Mom's Who Went Back To Work After Baby

I am getting really depressed at the fact that i have 13 pounds left of my pregnancy weight left and can't seem to find a minute to exercise these days.

I have to go back to work in 2 weeks and i literally have 1 skirt that fits me from my work wardrobe pre baby and 1 pair of pants (both were big on me prior).

i don't know what to do...did you go out and buy new work clothes?? I really don't want to spend a lot of money on this as I WILL lose this weight...I just have not had the time to focus on me.

I brought one pair of black pants...but i would need 1-2 suits for meetings..and more skirts.

This plain just sucks....and all of my maternity work clothes won't work either. I wore a lot of summer skirts.

I went to target, old navy, marshalls and TJ MAxx to get some cheap things to wear until I lost the baby weight.

I'm in the same boat except I lost all the weight and thensome and my clothes don't fit like they used to. I go back in 2 weeks and I'm trying to lose another 10lbs to see if that helps. If not, I don't know what I"m going to do.

I had to buy some stuff for work. I tried to shop sales and not buy a ton - but honestly it feels nice to have normal (non maternity) clothes that actually fit me since my regular stuff is still too tight. I have about 12 lbs to lose still but my hips are way wider, nothing I can do about that.

I had to buy new clothes for work when I came back too. It was very depressing.

I have some closets to clean out of clothes that don't fit me. I have some pretty good suits too & as horrible as it sounds they're too good for the Good Will bin. I would love to have a clothing swap.

same here...when I went back to work after Bella was born, I still had 25 pounds to go. Buy a couple of things to get you through, Gap sales and Old Navy was what I did...and NY &Co saved me.

It's OK...we really have ALL been there, it took 10 months to put it on, give yourself some time to let it come offChat Icon

I agree. It is so nice to be in real clothes again, even though they are bigger than my pre-pregnancy clothes.

I'm in the same boat. I lost all the weight, but most of my pants still aren't fitting me. I was actually thinking of going to the mall today and buying a couple of pairs of pants. I figure I have no choice since I'm going back in 2 weeks. Chat Icon
