer comes around and i'm HUGE!!!

    A bit more frumpy, but exercise shorts. Elastic waists are nice.

    Try linen beach pants (old navy did sell them this summer, as did victorias secret) they are flowy, tie waist so you can adjust size as needed. Have fun!
