I am 29 weeks pregnant now with a giant bump and got fed up with heaving my trousers up. I felt pretty miserable but as a 1980s refugee I recalled that I had some pairs of elastic braces (trouser suspenders) and I also bought some new ones . Midwives should give out free pairs!!! I had forgotten how ridiculously comfortable and enjoyable they are to wear !!! I have always liked them. I have been swayed by fashion in the past and have been ashamed of the secret affection I had for these accessories ,but not any more -they are a Godsend!!! I also heard that they are also supposed to be great for posture . I once read somewhere that women should not wear them as they had no physical reason to. I whole heartedly disagree, belts can chafe and braces hold ladies trousers up beautifully , in a more superior way and they feel more secure!!
Now I'm v. happy that I rediscovered them and am no longer ashamed to admit it!!!Gone is the misery of pulling up my trousers every 5 seconds it has been replaced by the joys of having my having my trousers staying put. My hubby finds me attractive in them , I absolutely love wearing them and I WILL be incorporating them into some of my outfits after I give birth !!!! * happily tugs on braces* :)

Big hair, Big bump, big argggh!!
Hmm I'm 14 weeks pregnant , my baby is 8cm long. So why do I look like I have swallowed a mini-bus? It is weensy so there is NO need man!!! And I'm fed up with people asking If I'm having twins - frankly that is just MEAN !! Also I seem to have turned into Dolly Parton surely that shouldn't happen so early!!!
!! I'm keepin' it real with my dress sense ,. I'm mixin' up maternity with my 80s take on the whole style thang !!! I'm still finding some people are treating me differently but between you me and the wall I 'm quite upset by it even though I plaster on a smile and get on with it.
I hope they realise that I'm still their friend on the inside, that I still care about them that I'd never do any homework without wearing head'phones or go anywhere without my treasured mirrored aviators!! x x
