For the moms that just had babies, do you find it difficult to find a style?
Ever since having DS I feel like I have no style whats so ever (I feel like I did before him) and I also have a hard time finding stuff that looks nice on me. I actually hate shopping because I usually end up all teary eyed.

Oh dont feel down. Why is it that all the sudden you think you cant find a style? Are things too "young looking" ? BC i often think that. Maybe dont find a "trendy" style but a clean, concervative, classic one. Like nice jeans and sweaters and nice pair of boots. Nice slacks etc. Have you checked out Old Navy? They have some cute inexpensive things.

I could of posted this myself! Its sooooo hard to shop since I had DD, it drives me crazy, my body is just not the same. Nothing fits me right anymore, I still have like 15lbs to loose and its taking forever, where before I could loose it in a few weeks. I'm making it my goal now to really get in shape like I use to be and get back into some new clothes!!

Re: For the moms that just had babies, do you find it difficult to find a style?
Hi same problem here!!! Except my baby just turned 2- so I feel like a huge loser!!!! I gained 42 lbs during pregnancy- all in my stomach. I swear I never saw a belly as big as mine. My daughter weighed 9 lbs!
I lost all of the weight probably within the first 6-8 months without diet and exercise (even though I really did plan to do both). However my stomach never went flat again. It looks like a deflated balloon. It pouches out and I am very upset about it. I did not buy very much new clothes, becaus I was hoping it would go away- just because I wanted it to.
So I just now said enough is enough! I went out and bought a few new things. MY husband has always told me to go shopping, but I always just felt like I didn't want to dress this body- instead I would wait for the old one to come back. Well it doesn't look like that is ever going to happen..

I think that is part of the problem I still have 20lbs tacked onto me and I dont know how to dress it. I just get so intimiated by cloths and I guess the other problem is that it usually gets spit up on so why bother looking nice. I am also finding it hard to find the line between dressing like a 25 year old (well 25 next month) and a mom. I dont want to look frumpy.
