Treating Myself

I decided to go shopping today. My main goal was to buy some new bras.

Yes, you might remember I bought some about 1 month ago. I'm convinced I am becoming a one woman dairy farm.

Before pregnancy, I was a 38C. I jumped up to a 38D and those started getting tight.

I decided to go to a local department store, Kohl's (not sure if they are countrywide?) because I really don't want to spend a lot of money on something that I will no longer need in about 8 months (at least, I hope not?).

I walked into the lingerie department and went to the "Full Figured" rack. Dear God, is that me now? Clearly, the D cups weren't working anymore so I had no choice.

I had to go for the Big Momma Double D's. I picked it up off the rack and seriously started laughing. There is no way in HELL that is going to fit me. I could wear the cup as a hat!

I grabbed a 38DD and a 40DD and went into the fitting room.

Laaaaaaaaaaa!

We have found comfort! What a difference a good fitting bra makes!

I can't believe I've gone up 2 inches and 2 cup sizes. I know one thing for sure... these babies aren't going to starve!

Honk! Honk! Milk truck, comin' through!

With the bras out of the way, I was making my way to the counter and came across a little maternity department. Who knew?

They had about 5 racks of clothes and I had a good time! I ended up finding a pair of white capris, knit yoga shorts and 4 tops. I got all of that plus the 2 boulder-holders for $165. I didn't think that was too bad?

Since I haven't posted one in a few weeks, here's a 16 1/2 week belly pic. Note the new bra...

Your breasts don't look big at all-- but I believe you, if you say so :o).

Great job on treating yourself. I must admit I figured there were more pieces for the price lol--but what do I know.

You look great, I hope everything else is well.
All the best,
Anna

Good job treating yourself :-) Comfort is key!! I love Kohls! I went to their maternity section in December, but they didn't have a large selection, so I shopped the clearance rack and got a summer dress for $5 and an adorable shirt for $3! I'm the only pregnant woman in the world whose boobies didn't grow that much! I didn't need to buy larger bras, I just bought bras without underwire b/c they were far more comfy for me!

Your chest doesn't look bad at all, but you are the one that knows. I think you look great, and your baby belly is adorable!

You look great!!! Glad you got some new goodies! I had to buy a new bra up from a C to a D in the first tri - I am sure DDs are in my future. Motherhood's bras are pretty affordable (less than $20) and comfy too.
