oh im sorry did my giant belly offend you?


back to fashion for a moment. recently a women (older) complained after seeing me that "a pregnant woman shouldn't dress like that".... hmmm i guess she felt i needed to be in a tent or a moo-moo that had baby blocks on the front or teddy bears... really? i become pregnant and all fashion sense is lost? no way! pregnant celebs have opened the door for us, they no longer hide their bumps in shame but wear stunning well fitted couture gowns to show off their little miracle. the dress i was wearing at the time was not "revealing", the length was acceptable, the "girls" were poking out, it just had some roaching around the tummy, gasp!! theres a baby in there, run hide it from the world! ladies I'm 9 months pregnant, I'm huge! but i will wear this big belly proud! stay f!erce mamas!

embracing the belly


why should a pregnant woman be ashamed of her belly and hide it under a tent or a moo-moo? show it off ladies! its beautiful! you are creating life in there why not show it to the world. its a new day in pregnancy fashion. rather than shapeless tops find tops that have side roaching or fit snug around the bump. this will help you to actually look smaller. also if its a spring/summer pregnancy, maxi dresses and empire waist sundresses are very flattering. for fall winter pregnancies go for leggings with long fitted sweater tops, allow the clothing to hug the body showing off your amazing curves. you also don't have to feel trapped into buying only maternity clothes, through my pregnancy I've mainly just bought XL sizes of normal clothes (saves $$, maternity wear is expensive). i got a few pairs of maternity pants for the support band and i also have a belly band to wear over my unzipped pre-preggo pants. just because you feel as big as a house doesn't mean you have to look like it!! stay f!erce mamas!
