I am 9 weeks post partum and still am sporting a jelly belly. I needed to find a suitable outfit for a bridal shower this weekend, so I braved the mall. Trying on clothes is never fun, especially now, but I managed to find some pants that fit and looked relatively decent.

Of course they were way more than I wanted to spend, but my husband convinced me to get them since my clothing selection currently is limited.

We have to leave in 30 minutes to go to the event (it's 3 hours away) and I just pulled the new pants out of the bag to discover the they didn't take the ink tag off when I bought them!

Ugh. Now I literally have nothing to wear. I'm squeezing into other pants in the hopes that the long car trip will stretch them enough that I don't look like a stuffed sausage when I get there.

(p.s. why don't we have a Postpartum board?)
