In part, I am excited for the belly because it will be proof to the world that I really am pregnant. So many times I have wanted to ask a perfectly fit 20-something man if he would be willing to give me his seat on the metro because I think I might collapse from exhaustion at any moment, but I haven't because I am sure he would think I was totally lame and if I say I'm pregnant, no one would believe me.
The other reason for wanting the belly-- New Clothes! I haven't bought new clothes in a very long time. Mostly because I am too cheap. But recently, it's been because I know I won't be able to wear them for very long so it doesn't seem like a great investment. Once I have a belly, I will have a NEED for new clothes and then the expense will be justified. Can't wait.
Even though I am totally not stylish normally, I am hoping to use this life-changing event to become the modern and stylish woman I have always wanted to be, starting with pretty maternity clothes. I have been following this blog of a woman who appears to be about my age, who's been blogging about her style for 5 years. Got pregnant last spring, had a baby in January, so now she has a LOT of posts about maternity and nursing fashion. If you're interested, you can check out a guest post she did here. She's good-- she's how I found out that Old Navy carries petites online. Her regular blog is here.
