do you still fit?

I can't fit in any of my pants! Argh! If it's not super loose on my tummy I can't STAND it being there, but even my giant overalls are starting to press, esp when sitting! Driving is a disaster, I barely fit behind the wheel! This kid is going to be a brute! I don't even want to know how big he is until it's all over LOL! How are you managing these days?

I had to buy some more undies this week! And I agree about the pants. If I pull the panel up, the baby seems like she's kicking it off! And if I have it down underneath, my pants sag down and my butt crack shows. I had some nice dresses for summer but it is too cold now. I went to the goodwill to look for a bigger coat but couldn't find anything. I'm just doing a lot of layers and scarves when I go out. Luckily, I still feel really hot (normally I get freezing as soon as fall hits), but I haven't even let my husband turn on the heat, and it's in the 40s.

The car I'm driving now belonged to my grandmother, who specifically bought it for the adjustable gas pedal (she had really short legs or something). Anyway, I'm pretty short, but I can scoot the seat waaaay back and then adjust the gas pedal up so I can reach it. It's seriously the best invention ever for end of pregnancy.

black yoga pants a size bigger than my regular. i wear them so much these days that when i bought my daughter black pants to fit under her halloween costume she got all excited because they're "mama pants".

i can still fit into other pants and skirts but don't like feeling as though i'm strangling the babe every time i sit. none of my shirts cover my belly but that's kinda how i look when pregnant anyway. i have big hoodies that fit, though it's not very cold here yet. i use those to zip up around baby in a sling or wrap.

Yep, I'm strictly wearing yoga pants these days. My belly sits so low that none of my maternity pants fit - and I have all sizes.

I'm wearing yoga pants too! LOL They are the drawstring kind and fit under my belly. I have one pair of jeans I can still stand to wear (and they don't stay up very well) and some short-alls that make me look terrible. That's it. I'm getting rid of the rest of it to make room for baby's stuff. No point in hanging on to it since it doesn't fit and I'm not planning to use it again.

I am getting unbearably large. I get as dressed as I can to work, and then immediately change into PJs the second I'm done working. It's a bummer.

What's more of a bummer is thinking about how much of it's going to stick around for a few months *at least* after baby arrives.

I'm usually in maternity clothes for at least 3-4 months after baby too, which was why I actually invested in some decent stuff for the early days of pregnancy. It sucks to go buy maternity clothes after you have the baby (I had to do it the last time.)

Dude, it's 9 degrees and I'm wearing shorts. That's all I've got that fits and I'm NOT buying more.

Yeah, I have like no pants that fit, or skirts, and my only dress that fits is a light summer sundress. Ugh! I'm as big as a house!

I have one super stretchy skirt, one pair of yoga pants and a pair of cords. My regular sweat pants and yoga pants are too tight! I'm so glad I got everything a size bigger. I seriously feel bigger and more stretched/sore then I did with my twins!

I have 2 pair of sweat pants that are low rise that I still fit in but thats about it. I have more problems with my shirts not covering my belly anymore! I feel a constant breeze on the underside of my belly.

I have one pair of jeans that still fit. Its my shirts that I have a problem with. My belly shows at the very bottom of all of them, and if I go one size up it will be way too huge for me.

pants are good, shirts though...not so much! and i refuse to go buy more shirts when i won't be pregnant much longer. i just hate showing my stretch marks! lol but i'm really not buying new clothes for something that will be over in 4 weeks at most. too bad! lol
