I went shopping after work and dropped nearly $500 on clothes (ack, I know! but necessary) and I'm so glad I did. I wore a new pair of mat pants and shirt to dinner tonight, and it was wonderful. I felt great, and I think I actually looked skinnier without the muffin top that was happening with my other pants.
I even bought a dress for the wedding we're going to in 2 weeks. It shows off my best assets (the girls) and is really flattering. I certainly don't fill out the belly that much, but it's pleated in the front, so it doesn't look like I'm wearing a maternity dress, per se.
And I bought 3 new bras at la Senza that are the most comfortable things ever - and I had to go up in band size, which meant the cup was a little bigger too. Whatever, they're comfortable.
AND I bought some maternity underwear, because my old favourite boy-cut style was starting to roll under my gut and they aren't 100% cotton, so they were getting really hot. So, I now am the sort of proud owner of under-belly bikinis, and under-belly thongs. Nice.
I'm so glad I finally told work, and now I can be comfortable!
