Maternity clothes..
By irene2100 » Posted Jul. 31, 2012 2:43pm - 351 views - 2 comments

I got rid of all my maternity clothes from my last two kids..now the realization that I have to go out and actually get more - blah! I am already growing out of all my jeans - SAD :( - and only have a few pairs of work pants that still fit. But everything fits snug..I am so in trouble!! I have gained 8 pounds in 6 weeks - more than a pound a week. I am positive my dr is going to love me this time around. With my first I gained 45, my second was only 32 and now I have no clue what this one will be..My goal is to stay under 45. (I am a big girl 5'9" 218 lbs pre preggo) and I have big babies (9lbs 8oz first one on time, 9lbs 14 oz at 38 weeks for my second) so I am assuming that this one will be the same!! YIKES. I might need a wheel barrel to get me out of the house everyday. lol

Comment from irene2100 » Posted Aug. 2, 2012 11:30am I am tall too and I am so picky about pants being long etc. I should definitely check on there. I am 5 ft 9 inches and it's all legs which is rough. lol Well hopefully I can splurge on some good pants and save money on the tops..phew

Comment from Lucky3 » Posted Jul. 31, 2012 8:16pm I feel your pain! I also got rid of all my maternity clothes from the prior two kids and have to start over. I started my search on Craigslist. People sell that stuff in lots! Only, here's the problem... I'm also tall and I found this lady selling a bunch of really nice stuff which I was very excited about. So I go buy her lot of clothes and while the shirts are cute and perfect...NONE of the pants fit. I'm so bummed. I duobt I'll be able to get my money back. Being tall is NOT easy. Ugh. Best of luck in your search for cute clothes while your body goes haywire!!!
