Alright, I gain weight. It is not bad because it is expected for a pregnant woman to gain weight. Thankfully I am not overweight anymore. First time of myself that a doctor told me I am that overweight. I cannot blame her, in fact I admire the way she cares about my health and the baby growing inside of me. She just care that I would have an abnormal delivery one day sooner. I cannot guarantee that I would have a normal delivery but the thing that I follow precautions and doctor's advises, is one step of a journey to have a normal one. Pray for me that I would have that because it is hard to have a caesarian delivery. Speaking of getting big, after I deliver my precious one soon enough, for sure I would belong to the group of plus size women who will dressed-up
plus size clothes because the body would not directly going down as easy as 1-2-3. Getting back the body I had requires a lot of effort and I should have to expect ups and downs on that journey especially that I plan to breastfeed my baby.
I won't not going to worry about being a plus-size woman because
plus size clothing is available everywhere. And my baby is the center of my attention of that time especially that she will just be a newborn, a very delicate one. Worrying about body measurement is not my thing on that time. Baby comes first. As long as I am healthy and eat the right kind of foods that my baby and I require, am already happy about that. I can guarantee of myself that
plus size clothing for women is not hard for me to search. Being plus-size woman is just temporary for me though. My ultimate goal is getting back my normal body measurement. To those who like being in plus-size, worry-not about where to get plus-size clothes because it is just in front of you.
I bought two pieces of other house or pregnancy clothes. It could also be a nursing ones because it has its buttons good for breastfeeding. It's from Ralph and Lauren and the other one is, ooh sorry I forgot. But surely, its texture is pretty soft, made from cotton. This dresses serves three reasons!
First, it is for pregnancy time. Second, a house clothes. And I could still use this even if I am not pregnant anymore, nursing time. Thirdly, I can use it inside the apartment complex (with leggings) whenever I do laundry and throwing trash. Isn't that cool? *wink* ;-)
A mommy-to-be journey needs a maternity dresses. It may not be on her first quarter but in the later months because a tummy would be big. And only dresses that is especially made for pregnant women is the best for the baby to be comfortable inside and yes, so mommy is also comfortable. Since I am pregnant, I also need maternity dresses like any other pregnant. And so below are just one of those.
The above dresses are my formal wears. Sleeveless ones are meant for a blazer which not a problem for me because aside from that below of that four maternity dresses pictured, I also have several in my closet which is great for such. Happy me that I won't be dying just to find blazers that fits me! Whew! :-)
