Where were these Maternity fashions when I was pregnant?

Now don’t get alarmed, I’m not pregnant, but I know a lot of future Moms are reading this blog, so I’m passing on some information about a website that sells THE CUTEST Maternity Clothes! Seriously, when I was pregnant with Ryan in 1996, mostly during the summer, do you know what the maternity stores in the mall were selling? ROMPERS. Do you know what a romper is? It’s a ONE PIECE outfit that buttons down the front. Which meant that every time I had to pee, I had to unbutton it and slide the whole thing down around my ankles! It was NOT PRETTY, let me tell you. Oh, I could have also worn tops with giant floppy bows, those were popular then too. You know what they didn’t make in 1996? COUTURE maternity! I mean, honestly, how lucky are women today that when they are pregnant, they can wear Juicy Couture Maternity for heaven’s sakes??

And the dresses, OH the Maternity Dresses that are available now! This beauty is the Olian Crossfront Maternity/Nursing Dress, and it’s gorgeous! Maybe the problem was that in 1996, not enough celebrities were getting pregnant, so there was no reason to make high fashion maternity clothes. Nowadays, it’s like COOL to be pregnant, which is probably why even hot jeans designer Chip and Pepper makes maternity jeans. You lucky pregnant ladies! I mean, I’m not going to get pregnant just to wear cool maternity clothes, that’s for darn sure, but click any of the links in this post if you want to see just what’s available to wear if you are pregnant.
