Re: so not that it really matters
GUYS, get the BELLABAND. It makes life sooo much easier. mommy2be, all those pants that are a bit too tight, you just wear them unzipped/unbuttoned, and the band holds everything in place. I've lost weight since I found out, but everything is tight cuz of my expanding tummy. And I don't like to wear things that put pressure on my abdomen when I'm sitting and such, and most pants do.
I get looks from all my phuppos, MIL, mom, mumanis and such, even when I wear a 1-inch heel. Normally I only wear flats, but at formal occasions they just don't look right. My golden sandal has a really high heel, so I'm going to need to get a 1inch one for the upcoming shadi season.
And Ammi just took out my gharara shirt for my cousin's wedding in two weeks, so that's all set. And I have saris ready for more formal stuff. But for dawats and stuff, I'm just going to invest in nice kurtis and such. I think people understand and don't expect you to wear designer stuff -- as long as you look nice. And I agree, I want to look good!
Is a chiffon sari too scandalous during your pregnancy? Because I love them.
