This week, we went back to the doctor, I went back to prenatal yoga, and I got my first maternity clothing.
As you know, I was very anxious about buying maternity clothing, but, last week, I realized that I had no choice, unless I can figure out a way to go to work in my pajamas and/or foldover waist yoga pants.
So, I ordered a few pairs of pants from the Gap and Old Navy (they carry petite lengths!), a few blouses, a dress from Japanese Weekend, and then, some pants and a sweaterdress from Ann Taylor Loft. Internet shopping!
The pants were the first to arrive. I tried them on, and I almost cried.
For joy.
Stretch waistbands are the best thing ever.
Well, maybe that's an overstatement, but it feels true if you're 16 weeks pregnant, and all of a sudden, you have a giant tummy and no waist. I didn't know how uncomfortable my regular pants had gotten until I tried on the maternity pants. And they're not ugly. Win-win.
Now if I could only find a maternity sports bra for prenatal yoga. . .
