The novelty of maternity pants has worn off. Now, I have never been happy when it came to shopping for pants. I've got a real disability with a waist that is too small for my thighs. Before pregnancy, pants fell into two categories for me: A) too tight in the leg, just right in the waist, or B) just right in the leg, too loose in the waist. Yep. I would spend a lot of time at the mall avoiding pant shopping. I was certain pregnancy would be different since I would be dealing with an anti-waist. How wrong was I?? I don't know that it would matter if my thighs DIDN'T fall into the "more to love" category. These pants would still suck. It seems as though I spend every 3-5 minutes yanking them back up to my boobs, only to have them fall back down again in a matter of seconds. What is with the constant sliding? Women have been wearing pants for years and years now. You'd think someone would learn how to make a pair of maternity pants that don't slide. Actually, I am sure they do. J-Lo had to wear something other than muu muus, right? I'm sure they're $500 a pair and, thus, will never be clinging to these thighs. Oh well. I guess trousers and I were just not made for one another, pregnant or not.

Coming from a non-pregnant woman, I can only image the frustration. I usually avoid pants because I'm just as tall as I am wide and no pants are made for me. Dresses & skirts only. Unless crop pants come back in style, I'll never wear long pants again.
I just walked down the street holding my pants up. Yes, around this week of pregnancy you just don't care what people think anymore. At least it's not corduroy season. My best pair were corduroy and it sounded like a train comin'.
Also, you really just think it's a good day if you don't pee your pants in public. As long as that doesn't happen yet, you're just really happy to wear any old crappy pants around.
