Hiding the bump

One of the hardest parts of the first trimester, other than keeping from puking or napping under your desk at work is hiding the bump.  That silly little hormone called progestrone makes your belly nice and puffy for WEEKS making you look pregnant well before you want anyone to notice.  I struggled big time with this.  I had spent an entire year fasting to fit in my size-too-small wedding dress.  After going down sizes and neglecting carbs, it was time to embrace the new body.  I literally had nothing that fit me within a couple of weeks and had to make the best of what I had. 

Here were some of my wardrobe choices.  I hope this helps you if you in the process of hiding that progestrone filled bump.  As you can tell... cardigans were my best friend!






This shirt no longer fits me :-( 
                       I promise I changed my shoes when I got to work!

 This is what I wore out for St. Patty's day... very different than my attire in the past but I made it work.



Happy hiding!!!  While this was a fun journey - I'm excited to embrace the bump and wear some much more comfortable clothing!!!
