Baby Shower What to Wear?



Recommended Posts

So I'm not girly girl at all and I've never worn a dress lol I do not own heals. What in the world am I suppose to wear for my baby shower? My shower is the last Sunday of this month and I know I want to be comfy and not feel like everyone's staring at me but then if I wear something that's me I think I'll look odd. I'm a jeans and shirt converse type of girl. So I thought mate some black jeans a pink sweater and flats. Then I think it will look weird. I'm Hispanic and these folks are more into a dressy pregnoid celebration. Help! I need some help lol

Baby doll blouse with gauchos or any dressy pants. I had to wear flip flops because my ankles were so swollen, but at least they were dressy type. I'm Latina too and my family ALWAYS gets dressed up.

That's what I was telling my sister who's throwing it for me and she said it was okay to do black pants and a dressy shirt. I hope I can find something nice band not too dressy

As long as your comfortable that's all that matters. I was actually able to find a nice outfit in motherhood for plus size. That was also 5 years ago lol. Good luck

For my shower I wore black stretch capris and a flowy top, with black flats. Remember you are the mom to be, and your comfort is important. I found some beautiful outfits for my niece that is expecting at JC Penny, also Target carries some really nice maternity stuff. Remember that you will be in front of the group, and if you are not comfortable in your clothes it will show. Just wear something that looks nice, but also makes you feel like yourself. Congrats on the baby 2 be.

Awe thanks :) I decided to go look around today and I saw two nice shirts at motherhood but my problem area is my boobage. Shirts fit nicely around my belly a lot of extra space but my boobs literally popped open the shirt lol so I decided to go online and check out torrid. I found a very nice me type of blouse. I'll wear some black jeans n flats. Thanks for the help :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
