Any chance my maternity size will change?

I just ordered a bunch of dresses from old navy and gap to wear in April/May...I ordered the same size I'm wearing now (I'm just about 26 weeks). Think that was a risky thing to do? I always figured old navy/gap tend to wear big anyway....

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

I just did the same thing! I'm so excited to wear them! I'm in the same boat as you. I think we should be ok. I'm just not taking any tags off until I am actually ready to wear them in case I want to return them. Even if I just get credit, I know I'll use it at some point.
Weren't the dresses really cute?

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

Oh funny! What did you order? I just posted mine on your other thread.

I your avatar pic!

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

I bought the same ones as you at Old Navy! The purple one is sooooo pretty! I may have to order that one from The Gap. I think that color at a shower would be really pretty. I can't wait to be able to wear skirts and dresses to work. It will be so much more freeing!

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

I wore the same size until the last 2 or 3 weeks. Then my shirts became very snug.

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

Mine did but I gained 50lbs.

I started in smalls and at the end I was wearing larges. It wasn't really a big deal since my small maternity clothes were all summer clothes and my large stuff was winter clothes so I had to buy more anyway.

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

My size changed the first time around. I went from Mediums to XL at the very end. I had gained 42 lbs though.

I wore the same size the entire pregnancy. The were big in the butt area for the first 24 weeks then...um...I finally grew into them...I only gained 18 pounds though. At think towards the end though, wearing pants of any kind is unbearably uncomfy no matter what size you wear!

I'm so MAD at myself!!! I'm going to shop at Old Navy today (in person) and I went on their website hoping to get some coupons...I sign up for their email alerts and I got a coupon for $10 off $50 ONLINE order! UGGGGH If only I had that YESTERDAY!!

I hope those 3 dresses I got will work! Let me know how you like them too!

Thanks ladies- I really hope I don't go up in size that much! I've been pretty much gaining about 3-5 lbs a month it seems. I guess it won't really slow down at this point!

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

I was the same size until recently & I'm now 37 weeks. My pants all still fit fine & so do my dresses. It's just that some of my tops no longer cover my belly since it's poking out so far.

Re: Any chance my maternity size will change?

I had to go up a size in shirts. But I had 2 in there.
