My office dress code is business/business casual, so dresses and skirts are a must for staying cool in hot southern summers. I'm wearing them more now to stretch out my pre-preg clothes at work until I come clean with the pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-583012 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:13:40 +0000 Anagram 583012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I was pregnant, which also coincided with before I lived in the northeast, I wore dresses or skirts 99% of the time.</p> <p>I owned 1 pair of jeans and 1 pair of work pants that I liked.</p> <p>This winter (new climate and new preggo body) I wear pants 98% of the time, but that's probably because I bought 3 maternity pants and 0 maternity dresses or skirts so far. As I get bigger and buy more mat clothes, we'll see if my habits return to more dresses/skirts.</p> <p>I put on this non-maternity dress last weekend to wear out to dinner, and even though it was loose pre-pregnancy, that was probably the last time I'll be able to wear it and I'm only 19 weeks! It's not stretchy though. </p> [attach=2976/13/mil42s.208x600.18_weeks.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582999 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:11:02 +0000 MediaNaranja 582999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: I also am not fond of pants, so I wear lots of dresses, skirts, leggings, etc. Not ttc or anything, but I imagine I will want to wear them a lot more once I am pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582995 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:10:43 +0000 blackbird 582995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear a lot of casual dresses to work. and i've just hit that stage (~34-35 weeks) where pants aren't comfortable. they dig into my legs and thighs and hips and i don't like them at all. so now i wear a lot of skirts and dresses. they are so much more comfortable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582986 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:09:01 +0000 prettylizy 582986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, I love a good dress. I wore them a ton during pregnancy. More than in my normal life because it was easier to go pee over and over again in a dress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582981 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:07:39 +0000 lawbee11 582981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love dresses--it's pretty much all I wear when it's warm outside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582974 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 14:06:25 +0000 yoursilverlining 582974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't really like pants, so I live in leggings, dresses and skirts. When I was pregnant, my wardrobe was easily 95% dresses. In the winter I paired them with tights and in the summer, without. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582867 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 13:50:11 +0000 JessiBee 582867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore dresses constantly when pregnant. It was cold the whole time, so I generally wore them with leggings and boots. The lack of waistband, except on the leggings, was so comfy while pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-582852 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 13:47:41 +0000 Smurfette 582852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear dresses all the time in summer. I would have loved to wear them during pregnancy. But I hate having my legs cold and I am not about to wear tights and my legs are too white right now for dresses anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-wear-dresses-did-you-wear-more-dresses-while-you-were-pregnant#post-581591 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 13:45:00 +0000 BSB 581591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Once a year or maybe twice a year, I'll wear a dress. I do wear skirts but a dress is rare for me. I don't like what dresses look like on me. </p> <p>I was on Zulily today and was browsing through the maternity clothes section (hehe, wishful thinking). I see a lot of cute dresses that I might wear. I'm wondering if I will start wearing more dresses because they seem to be more flattering on pregnant women. </p> <p>Do you wear dresses? Or do you not wear dresses?</p> <p>When you were pregnant, did you wear more or less dresses? </p>
