for maternity clothes was this weekend. And let me tell ya, my experience was AWESOME! Hubby and I decided it was time to go get me my first maternity outfit. I'm squeezing into my pants now. And now I just look fat because they dig into my belly and my waist. Lately, I live in my pj's or workout clothes. LOL Because they're stretchy ya know? But that's not cute to wear when your hubby wants to take you out to eat a nice dinner! LOL I will admit I have dressed in my workout clothes when we went out for dinner but I really had no other choice. haha! It's all good... I could care less what people think. I got a baby in the oven... =)
Anyway... we decided to go to this one store called, "Destination Maternity". We'd seen it along the freeway for a long time. Even before I WAS pregnant and I always thought, "I wonder what that is? pfffrrrrttt... I'll probably never get to shop there... " And look at me now! God blessed us and that was the place we went to shopping for maternity clothes. When we first got there, I had to go Peeeee really baddddddddd... Pregnant ladies have to pee about 100 times a day! haha. Ok, well maybe not that many times but it sure feels like it! I told my Hubby, "They HAVE to have bathrooms in there! it's a store for pregnant women! I'd be shocked if they don't!" And as soon as we walked in, this girl working there walked to the door to greet us and offered us something to drink. "Water or Juice?", she asked. LOL I was shocked! WOW. That's a first! When do you walk into a store and they ask you if you want something to drink!? haha. I kindly refused but asked if they had any restrooms there. She smiled and led me to them. *sigh* What a relief that was! I emptied my bladder and by the time I got out, hubby had a few outfits picked out for me already! hahaha. That was cute... I tried on almost all his choices. He knows me too well but a few I knew wouldn't fit right.
I ended up taking an outfit that he picked out. I love it! It's some comfy jeans which I can wear as I get farther along and I get a bigger belly and a cute summery, white tank top. He also found a little calendar type book for me to keep track of my doctor's appointment stuff, like ultrasounds, tests, etc. Very cute! We took that too. The store is like disney world for pregnant ladies. They offer free classes too to pregnant couples. We might have to look into that. They looked interesting. They have everything from maternity clothers, undergarments, sleepwear, lotions, books and even nutrition bars! All specifically made for women! I bought a nutrition bar called, "Belly Bar". Delicious! We found them online and plan to buy me a box to snack on. =)
Anyway... it was awesome shopping for maternity clothes for the first time. I didn't realize how expensive maternity
clothes were but I also didn't realize how cute maternity clothes CAN be. They had bathing suits there too. Once out base pool opens up, I'll have to go buy me one! *hehehe* After shopping there, we headed to the big mall to get some stuff at bath & body works... Hubby needed some new running shoes and I had run out of my favorite perfume so we stopped at Sephora to get a bottle. OMG... I love this perfume... smells just like baby... =)
