Preggo pants revisited

Today I went shopping for a pair of dressy preggo pants as none of my pre-pregnancy pants fit anymore! I had tried on jeans at Target before and that was not fun - they did not fit at all! Then before Christmas I found some jeans at Kohl's that worked, so those were my only pair of preggo pants. When I'm in school I wear scrubs all the time, so those still fit (for now :) ). I did stop at the uniform store today to try on the next size up - they were huge! I ended up getting a different petite style in the next size up so they weren't quite as huge all over, and they do have elastic on the back of the waist. Scrub tops, however, are either very fitted if they are made for women, or they are cut completely wrong if they are unisex. I may have to get creative later on and do some alterations on the next size up.
Anyway, I went dress pants shopping today and was pleasantly surprised with Target - I found a pair of brown slacks there that are my pre-pregnancy size (which makes me feel better :) ) and they sit below the belly. I think they will be great for post-partum as well! I also went to the Motherhood store in the mall, and I found a pair of gray slacks there - they have a thin stretchy waist that goes all the way up over the belly. They should be pretty comfy! It was fun to spend some time at the mall today now that I'm starting to feel better.
Well, Tuesday is our 16 week appointment, and then we get to schedule the ultrasound appointment! Last time the doctor said that we would only have three weeks in between this one coming up and the ultrasound appointment, so that would be February 3rd! Exciting!
