Anyone have recommendations on shorts to wear under skirts / dresses (obviously that would work with a pregnant belly)? I like the Jockey slip shorts. They have different lengths, colors, and material options (cooling, wicking, etc.). www.jockey.com/catalog?department=women&category=underwear&style=slipshort#/page=1I'm wearing my pre-pregnancy ones now and I just let the top part sit under my belly. Still comfortable and they don't feel like they are falling down or moving around, but still light and comfortable for summer. I don't take much convincing. I'm going to try them! Thanks! |

I'm gonna be all about Lularoe during this pregnancy. The perfect Ts and Carlys are awesome for a growing belly and the leggings are super comfy. I still have a bunch of maternity clothes from Target, Old Navy, Moherhood Maternity, and other places that i've saved from previous pregnancies so i'll use those too.

I wish they were in stores somewhere so I could try them on... pretty sure I'm between sizes Edit: found a store at the outlet mall on the other side of town... I'll have to make a trip if I find a cute maternity dress |

I got mine at Target. I believe Hannes makes a similar product as well. |

Yeah, i do the Jockey Skimmies like blackmamba. They're not Spanx, so not super tight, but help with the chub rub. I may end up having to size up as I don't like where the current size is hitting my belly. |

I had packed mine up to be put away for the year, but now I'll pull them back out! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I've given up on the leggings already - they're not comfy on my belly. And after wearing only Carlys and leggings the first 14w, I need to be done! I'm holding on to Carly, Julia, Azure, Irma, and Maxi for the duration. The Randy is actually working well with a bump, too, so maybe I'll keep some of those out, too.

rachydc I just googled maternity rompers. Pretty sure I couldn't pull this look off.  ETA- Also, having to pee all the time, this would be the worst. lol LOL! I was actually going try on a pair of rompers I had they're not maternity but is of a crepe/stretchy material but didn't dawn on me about bathroom antics. Now I won't bother haha! SaveSave |

thechickencoop, I had the opposite with ON jeans, I ordered a pair of their skinny jeans and it fits really really well. Their normal RS skinnies fit me well which was why I decided to try and lucked out. Also this time I got my normal size in maternity instead of 1 size larger which I did the last time and pants kept on slipping - very annoying.

Will be following since I am trying to not buy any maternity clothes but it's getting warmer and I really only have 1 bermuda shorts I can wear to work, like 4 tops for work, a couple of maxi dresses ( they're non maternity but works! so hallelujah to knit fabric ), 1 swing skirt. i suppose that's a full week of wardrobe though. If anyone is looking for nicer maternity options for weddings or occasions, Nordstrom has a decent selection - I have a Maternal America wrap dress - really nice quality but it's LS and too hot for summer wear. Also check out www.figure8maternity.com/I got a couple of tops from them before - I believe Maternal America and Ingrid and Isabel but alas not summer appropriate but I can wear them PP and they're wrapped style tops - will be great for nursing. They're both good quality and got compliments a few weeks ago from strangers - it was cold and snowing here still a few weeks ago! |

I've given up on maternity wear. I'm just wearing all LuLaRoe and Target maxi skirts. I do need a pair of jean shorts but haven't found any yet.

LLR leggings are just not comfy on my belly  The shirts and skirts work though. I wear scrubs everyday so I just bought 3 pairs of maternity scrub pants and my current ones are getting tight. I am buying shirts here and there as I find things I like. Just placed an Old Navy order for shorts, but they were sold out of the denim ones I wanted. |

August Blooms, seventythree, if I find a cute one I might just get it! I love rompers but don't like the one gamergirl found. Actually I might got fish mine out later tonight and see if I can squeeze into it lol! I've managed to get away with wearing my normal maxi dresses and maxi skirt last time and a couple of shift dresses up to 2nd tri. There is an overall shorty I think I saw on H&M that was cute though - that might be much easier to get out of in a hurry.

The shirts and skirts work though.
