Something's Gotta Give
At what postnatal point is it pathetic to still be wearing maternity pants? Cause I gotta tell you, three months later I'm still rocking the Old Navy elastic waist, y'all. HOLLER!

I think you're okay for now. However, if you're wearing pants with a stretch panel when Beezus hits 6th grade, we're going to have to talk. But then again, this is coming from a girl whose first order of business after work is taking off her pants.
With 3 days to my due date - I can't imagine that I will EVER wear a belt again. I LOVE my stretch-o pants and plan to wear them for life. Now...if they just made them in LONG! Thank goodness it is warm here in VA so I can pretend they are are capri style ;o) Work it girl....
There were two reasons I stopped wearing maternity pants:
1) You got pregnant and needed some pants.
2) I discovered "yoga pants" which are basically slim fit maternity pants.
Well I'm six months postpartum and I still really like to wear my pink maternity sweater and the maternity T-shirt I got that says "Who's Your Daddy." You spend all that money on clothes - you might as well wear them longer than 9 months.
Cool it works..
I never liked maternity pants, but always wore plus sizes ie. 1x, 2x, 3X, aaarrrgh!
But i like flowy clothes anyway and ones that stretch and hug in the "right places", like a kids flex-fit stretchy band-aid...
And... I might ask "what's that bit about "nursing will take the wait right off!" Kind of an ironic theory dont cha' think when you get more hungry from feeding a child!?
Holler!
I don't know why, but SNL skit came to mind while reading this post...
Go on with your bad elastic waistbanded self!
Oh my gosh! Mom pants! Never!! I'll wear sweats and stretchies and skirts the rest of my life instead...
Typo in last post: I meant "weight" instead of "wait"
Ally- girl
A "hip-Mama", ain't catchin' me in no Mom pants...
