Rant of the Day
This whole being prego is totally a different experience than the last time I was prego.
Tell me if this is messed up or not. . . .
The day after Thanksgiving, Old Navy had a sale on jeans – $15/pair. So I ventured out with all the crazy crowds and looked at pants. Here’s the really screwed up part . . . I’m a size 6 at Old Navy (I won’t even rant about how woman sizes vary from store to store) So I figured I’d be a size 6 in maternity pants. NOT THE CASE!!! Too big!!! Well okay, lets try a size 4. A little room in the thighs and the trunk area. Go back and get a size 2 and try them on. . . WHAT THE HELLS BELL!! I fit in a size 2 perfectly. What are they trying to do to me? I mean, are they trying to boost my self esteem or something?
I didn’t buy them. . . .
But with the recent developments, meaning my stomach is popping out. I need more pants to wear!!! I can’t do what I did last time when I was prego with the boy. I can’t wear size 32 men’s jeans. I need to look a little more professional and not gangster.
I finally broke down and bought some pants at the Target last night.
What’s the deal with maternity clothes being by the plus sizes!!!
What’s the deal with maternity clothes being so dang expensive!!!!!
do you realise that the average american preggie puts on almost 50 pounds? that means that you could go back for the size 4 in 2 months, then go back for that size 6 2 months after that and maybe even venture into the size 8 before you pop.
TELL me about it!
And the shirts I bought when I first started to pop don’t really cover the belly so much anymore, but I’m so close to delivering it’s not worth it to buy any more, so I have an inch of the tummy panel showing below my shirt, and I don’t even give a crap anymore.
