Anyone else not want to buy new clothes in anticipation of a BFP?

I am hoping to break out my maternity clothes for the winter so I don't really want to buy new things! Bring on the elastic pants!

I want to. I always look at the clothes they have on the websites. I am hoping I won't have to buy too much though. One thing I do though is when I put some of my clothes on that I have now I say oooo this would look so cute with a pregnant belly....haha

I felt that way in the beginning... but when it took longer than I thought it would to get pregnant, I got frustrated having nothing new to wear.

Then I started what I called my transitional wardrobe - clothes I could wear not pregnant and through the first trimester.

Yep! I have a big gift card to Ann Taylor and I keep stalling on going there. I don't want to buy a bunch of work clothes since I'm hoping I won't need them for a loooong time!

I actually never thought about it when clothes shopping. But I have bought certain shirts and thought, this could definitely turn into a cute maternity shirt one day!
