That is AMAZING BALLS!!! </p> <p>@skibobrown: I know what you mean about the bottoms! That's wear all my "stored fat" is! ha. I can shop for tops no problem, unless they are extremely tight in the boob area... that is a no go, with breastfeeding and the constant changes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-can-you-go-shopping-for-yourself-after-baby#post-175637 Thu, 31 May 2012 23:17:15 +0000 skibobrown 175637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started shopping around 6 weeks postpartum as well. I desperately needed new clothes. Tops are easy b/c my size hasn't changed with those at all. I'm still afraid to buy too many pants until I find my new size... but I did buy a new pair of jeans, since all women should own at least one pair of jeans that fit. </p> <p>Actually, I also bought some cheap summer maternity clothes from Old Navy right after the baby was born b/c I didn't have any shorts that fit me, and the weather warmed up very suddenly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-can-you-go-shopping-for-yourself-after-baby#post-175559 Thu, 31 May 2012 22:01:05 +0000 HLK208 175559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started shopping around 6 weeks pp--I lost most of the weight by that point and a month later I lost 10 more pounds so the new clothes just looked better rather than baggy.<br /> This time might be harder since this is my second, I might wait until 10 weeks pp. But hey you've already lost the weight! At least reward yourself a little with some new clothes :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-can-you-go-shopping-for-yourself-after-baby#post-175510 Thu, 31 May 2012 21:39:33 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 175510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to the mall today while the cleaning lady was well... cleaning the house. I can't wait to start buying clothes again but am afraid of 2 things. </p> <p>1 - I will lose much more weight and it's simply a waste of money<br /> 2 - My body isn't really my body yet (bigger boobs, muffin top) so everything I like on me now, might not look good later. </p> <p>So my question is, when can you go shopping for yourself after baby? </p>
