Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Weekend Wardrobe- Maternity Style

December 21, 2015 by Katie Haller

 I almost didn’t think that I’d get a chance to post any outfits this weekend, because I’ve been so tired lately.  It’s getting a little harder for me to come up with new outfits each week, but since this is the last time I will have the opportunity to post a bump update in 2015, I figured I should at least try to pick out a couple cute new looks from my closet to share. 
I recently decided to finally bite the bullet and buy a pair of maternity jeans.  My normal jeans are still fitting, but I wanted a comfortable, stretchy pair of jeans for my last trimester.  I ended up finding a pair at Motherhood Maternity (exact here).  Since maternity clothes are not cheap, I waited until Cyber Monday to get a better deal on them.  The jeans were originally $44.98.  I was able to get 30% off with free shipping, bringing the price down to $31.49, more in my price range.  The jeans are cute and super comfortable, so I’ve already gotten a lot of use out of them, but my biggest complaint is that they are a little too baggy.  I’ve run into this problem with all the maternity clothes that I have tried on.  These jeans are just too saggy in the butt and thighs.  It’s annoying, but I’ll make do with them for now, especially since they’re so comfortable.
Here are some outfits I wore with my new jeans this weekend.

 Saturday

 Tank Top- H&M
Sweater- Express
Jeans- Motherhood
Necklace- Charming Charlie
Boots- Target

Sunday

 Top- Kohl’s
Scarf- Target
Jeans- Motherhood
Blazer- Target
Boots- Target

Here is my bump picture for the week.  Besides feeling tired, some of the symptoms I’ve been experiencing have been shortness of breath and feeling light-headed occasionally.  I know those are normal symptoms in your third trimester.  I’ve also been getting leg cramps a lot at night.  They are painful and feel like a growing pain, but I can usually make it go away by stretching or getting up and walking around.  The baby’s kicks are getting harder.  He likes to kick me in the ribs a lot, which doesn’t always feel great, but I still love feeling him move around.
Even though I complain about the uncomfortableness of pregnancy, I feel so blessed to be having such a healthy pregnancy with no major problems.  I honestly was expecting it to be harder than this.  Now I just pray that my little guy is born healthy and the rest of my pregnancy goes smoothly, including the whole labor and delivery thing.  That will be the hard part.  I’m hoping to meet my little boy in 8 weeks and 5 days 🙂

31-week baby bump
Have a great week and Merry Christmas!!

Does anyone else still have a gingham button-down shirt still hanging in their closet? 👕 I still love this style! The easiest way to update this look is to switch out your jeans for a different silhouette.

Happy Mother’s Day!! 💕 Today I am truly embracing this day and remembering how much I always wanted to be a mom! 

I recently came across a journal entry I wrote 10 years ago on Mother’s Day—right after my second miscarriage. I wrote that I was ready to be a mom, but I was so scared and worried about our future. I didn’t know when and if it would actually happen. 

One month later, I was pregnant with my son.

And now here I am, ten years later—tired, busy, deeply grateful, and fully embracing this season I once wanted so so bad! 

To every mom today—in the waiting, in the chaos, or missing the days that flew by—I see you. We are all in this together! 💕
