Pregnancy sure changes your fashion outlook. Especially now at 33 wks my wardrobe consists basically of two little piles of shirts and shorts and some comfy sleepwear. I think I have worn my hair up everyday for the last 4 months because of the heat as well. These two factors are certainly not going to get me any fashion awards. I think everyone wants to look cute and pregnant, but at some point you outgrow everything and really just care about how comfortable you are in certain things.
Having said all of that I have added one new piece to my wardrobe bringing my whole fashion sense to an all time low.... low... low.... I got myself a new belt to accentuate my waistline. It is called a 'Beautiful Belly Belt'. You wear it to really show off that bump and your new waistline. I fell for the marketing line and just thought - why not wear a belt when you are pregnant. Belts are suppose to show off your womanly figure. It is a little thicker and white for summer. I know it is a bit of fashion risk and I only plan on wearing it if we go out to dinner or somewhere fancy. Take a look below - what do you think?? Quite pretty huh!
OK ok so I tease. I got myself a support belt. I am hopeful that it might help with the right side pain by taking the strain off of my ligaments, muscles etc. It sort of distributes the weight so all of the baby weight isn't just hanging/pulling down in the front. I have worn it a few days now and it is hard to tell if it will help with the right side pain, but at the very least I do feel like it is supporting my belly weight a bit better and can't hurt especially as I continue to grow. It is sort of uncomfortable when I am sitting down so I primarily wear it if I plan on being on my feet a bit. I don't wear it on the outside if I'm in public by the way - my shirts go over it! Don't you wish you had one?
