No, I am not sharing anything with anyone. Yet. ??? ;) </p> <p>To be fair, I will say that if/when Rob Sr. and I are pregnant or trying again, we won't be announcing it in general until a little later in the game... because of the nature of my job status. So I'm not officially confirming NOR denying anything. I know, that sucks!!!</p> <p>Once we're pregnant and my job knows and a plan is in place, I promise to announce here before facebook. And for me, that's HUGE!!! :D</p> <p>I know a few people might already be assuming that I'm already pregnant. ...that's fine. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-70227 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:35:54 +0000 venice4504 70227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They make Spanks for Maternity too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-70161 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:21:14 +0000 Andrea 70161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: shutting up now. sorry @tina! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-70159 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 10:19:48 +0000 chopsuey 70159@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: hahahahah this is how rumors start!!

I know I should exercise, but I am too lazy right now.</p> <p>I'd wear them while pregnant no problem. But I liked the full panel pants from like 10 weeks on. Some women never like them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-69396 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:49:24 +0000 aunt pol 69396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd be inclined to agree with Rubies on it. Although I had tight knickers on the other day and even though I felt ok, I kind of didn't feel ok at the same time. Like lying on my stomach early on in pregnancy, just felt wrong. If you've no alarm bells going off in your head, I wouldn't worry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-69356 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:38:14 +0000 Rubies 69356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do they feel tight? I think as long as they're not leaving welts or as long as you feel comfortable, they should be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tightcompression-like-bottoms-dangerous-for-baby#post-69314 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:28:46 +0000 mrs. wagon 69314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I've been wearing leggings and yoga pants I got at Costco (they're called "fat free dressing", hehe) that have tight, high waistbands so they're like spanx and pants all put together. They're comfy AND slimming, and they remind me a lot of maternity pants, the way they go all the way up past the belly. Do you think pants like these would be harmful to baby if you're pregnant? If not, how far into the pregnancy would you wear something like this? </p>
