Helloooo Pre-Pregnancy jeans!!....goodbyeprepregnancy jeans.... :(

Well, it is getting cold outside and I realized that I can't wear my maternity capri pants anymore. Not only is it not weather-appropriate, but they don't fit and after a while the crotch ends up down by my knees. Not only that but people look at me funny when I try to hike my pants back up.

I dug through my drawers and closet this morning and finally found my pre-pregnancy jeans. I was so excited. Naively, I thought I could fit right back into them. Anxious, I jumped into them and then got stuck on the posterior/waist region. UUUUUUUGH! I was able to get them buttoned and zipped, but not without forming a gigantic muffin top and cutting off my circulation.

I am still wearing them, but now unzipped and unbuttoned with the assistance of my trusty Bella Band. I had put the Band away around month 5 when my pre-pregnancy pants just wouldn't fit anymore regardless of what I did. Now, it's helping me hold my pants up and hide the pudge that I have now. I was surprised that it still has any elastic in it. I wore that thing out. It has holes in it, the edges are rolled and ragged....It will do in the interim I suppose.

I need to suck it up and go shopping ......
