I ordered this at Doula Shop, on online store in the US.
The great thing about this is that you can use it from your first trimester and all the way till you give birth when we hopefully get our waist back.
The material is great.
Comfortable and not warm.
It is said to go back to its original elasticity no matter how you expand it.
Honestly, I could not fit into my jeans soon after I found out I was pregnant.
That was week 5.
I was very bloated and hugely tried comforting myself that the body and hormones are adjusting.
Truth is, I broke down on my 7th week of my pregnancy solely because I felt so fat and could not fit into my pants and clothes.
I blamed it on the hormone pills I am taking.
That first week, I gained 5 kg of which I recently lost 2kg.
My body fluctuates really funnily.
The husband has to calm me down and it took me an hour to tell me that I am not fat and it is just the many things that are going on in me.
He told me to embrace pregnancy cos I was only going to get bigger and it is normal.
After all that he said trying to calm me down he asked if I understood.
Like a little girl I nodded my head.
My mom is probably the only one who nags about my weight back then but I had full support from my dad and sis.
The most important thing was good nutrition.
It is tough cos I am a major junkie.
My lifestyle continues to be very active and everytime the husband will beg me to sleep.
Many times, despite the tummy showing, I forget I am pregnant.
I still sleep like a pig.
I walk miles like how I use to.
My orders with Her Closet are still ongoing with packing and coordinating.
In fact, 2 weeks ago I was in Bangkok on a shopping spree.
Wake up and prepare my husband breakfast and then get set to walk till night.
I am still on the hormones but my sister said I look smaller.
I thank god my waistline did not thicken.
Maybe the butt did.

My dear child,
If you didn't realise, your mommy already have a big butt.
There is no need to make it bigger cos I am giving you enough cushioning already. I am sure you are already enjoying yourself in there.
I did you a great favour. Now you do mine okies.
Love,
Mommy
