In the past few weeks I have personally noticed my belly pooching out. According to all the websites I have been looking at the baby is somewhere between the size of an avocado, plum, peach, and a softball so it makes sense that something is starting to look different. I decided to get on the scale the other day and I have officially entered the next set of 10 pound increment on the scale... eek! I still fit in all my regular clothes but they are getting a little snug. I decided to go to the mall and buy some new pants. Since I don't want to wear maternity clothes just yet so I was going to just buy regular pants in larger sizes. I went to four different stores and tried on literally 20 pairs of pants. They all looked just sloppy. After walking out of Anthropologie nearly in tears, I decided to take the plunge and go to Pea In The Pod just to see what maternity clothes are currently out there.
When I walked into the store, the sales women was super nice. I told her I wanted to try on only pants that don't look like maternity pants. She said she could do that for me and promptly put 12 pairs of pants in the change room. I must say trying on maternity pants is quite the experience - some look absolutely hideous. The one nice thing is that in maternity clothes I am a size small (well for now anyway). I took the plunge and bought my first two pairs of maternity pants which was a big milestone for me - it was hard but inevitable. The next big mileston willbe wearing the pants out in public...
Now if I keep shopping at Pea In The Pod for all of my clothes, I will spend my entire clothes budget (like I really have one) in about two months! I told Geoff that luckily I didn't buy the maternity Citizen's that were nearly $200 and he said that I should save those for a day that I am feeling really crummy. I knew I married that boy for a reason :)
