During the whole pregnancy, from say, day 7 after conception and until day of birth I was throwing up. Therefore not much eating. I ended up weighing approx. 2 kg more than at the beginning of the pregnancy because I had lost so much weight in the first three months (that was the worst of the morning-day-evening sickness). <BR/>So anyway, I never got to wear maternity clothes. Snif. Pregnancy ripoff. :'( S'not fair.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05173062793810923147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20957385.post-1142398448538648002006-03-14T20:54:00.000-08:002006-03-14T20:54:00.000-08:00I still wear mine too.

But as another poster mentioned, there are so many cute summery shirts out now that are longish and flowy.

My secret is: my husband calls my panties: parachute panties. It's so embarassing. Really kills the romance, ya' know. NOTE: these are NOT even the white cotton type, but Karen Nereburg? or something with flowers. *sigh*Mom on the Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08399432097547451366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20957385.post-1142370908515363882006-03-14T13:15:00.000-08:002006-03-14T13:15:00.000-08:00Spanx.

Just this year I got tired of wearing Boring Big Girl clothes, and am trying to keep up a nicer image. Can you believe I found seven7 jeans at Target for only $40, and they FIT??? I NEVER spend much money on my clothes, but I absolutely had to have that pair of pants. I feel so "cool" wearing them!<BR/><BR/>On another, more practical note, I find decent priced, good length T-shirts, polos, etc. at www.lanebryantcatalog.com . I don't like all of their stuff, but they have some good basics. <BR/><BR/>That said, I am still working to get healthier, loose weight. But it took years to gain, it's going to take a little while to come off.

I can't stand how the prevalence of summer clothes are sleeveless items or have very short cap sleeves. Does not work for moms that might have a little flab under the arms. <BR/><BR/>With respect to non-clothing items, my secret in the evening is a glass of mommy-juice (red wine) to make me feel like an adult.

And sweaters with long sleeves and full length pants. It seems threquarter length pants and sleves are all you can find in the stores. I live in Canada. It is cold here in winter. I want a sweater to cover my arms.
