pregnant... and already got rid of my "big" clothes...



Recommended Posts

So where does a plus size woman get maternity clothes? I really don't have a budget... I'm still overweight, so maybe I won't show much?

All my friends that I've witnessed be pregnant were normal weight woman, so they were showing within a few months of learning they were pregnant. I've still got excess weight and loose skin too, so I'm thinking I can shop just plain old bigger plus sizes and not need maternity?

What do big ladies wear when they are pregnant? Any post op's that didn't make it to goal weight before getting pregnant have any suggestions on what to expect with my body?

Well, I have no answer to your question as I've already allowed three humans to live for 10 long months in my now retired uterus. But, I want to say, CONGRATULATIONS!

Sears, target, and Kmart carry plus size maternity wear that is affordable. Jeans and a pair of black pants and your good. I have an entire wardrobe if u were close to Ohio. Full panel is most comfortable.

Congratulations! I was pregnant last year before my surgery. I shopped at Target and Motherhood Maternity. I would also suggest the full panel in jeans and other pants.

And I promise you will show, even overweight =). That was a concern for me when I got pregnant. I carry all of my weight in my stomach, so I was afraid I would just look fatter then I already was. I looked pregnant probably around 6 months.

I love Old Navy's maternity section!!

I've gotten a couple things from Ross, Motherhood Maternity, Goodwill and eBay. But my favorite is Old Navy. They have cute options and the prices are awesome!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
