LOL.</p> <p>@mrs. bird: I literally just laughed so loud my husband asked, "are you going to make it over there?". spanx are crotchless?!?</p> <p>@MrsH: LOL!</p> <p>I just showed my husband the pictures, and in response to the second one, his eyes literally bugged like a cartoon and he goes "oh...that's different. that's...cool." until I told him I thought it was ridiculous lol...I think he thought I wanted it?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-250000 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 17:28:44 +0000 MrsH 250000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kind of wish I could unsee that second one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249642 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:15:03 +0000 kokobee 249642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>... wow! just wow... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249640 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:13:10 +0000 PrincessBaby 249640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is exactly why I decided to get the handsfree breast pump, so that I was not forced to dress up like Audrey Hepburn and wear a hands-free bra. Pearls, sunglasses, &amp; pumping just don't mix!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249636 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:10:43 +0000 mrs. bird 249636@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: you should DIY! just cut 'em and then put some iron on tape stuff around the edges to keep it from going further! =D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249635 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:10:01 +0000 Sweet T 249635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: hahaha that second picture is ridiculous!! Let me just grab my sunglasses, faux tiara, &amp; black satin gloves so I can pump! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249630 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:08:48 +0000 MamaMoose 249630@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Guys, I own that jumper and I look super hot in it OK?!?!</p> <p>HAHA.. just kidding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249627 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:06:30 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 249627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was laughing at both of those, too! The Audrey Hepburn styling on the pumping bra is the best. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249624 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 13:04:37 +0000 DillonLion 249624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: Haha they should! I've already had to peel these bad boys off three times today... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249622 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:57:48 +0000 sorrycharlie 249622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With how often I pee, a romper = a nightmare.</p> <p>And I totally snorted at that second photo!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249611 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:51:05 +0000 mrs. bird 249611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: they should make crotchless maternity ones! if anyone should have a fast &amp; easy pee opening in their undergarments, it's pregnant women! someone actually told me that the maternity spanx really helped their back because it gave them just a little support lifting the belly, so i can see how that could be a good thing =) but no one should rock the crotchless undergarments with that jumper! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249607 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:46:00 +0000 owlmom 249607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: haha!</p> <p>What's really awesome about the jumper is the length! You could wear that to OB appointments and not have to get undressed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249604 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:44:30 +0000 DillonLion 249604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Haha it is very comfortable! It feels good to have something gently supporting the belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249600 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:43:55 +0000 DillonLion 249600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I pull them off to pee ;)</p> <p>And yikes on the surprise crotchless Spanx! Mine always have a full crotch lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249592 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:39:03 +0000 Foodnerd81 249592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: What you wear under your clothes is your own business (also, that sounds sort of comfortable to me) :). Wearing a maternity denim overalls jumper, on the other hand... </p> <p>I never understand why they would make maternity clothes that look like toddler clothes. You are GROWING a baby, not turning into one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249591 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:38:46 +0000 mrs. bird 249591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: how do you pee? is there an opening or do you have to get out of them? </p> <p>the first time i bought spanx, i was going to try on wedding dresses (the girl on the phone when i made the appointment said that's what most girls wore to try dresses on when i asked what to wear that day), you can only imagine my surprise when i discovered they had a crotch opening! so then i ended up putting pantyhose over them because i was not about to have some lady putting me in wedding dresses while i was wearing crotchless anything! =D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249583 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:32:13 +0000 DillonLion 249583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am currently wearing a ridiculous maternity item. It looks like Spanx with the shorts and high waist, but it is maternity friendly and doesn't constrict. But, please, no one lift up my dress to look at this thing. It is not attractive. But, my legs are not rubbing together so I am happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249559 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:09:04 +0000 mrs. bird 249559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjazz: how did you know i saved the image as audrey pumpburn?!? hahaha =D i think the jumper is for the next mtv series: 12 and pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249551 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:05:29 +0000 mrsjazz 249551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm, perhaps the jumper is for teen moms? :P And that second photo is just horrendous. Audrey Hepburn is rolling over in her grave! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249549 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:05:10 +0000 MrsTiz 249549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>..I have no words for the bottom picture. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ridiculous-maternity-items#post-249546 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:02:48 +0000 mrs. bird 249546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i was on zulily today, and i burst out laughing at a couple of images. one was just the most atrocious maternity jumper (i think if they made it in toddler sizes, it could have been cute!), the other was a picture for PumpEase- i know people love their handsfree pumping bras, but the picture made me choke on my drink! </p> <p>have you come across any ridiculous maternity items?</p> <p>[attach=2301/12/m8cfco.437x543.uggo-preggo-jumper.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=2301/12/m8cfcp.354x358.audrey-pumpburn.jpg] </p>
