I'd like to share with you what happens when pregnant women run out of clothes that fit.
Firstly, notice the dirty pink fuzzy slippers that smell like egg salad left in the sun. (Old Navy, $12.50)
Next note the sweatpants, circa 1998. They come with fully-elasticized waistband and a drawstring for extra tension. They are splattered with deck stain. (Stolen from ex-boyfriend, Free)
The brilliant white JobDirect.com (2000) tee-shirt is mottled with moth holes in very unsavory locations. Pre-pregnancy this shirt came down to mid-thigh. (Promotional item, Free)
Last, acknowledge the Old Navy fleece athletic full-zip sweatshirt. I bought this with my employee discount way back when. I think I paid something like $6 for it. The only part of me small enough to be zipped in this thing right now is my neck.
I have nothing left but "lounge" pants and sweat pants in my arsenal. My OB spilled the goop they use on your belly to get the doppler to work on my one pair of jeans (not that they fit 2 weeks later). I spilled soup on my cargo pants. I'm sure the neighbors are enjoying my fashion show out to the mailbox very much.

Posted by: Cass at October 26, 2006 09:40 PMDon't feel so bad... I look like that all the time and
1) I am not pregnant
2) a woman
This is why the toga should be making a comeback really soon!
BTW... You are still Sexy Chica (except for the slippers)
I haven't gotten so bad that I've had to raid the linen closet to make a toga, but I have considered going to Wal-Mart and finding myself a muumuu. I'd wear that sucker EVERYWHERE.

Expectant moms get a long free-pass on the fashion front! Just wait til your favorite shirt is stained with regurgitated milk! Oh the joys of parenting!
