Went shopping again for maternity clothes again. I went with my friend from Ft. Worth. A little back ground, the family that drinks and is obsessed with weight. If you are not a size 4 or 6, then you are FAT!
Well, when I first met her I was a 4, but am not that anymore. The family has made no bones over the past 5 or 6 years that I have gained weight and am fat. ok, you get the picture..
Well, while shopping I am all concerned about looking too heavy. She is picking out all these clothes that are HUGE! You know that you would wear at 9 months. She was getting annoyed with me because I was not liking any of the clothes and I hate the pants with panels in the front. I kept saying "these shirts are too big..they make me look bigger than I am"...her response actually was.."so what it is ok to look big..your pregnant. It does not matter how big you look!" She just had a baby and was so SMALL!! She was wearing her size 4 to 6 ONE WEEK after the baby was born. And actually complained about how fat she was!!!
Now I can't believe she said that!! You just have to know this family...they make fun of anyone and everyone that is bigger than a 6. And you know as soon I leave the room they talk about how "big" I am.
I did buy a pair of shorts, jeans and khakis with a panel because they were so cheap on sale and a few of the big shirts(too cheap to pass). However, they will not be worn until my 9th month. The shirts come down to my mid-thigh!!! And she was like.."that looks good"..WHATEVER! It was just hanging on me!!!!
She thinks I am much bigger than I am obviously!! Oh....and she thought the GAP overall shorts I was wearing were maternity and when I told her no they were not she was shocked!! Ok, the more I think about it..the more annoyed I am getting.!!
I am just venting...I know she meant well. And I did purchase a great deal at a small price.
Ok this is hormones....and the fact that I am starting to gain weight now...so I really hate it! I know I will be 7 months in Friday..so maybe I should not complain...but I don't want to gain....URGH
Enough whining from me!
