So i had a post all ready from about 3 weeks ago so i am just going ahead with a version of that for now and doing a real 6 month update next:
March 2nd - 24 Weeks
With just under 4 months to go Baby Squiggs is popping out of 90% of my
pre-pregnancy clothes, and all my P.P. jeans are officially retired. The hair band
through the buttonhole trick got me through the first 4 months or so, after
that it was just misery for both of us.
And that friends is why I am singing the praises of
Motherhood Maternity and their wonderful selection of maternity
pants. Not only do they carry several styles in ‘Long’ but their definition of
‘Long’ is actually a functional 34” or 34.5” inseam.
Along with their private label brand they also
carry the Jessica Simpson Maternity line which is straight up adorbs. The JS
skinny jeans (in 34.5” inseam) are the best thing I have ever worn. Literally a
perfect fit, I haven’t been able to find regular skinny jeans that fit this
well ever. I am going to be heartbroken when I can’t wear them anymore…in fact
I might wear them forever.

Also on my list of maternity must-haves were a couple pairs
of good flat shoes. After online shopping/obsessing for an entire evening I
decided to spring for a pair of ‘laceless’ converse low-tops, which i practically had to move mountains to get but they were worth the
wait because they are perfect. Cute, comfortable and they have super practical hidden elastic
in the top.

While out on a Best Friends Date with Kate, I was also able to check off some other items on my shopping list including a gorgeous maxi dress, the first of many maternity t-shirts, and some cute printed canvas loafers. All in all a pretty good set of staples to hopefully get me and Squiggs through the rest of our growth spurts.
