Thread: RQOTD - Thursday May 3

How are you and clothes going? Are you still fitting into your pre pregnancy clothes just fine? Are you using a belly band to keep unbuttoned pants up? Or are you in maternity clothes full time?

I can't fit any of my pre pregnancy pants! I'm in maternity bottoms full time. I've already run across about 10 shirts I can't wear over my belly anymore, though I choose to mostly wear maternity tank tops to cover up the maternity band on my pants. I think long sundress shopping is in order soon because that will allow me to still get on the floor with DS without embarrassment and be cool this summer.

Most of my work pants still fit but theyre off the minute I get home. My Jeans are definitely too tight so I'm in maternity Jeans with a few looser shirts and the occasional maternity shirt that doesn't look too maternity-like.

I'm in maternity full time now. I did wear non-maternity to my daughter's first communion over the weekend, but was pretty uncomfortable by then end!

I'm in that annoying in-between phase. I can button my jeans but it's uncomfortable now. If I wear mat pants, I am constantly hiking them up. I have a belly band thing, but find that I am always readjusting it-same as mat pants. I've also noticed my shirts are starting to look short on me so I'll be breaking out my mat tops this weekend for sure.

From the beginning I have had to wear loose fitting pants (loving my gouchos) or a belly band. I have now graduated to either the gouchos or maternity pants full time. The belly band just isnt cutting it. I am finding that many of my shirts are just too tight across the chest, as well as around my belly.... but more noticeably across m chest. I found a pair of short overalls at a garage sale last week and am loving them today. I Definitely have room to grow, so that makes me excited. I have also found some more pants, as well as a couple more shirts, while garage sailing. Gotta say, I am still kicking myself for selling or giving away my maternity clothes after DD. I am just thankful that I have been able to find things at garage sales, or have friends that have lent me stuff

Im in my same pants but all of the bigger sized ones and put the smaller sized ones away (im always in between two sizes), I did use the bella band one day to fit into smaller ones that I wanted to wear.. so so far so good..
Shirts however I'm already packing up bcuz they dont fit- and I went shopping and just bought a bunch of large tanks that would be loose and more flowy to kind of try and hide the belly a little from people i dont want to know about it... a lot of my shirts still fit- they're just super tight in the stomach so it makes it more obvious looking. can't wait for the awkward period to be over... right now i feel like people who know me and know im preg tell me my belly looks big and preggo already- yet ppl i havent told kinda glance at it and i feel like they just think im getting fat haha or dont want to come out and ask.. hahaha.. oh the joys!!

In maternity pants full time. I used a bella band for a bit but it kept scootching up and bugged me. I still wear a lot of my pre preg tees (at least the longer ones) and have also gotten out my maternity tops. I have a few maxi dresses that aren't maternity but they still fit and are SO comfortable!

I'm still fitting fine, but will need to find my maternity stuff soon.

I still fit 90% of my non maternity clothes, but a couple pair of jeans are getting a little uncomfortable! Shirts still fit too.

I'm soooo grateful for my best friend. She just had her baby in December, so she sent me a big box of maternity two weeks ago. I had given her most of my maternity from DS, but she had added a ton more clothes. I wore the exact same stuff every single week, she didn't!
