In the first flush of pregnancy, many would-be moms quickly buy their
pregnancy clothes and then regret it at leisure. Most first timers are
unaware that while their body undergoes many changes, their lifestyle
also changes.
And with it, their shopping habits must also compulsorily change.
Consider this scenario – when you were a gangly teen, nothing fit well.
In your twenties, everything was absolutely a perfect fit. You were
small size then, now with a huge belly, you must buy extra large
clothes. Doesn’t your ego take a beating?
That aside, there was a time when you could just look at a top and
you might know it will fit you. When you are pregnant, avoid such snappy
purchases. Try on the clothes. Wear them for as long as you can. Even
if something feels slightly itchy or tight, lose those clothes
immediately.
Your skin becomes twice as sensitive and if you wear those clothes
for a longer period of time then a small itch might become an ugly rash
and a fitting top might just squeeze the breath out of you. So don’t
ever think of buying a pregnancy dress without trying it on first.
Big is good, bigger is best. Aim to buy a size that’s at least a
couple of sizes bigger than you are currently. Just accept the fact
that you will grow and grow and your clothes also have to keep up with
your increasing dimensions.
So change your shopping habits temporarily when buying your pregnancy dresses.
