Baby Shower What to Wear?



Recommended Posts

So I'm not girly girl at all and I've never worn a dress lol I do not own heals. What in the world am I suppose to wear for my baby shower? My shower is the last Sunday of this month and I know I want to be comfy and not feel like everyone's staring at me but then if I wear something that's me I think I'll look odd. I'm a jeans and shirt converse type of girl. So I thought mate some black jeans a pink sweater and flats. Then I think it will look weird. I'm Hispanic and these folks are more into a dressy pregnoid celebration. Help! I need some help lol

Baby doll blouse with gauchos or any dressy pants. I had to wear flip flops because my ankles were so swollen, but at least they were dressy type. I'm Latina too and my family ALWAYS gets dressed up.

That's what I was telling my sister who's throwing it for me and she said it was okay to do black pants and a dressy shirt. I hope I can find something nice band not too dressy

As long as your comfortable that's all that matters. I was actually able to find a nice outfit in motherhood for plus size. That was also 5 years ago lol. Good luck

For my shower I wore black stretch capris and a flowy top, with black flats. Remember you are the mom to be, and your comfort is important. I found some beautiful outfits for my niece that is expecting at JC Penny, also Target carries some really nice maternity stuff. Remember that you will be in front of the group, and if you are not comfortable in your clothes it will show. Just wear something that looks nice, but also makes you feel like yourself. Congrats on the baby 2 be.

Awe thanks :) I decided to go look around today and I saw two nice shirts at motherhood but my problem area is my boobage. Shirts fit nicely around my belly a lot of extra space but my boobs literally popped open the shirt lol so I decided to go online and check out torrid. I found a very nice me type of blouse. I'll wear some black jeans n flats. Thanks for the help :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
