Confession Friday

What do you need to get off your chest?

I went home last night and cleaned out my fridge after yesterday's discussion. My actual confession is that I open one bowl, looked in and thought about taking a picture so I could have a "what's in my bowl" QOTD today.

I had a very vivid sex dream the other night and H wasn't in it. It was so real that I woke up breathing heavy. I feel guilty and like I cheated.

I literally counted the hours down when the in-laws were in town last weekend.  So rough.

I confess that I haven't cleaned my apartment since we went under contract with the house. H has cleaned and it makes me feel like a bad wife.

@sjs1013 don't feel like a bad wife - you are also caring for a tiny human!

I unbutton my pants in the bathroom at work before I have properly secured the stall door. 

My office building is more than half empty and 90% of the time, I'm in there alone. If that is the case, I will begin my unbuttoning well before I am safely hidden.

I've been totally unbuttoning my pants while sitting at my desk. I really need to invest in some Bella Bands.

@mrshall1027, just get maternity pants!  I wish I would have started wearing them sooner.  They aren't cheap so the sooner you wear them the more likely you are to get your money's worth out of them.

I confess that I'm getting nothing done today.  The closer I get to my due date the less I care.  So happy I get to stay home and do daycare!
I also confess that I've been really badly procrastinating my daycare classes.  I think I'm just scared to do them by myself.  I need a class buddy.

Or, if you can possibly hold out, wait until Black Friday.  I got all of my maternity clothes on BF for at least 50% off. But, I also had other clothes that still fit. And I hated maternity pants with a fiery passion.

I confess that I am really slacking at getting my Halloween costume done. Doesn't help that I can't find half the pieces I need unless I want to pay full price. Ugh.

I had two sex dreams and orgasms in my sleep when I was pregnant. Scared the crap out of me! Don't feel guilty! It happens.

Oh and I was wearing a belly band from about week 7 on because I was embarrassed how often my pants were unbuttoned at work!

@mrshall1027‌ the Bella Band is wonderful. I got the Target ones and they were fantastic. I wore it for about a month after I got maternity pants because I liked my regular pants better. I wore my Bella Band for about 6-8 weeks, until about 15 weeks.

@WillyH19‌ thank you for the encouragement!

I might be the only one that loves maternity pants.  I don't want to go back to normal pants ever!  Well, maternity leggings...

Nope, I LOVE LOVE LOVE maternity pants.  I hated the bella bands.  They rolled on me, which defeated the purpose.  I will go straight to maternity jeans upon the BFP next time.  

I did use the bella bands as tank tops for low cut tops, because the thought of another piece of clothing going on my belly made me ragey.  Now my maternity pants fall off when I walk, and my reg jeans hurt my incision, I've been wearing the belly bands over my maternity pants to help keep them up.  May not be the purposes of the bands, but I'm getting use out them!

Honestly I have a 10-part plan for world peace and step 1 is everyone wears maternity pants.  Seriously how great would life be if all pants were stretchy?  You're welcome, world.

I cried when I put my maternity pants away. Bye bye stretchy waistbands!


I've been wearing the same shirt to bed for the last 3 nights. It has baby puke on it and idgaf.

A world without muffin tops... I'm in!

So, I was looking into maternity pants this weekend and I'm wondering what kind you all got.  I'm leaning towards the full panel ones instead of the under belly ones, but I'm wondering if I'd be able to wear those now or if I'd have to wait until I got bigger.

goatlady12

I like the full panel now I didn't have them early on so I'm not sure.  I borrowed my sister's clothes until she got pregnant, she likes the below the belly kind.  It was nice early on, but now I feel like the below the belly stuff just rubs on the bottom of the bump all day.  It gets uncomfortable.

Another one here who loved maternity pants! 

@mrshall1027 I had a couple in the beginning I got from Target with just the band but eventually went to full panel. You can always fold them down and this way you dont need to spend $ on pants and a bella band. I got them at motherhood maternity when they had a buy one get one sale and old navy online. 

After I had the baby they were good for holding in the giggle that was no longer a baby.
