So, yesterday I had a very pleasant surprise. I was out in the garage and found a box with some of my pants in it. Yay. It's winter. I need pants! Oh yeah, but ... I am pregnant :(
I pulled out the pants and realized that they were from a year ago when I was working and had lost some weight. Since marriage, I have gained a few. Not a ton -- but a few. Plus ... I'm pregnant.
I don't know why I tried them on. I was sure I'd be depressed. But in the back of my mind I'm saying to myself "these are the pants I want to wear a month or two after I have the baby." (I was able to squeeze my fat butt back into my regular pants after having Braxton 11 days after delivery. I'm planning on this taking a bit longer .... hehe)
So, I put one pant leg on ... seemed ok. Put the other pant leg on ... they are still feeling ok. OH MY! I can zip these puppies up! Yes, they are a teeny bit snug on my belly, but surprisingly, they fit quite comfortably. I still feel like I can go out in them in public and not make it on the "what not to wear" episode.
So, I am officially 3 1/2 months prego -- just started my second trimester -- and I still fit into my size 8 jeans! Yes, that is right folks. I wanted so badly after having Brax to be in single digit jeans again and I did it last year. So, I'm pretty happy. I was between and 10 and 12 before I got pregnant with Brax. So ... yesterday was a GOOD DAY!
