I bit the bullet and purchased a pair of lululemon Align shorts in the 6” length. They are highwasted, hit my mid thigh (I have long legs) like a “biker short” style & Extremely comfy! I did size up because they were sold out of the size I would normally go for, I don’t regret it at all. Definitely worth the investment, I’m sure I will get great use out of them when the weather permits!
PSA: I ordered a gap modal fabric maternity robe and it’s so comfy! It was on super duper sale and actually came pretty quickly. I got the black. I have a feeling I’m going to live in this the next few months and probably postpartum too.
Does anyone have experience with Posh Peanut. They have a big sale over the weekend. And some of their stuff looks pretty cute - looking at robes right now.
I got my belly bands in the mail last weekend and I finally put one on with a pair of pre-pregnancy jeans to see if they'll work as intended.. and I am so happy. My pants are staying up. My jeans aren't zipped in the slightest but it looks alright and I'm just happy to be wearing my *real* pants. It feels better than maternity pants even with the band. So today I'm wearing some pre-pregnancy but post 70 pound weight loss jeans, and one of my pre weight loss t-shirts and I just actually feel cute and human. I'm just celebrating.
@WishesSheCouldCook i just saw that earlier today and I think I am going to get one of these nice robes they have on sale. Thanks for reminding me. Their stuff is really cute and looks nice.
@strawberryfields82 @WishesSheCouldCook does anyone know the length on their robes? I wanted something a bit past the knee, like mid calf is really ideal, since I felt like everything was a bit short at the hospital and borderline indecent lol if it hits at the knee, it's not really going to make me feel covered up, kwim?
I’ve been eyeing their robes as well, the description and design seem ideal for a growing bump so it doesn’t “ride up” in the front. I just got a robe before pregnancy, it hits mid thigh but now I have a bump I feel like I’m not going to have much coverage in the front soon with it riding up lol. Here’s a screenshot of the posh peanut robe details.
I couldn’t find anything with actual measurements.
Thank you so much! @charhar0820 I can't remember what I found on Amazon, but I will double check the length on that listing too. I have a super cute pink and white stripe robe that's on the shorter side, and a couple super long plush ones, so really it's that longer length, lighter weight that I'm going to need. :/. So hard to find tho!
@BusinessWife The one I ordered on Etsy looks longer based on the pictures, like falling just below the knee. The seller was pretty quick to respond... I just sent her a message. They also sell matching nightgowns that hit mid-calf and I bought one of those too. I just ordered today so won't be in for a bit.

If anyone is looking for a comfy, casual maxi dress, this just arrived today from Target. I’m pretty excited because I’ve been wanted to buy another maxi dress but they are such a pain to breastfeed in and it seemed silly to buy anything not BF friendly. This one is maternity/nursing though! And such a deal
I have to recommend this maternity/nursing nightgown I bought from Kindred Bravely. It looks like it's still on sale. I finally wore it last night and it is so so comfy. It washed fairly well too. I can't tell if it shrunk when I washed it or I've just gotten bigger since it arrived (this is probably more likely), but I don't think it will still fit me come August when I'm 9 months pregnant, but I think it will do just fine for postpartum and since it looks more like a dress than a nightgown I plan to wear it home from the hospital.
I’ve been looking for a simple jersey style dress. A favourite boutique of mine has an outfit of the week sale and part of it just so happened to be what I was looking for! 😍

It comes with the dress and kimono, they have one other option which is a black dress.
