Maternity wear


About a week ago I decided that it was time to buy maternity pants. My already snug pants and some that aren't so snug, feel quite uncomfortable to me now. I wore them for only a short time til I'd start to feel some discomfort.

So it was time, I wanted to start small and just get my feet wet a little, I went to test it out at target. Buying maternity clothes is a new venture for me. At first when I was able to fit into my pants I thought that I wouldn't have to buy maternity pants, tops of course. Pants I thought I could get away with wearing cool workout clothes. A nice pair of comfortable sweat pants or spring dresses throughout my pregnancy, not a big deal. Wearing sweats and dresses all the time isn't practical. Do I really want to wear sweats all the time? No. I'm sure that I'd want to wear what I always wore and be able to dress nice when I want to.
I'll enjoy wearing clothes that will complement my new pregnant body.

Belly bands are another thing. Belly bands are for jeans that don't fit anymore so a belly band is put on to cover the fact that your pants are unbuttoned and unzipped??? That doesn't seem to be appealing, I'll just buy the maternity pants. I know that it's suppose to support your belly as it grows. I'll find out when I get a enormous belly. I guess these are some of the thoughts I've had about pregnancy clothes, something I know nothing about. You live and you learn, that's the fun part.
