  • The largest cami shaper (3x) doesn't fit me, seriously when I got it in the mail I laughed. It looked like it could be a snug on a six year old, and I realize it's shape wear, but c'mon this thing would probably suffocate me. How do I get this baby on?

    My favorite top is a maternity shirt, and not just a stretchin' over the big belly shirt, it's like made specialy for making breast feeding easier in ways I won't get into, but anyhow it's a secret I can take to my grave and it looks fab on me :

    And now your turn..... what's a total bummer?
  • 38" waist pants are too loose on me but 36" waist pants are too tight. And I mean way too tight!

    Oh, and I keep buying belts that are too large when I get them home but seem to fit OK in the shop.

    And don't get me started on nice looking shirts that are only available in tailored fit.
  • Pants that are too high waisted. leg length is OK but the waist is half way to my chin.
  • The awesome 2X skull shirt I bought online two years ago is still way too tight on me.
  • All of my favorite shoes are getting to be too big for me now. I know it's a good problem to have but I don't want new ones, I want these broken in and perfect for me shoes to wear.
  • I have so much loose skin around my tummy that if it were all gone I'm sure I'd be down at least one pant size. If I put on one size smaller it fits my butt/legs well, but my skin comes bubbling out of the top! LOL
  • The weekends get so quiet here...
  • I'm wearing a smaller dress size, UNLESS the dress has sleeves. My flipping arms seem huge compared to the rest of me!
  • God I hate fat arm syndrome. I have the exact same problem. Things zip, fit fine in the bust and waist, but in the arms... it's like packing sausages. I have a great scrub top that fits me now, but I have to pull it down over my arm fat several times a day HAHA. It sucks.
  • elvislover I totally get you on the shoes. I would rather wear my beat up raggy old pair of sneakers than one of the 3 new pairs I have waiting for me to break in.

    I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant and pulling out the maternity pants reminded me just how much I HATE regular jeans. They are never comfortable for me. My waist expands if I so much as look at anything with salt in it.

    I love maternity jeans with their elastic, ever expanding waists. Sometimes I am sooo tempted to just wear maternity jeans after I have my baby, really how would anyone know, they look just like regular jeans from the waist down lol.
  • I'd trade any day to shift some of the fat from my belly to my arms!

    It's tough being a guy.

    And it's a total bummer that I have gas tonight.

    I've always thought that the world would be a much happier place if everyone wore maternity pants. Really, it should be a new international law that zipper/button pants be banned, and only elastic/stretch wristbands be made from now on!
