The last Size 6- April 20, 2010
We’re leaving to go to Las Vegas for our 5th anniversary in 2 days. I wanted to get a dress. (Okay, another dress.) My goal was to get something empire waist so I can wear it for awhile, maybe even get a size or two larger. I was gonna get something with a high back to hide the back breakout. (The horrendous backne battle continues!)
But I left with my typical size 6 with straps that accentuate each humiliating little red bump. I couldn’t help it! I just figured it’d be the last size 6 for a llllooonnnggg time and I wanted a pretty-little-thing during my last days as a Pretty Young Thing. Yes, I know that’s a little concieted, but let me be a P.Y.T.! I’m gonna be a P.S.W. (Pregnant Swollen Woman) pretty soon.
Plus…It was only $29.99 at Target, so I didn’t even spend that much. A size 6 with justification….I’ll miss these days.
I totally got the backne too. Not my favorite. But it went away when I was further in my 2nd trimester.
Also – if you don't gain a ton of weight during your pregnancy, you'll probably be back in that size 6 sooner than you think!! I could fit in all my clothes within 2 weeks of my daughter being born. I gained about 28 lbs during my pregnancy. But even if you gain way more, you'll be fine. My best friend gained 60 pounds & she's seriously tiny now. No worries!!
