I have taken to just not wearing pants at home. I need to find my maternity clothes but #lazy. Also I’m at that awkward stage where I look like I’ve been hitting the donuts. Athleisure has been where it’s at for me.

I have bought a few maternity items so am wearing a mix of those and regular clothes still. Our house is for sale so we have a lot of our stuff in a storage unit. I found one box of maternity clothes in our attic but they are for colder weather so I really need to get over to the unit and find my summer stuff so I don't keep wasting money!

When I stand up I clearly look pregnant, but when I sit my stomach sorta disappears and I just look like I enjoy donuts as well 😂
I have a check up appt tomorrow, no u/s (I'll be 18 weeks Friday). According to my paperwork they do the anatomy scan at 20 weeks, but I'll be out of town that week. I kind of hope theyll bring me back next week to do the AS before I leave so I dont have to wait til 21 weeks. But I doubt they will, and will just do it after at 21 weeks. I'm just impatient and want to see my girl again!

I have been in full maternity stuff for like a month now. I can still do regular shirts if I need to, but why? I have to go get my second p17 shot today. Not looking forward to that.

I've been I'm maternity pants nearly exclusively for like 2 months. And for the last couple weeks, almost exclusively in maternity tops for the most part. Like jnetx, I had a maternity wardrobe already and pulled it out early. Its way more comfy than my regular clothes so why not!

I just bought a few things here and there as I saw them.

I am resisting maternity clothes. People keep telling me to invest in a lot of dresses for summer and lol I don't want to do that either. My work environment is pretty casual and I'm thankful that, because it makes it a little easier, but I don't know how to dress myselffffff. M was born in April so all of the maternity clothes I already have are fall/winter.

M was born in April so all of the maternity clothes I already have are fall/winter. I'm not a big dress person, and even in my last pregnancy I wasnt either despite living in Texas for the summer. So I get that! But I will say at some point, stop resisting and just give in to maternity clothes! Even if it's just a couple pieces or even a size up from your normal size, the comfort factor really will make a difference and you get bigger. I honestly wish I could live in maternity clothes all the time, they are more comfy for whatever reason.

Where are y’all finding clothes? I’m starting over with maternity stuff too (I lost a lot of weight after my last pregnancy so everything I have is too big), and I can’t seem to find much that I actually like.

I’ve been running I into this too. I’m not looking to spend a fortune because this is the last time I’m doing this, but I need some things because of time-of-year differences. I can’t wear rayon/acrylic or even items with a ton of polyester because they just make me sweaty and uncomfortable. I had a few things from my last pregnancy where the seams just rubbed my bump in a painful way. My favorite things at h&m were sold out. ON does have some cute options, but I need to wait for a big sale to feel like I can get what I want 😊

sundog The few things I bought this time around I found on sale at Old Navy and Motherhood. I also found a pair of shorts at a garage sale by pure chance.

Oh I forgot I did buy a dress from pink blush this time too! I've only worn it once though, I think that's why I forgot. I love it and plan to wear it in Hawaii, that's actually the main reason I bought it 😂 their stuff is pretty cute.

Pink blush had 20% off (with a different code) when I ordered a few days ago, too. They must run that deal often.

Congratulations notblanche! I haven't bought any new maternity clothes yet. Mostly living in regular maxi dresses and sundresses at the moment.

I'm all bloat so I feel it's way too early to break out the maternity clothes. Though I did buy some shorts that I wore this week.

I have my AS first thing Tuesday and I’m a ball of nerves. I feel like this pregnancy is going “too smoothly” so I’m being pretty negative about it. Hopefully Tuesday comes fast and I can get it over with.
