My manager is having a baby boy around Christmas, and is going on maternity leave next month. I want to start brainstorming of ideas of what to get her. I know I want to get her a hat and baby cardigan from American Apparel, since the baby will be born in winter. I know you’re not supposed to give clothes so I want to get something extra (useful). Help! Her’s is the first baby shower I’ve had to attend!

I love ELF and i buy their makeup for 1, 2, 3, or 4 dollars each. I want to know if there’s a website that sells clothing super cheap like that, with everything around 5 or 6 dollars. I shop juniors, too, so it’d be great if the website wasn’t for the elderly or maternity. Thanks,

I am 10 weeks and my breasts are already very tender and sore and starting to grow. My doctor suggested I go and get a good support maternity bra but I am having lots of trouble finding one. My cup size is F and I am already falling out of that so I will need at least a G cup or bigger.

Can someone point me in the right direction to find a good, supportive maternity bra?

I am only 1 month pregnant but I gained some weight before I got pregnant (ok – bad i know) and most of my clothes pretty much don’t fit me now. So once I gain a few baby pounds that its, I’m done. Also, I swear, my breats went up at least a cup size, and my bras dont fit and hurt. Would the maternity clotes grow with me if I buy them next month?

I hate it when that happens. Sometimes I come across this cool shirt, but it’s a maternity top. Has that happened to anyone?

My torso barely is there but I do have wide hips. I’m basically 7 months pregnant and still not showing heavily, but I gained 50lbs. I’ve gone from 125 to 175 and from a size 5 to a maternity size Med to large. Am I just listening too much to random strangers? My family says I’m really getting big but other people can’t tell I’m this close to my 3rd trimester. (I’m one week away)
I also heard that women with smaller torsos show faster, (I actually started showing around 9 or 10 weeks) and was wondering if back, butt and leg pain was worse with us. Anyone who has a small torso I’d love to hear what you’ve gone through.
I barely eat- just enough to keep my blood sugar from dropping. Plus I don’t look it.
My first dr appointment I was 145lbs, then I went to 146 and kept gaining one pound a month for the first few months now I jumped to 156, 160 and then 170 and I didn’t really eat much. I gained all that weight in the 6th month. (I was 125 way before I got pregnant. By the time I was, I was 140. Technically according to doctors I only gained 30. I just feel heavier. All my tests came back saying she’s healthy and is a good size, and I’m not carrying all that extra weight in my waist or my back so how could I not show? Or am I just used to seeing the gradual weight gain where I see myself every day so I’m not noticing?
(Sorry for the jumbled words, I’m really tired)

I just got a BFP and I am in a wedding in 6 months, which would make me 7 months for the wedding. I am a size 10 now, what size dress should I order, I think there is a maternity option. My first pregnancy. Thanks for any help or ideas.

I’m visiting Toronto and Tennessee in early March, and I’ll be 6 months pregnant. I’m on baby #2 so my bump is already very noticeable. Anyway, I know it’ll be COLD!! The UK maternity retailers are useless, selling flimsy fashion items and marketing their spring/summer catalogue already. What do you lovely ladies wear to keep out the cold AND stay looking gorgeous? My daughter was a summer baby, so all my maternity stuff is for hot weather. If I don’t get sorted soon I’ll be making the trip in a floaty skirt and sandals!!

Would love to hear what stores are your choice for maternity wear – then I can order stuff online!

Thanks

Clarabelle

So I’m probably a HUGE baby but I’m pretty sure I’m dying the last few days. I’m 33 weeks and 4 days pregnant today and my hips and pelvis are killing me!!! This is my third child and I’ve never experienced this before. It’s like someone kicked me in my privates. It hurts to walk, it hurts to lay down, it hurts to sit. Also new the last couple of days if I walk more than from one end of my house to the next I start having contraction. I’m sure they’re just the fake contractions, because they go away as soon as I’m able to sit down again, but man they hurt just as bad as real labor. The last thing that is killing me is that I’m not really able to stand up straight at this point. It feels like all of the muscles in my lower abdomen are so far stretched that I don’t have the ability to stand up straight without tearing every last one of them. I just want to know if anyone else has been feeling this way and that it’s normal. If it’s not I’ll make a call to my OB but I hate to do that if it’s not necessary.

I have been using a maternity belt, it doesn’t do any good and I’ve only gained 5 pounds this entire pregnancy so I don’t know that any of this is weight gain. Perhaps just weight distribution?

My husband and I are doing maternity pictures tomorrow outside. I am going to take a few outfits but was wondering if anyone had any good suggestions of what we should wear.

Thanks in advance

So, I’m 7 months pregnant with our first child. Before I was pregnant, I had a pretty perfect body. 5’6" 120 pounds, 34C. Well, now that I’m preggo…my husband hates my body. It really hurts my feelings. The other day he was looking at old pics and said.."wow you used to be hot." GRRRR!!!! I was like what do you mean "used to be?" He said well, you still are, you’re just pregnant.
And then he said he gave me a compliment, and why was I being so Bit**y?

Then, today, I had on a pair of jeans. I asked if I looked ok for work. He said, "Where did you get those pants?" I said, "your sister"…they aren’t maternity…they’re size 4, editor jeans (kinda wide leg baggy.)

Anyways, he said, "oh, I’m use to you wearing tight skinny jeans…I said, "I know, but I can’t get those up over up hips…I tried." They’re a size 26 waist, with no give in them.

So, I’m really sensitive about all this. I can’t help it that I’m gaining weight…I incubating a baby! OUR baby. He hates how large my boobs have grown, they are now a 34ddd, huuuuge I know. He hates my round stomach. He won’t touch me in any way.

What do I do?

How do I deal?

All I want to do is cry…

Oh, and I have a photographer begging me to do preggo pics…but it’s like I don’t even want to now, bc I won’t feel beautiful when being photographed.

Please help advise me on what to do.

I just recently found out I wear a size 34D a few weeks ago but I haven’t found any cute bras in my size for cheap. The best I’ve found is at VS for and up I bought a black bra from walmart for (after searching the WHOLE store I found 2 bras in my size that weren’t sports bras) All the cheap bras I’ve found in my size are ugly. They sell a few at JC Penney but they’re all either maternity or something an old woman would wear. I really want some cute bras. I love balconette bras but I haven’t been able to find any in my size help on stores please?
American Eagle bras are nice but still and even with that 25% off I’m not spending on only two bras
