Relaxing Doesn't Make Babies

Natalie
From hopeful TTC, through infertility, IVF and the resulting pregnancy, this became a journal through grief and trying again after the loss of our first son, Devin, at 36 weeks. After multiple more IVF cycles we got pregnant with our second child, a little girl born healthy and alive in May of 2010. Our third child, a most unexpected surprise baby girl, was just born in June 2012!

Oh, ouch

May 16, 2007 — 12:56 pm

I had to try on my dress slacks for the client meeting today. I couldn’t even do one of my pants up. It was horrible. So just for shits and giggles today after the meeting I took my measurements.
Waist: 30.5″
Hips: 40.5″

I just looked up my past measurements from last year. Surprizingly, I haven’t put on any inches at all. I’m a little shocked by that…. I thought for sure… huh. Well. I guess it’s a good thing I write down actual numbers.

I wish those numbers would go down, but I can settle for them not going up. (And what pants I can and can’t wear definitely fluctuates throughout the month and depending on what I’ve eaten.)

That’s why I wear skirts almost exclusively now. It’s become almost impossible to find a pair that fits me comfortably because of my weird body shape and short legs.

Well at least I have long legs. (Not always a bonus when shopping, though). But the waist-to-hips ratio always makes shopping for pants a very sucky experience.
