About the pregnancy cartoons
After many sleepless nights spent pondering the humorous nature of pregnancy, our yet-to-be-pregnant cartooning artist realized she was going to need some help from moms who'd been there. Happily, a beautiful collaboration between the artist and our snarky freelance mom blogger, the sarcastic journalist, sprung up to save the day! The humor was conceived together and each panel was hand-drawn by our relieved cartooning artist.

visually, i'm not really keen on the way i ended up composing this panel-- although i think the idea comes through fine.
if you couldn't already tell-- this is one of those very-excited-to-be-pregnant women, eight weeks pregnant (or something around there) and obviously doing her maternity shopping a tad bit early.

I am 33weeks, and even though its hard to find tops to fit, I can still fit into my pre-pregnant pants, size 3, I guess thats just because shes so high up.

I'm 10 weeks today, over the last few weeks I've been in this phase where my regular pants are getting too tight but maternity pants are too loose. I know have two pairs of pants I don't need a belt with anymore. I loved this cartoon!

I couldnt fit maternity clothes until about 7 months. Even then the pants were too big. I only had a belly didnt gain any other weight. I was kinda upset since I didnt get to do the whole maternity thing.

Is there anyway I could get a hard copy of the pregnancy calendar for my home to share with my family?

I hated shopping for maternity pants! For the first 4 months I just put an elastic on the fly of my regular jeans and wore long shirts. When that stopped working we went on the dreaded hunt for maternity pants and eventually found some jeans that didn't look too bad. One pair I call my humpty dumpty pants because they make my belly look just like humpty dumpty.

i am pregnant with my third child. when i look at myself i think i look pregnant, but noone else seems to notice. i can still button my pants but when i sit down it feels a little uncomfortable. i guess its time to bring out the maternity clothes.

I am almost 12wks. and I look 4 or 5 months! this is rediculous, it is only my first, I thought I would be excited for the day to come, but I literally woke up 3 weeks after finding out I was pregnant...with a HUGE stomach! lol At first you blame bloating, but it just continues to grow.

I'm 23weeks and I have a nicely proportioned belly for being 5months with my first. One thing I have noticed its that the maternity clothes you need depend on where your blessed one sits... do you have a low-belly or a high-one? Mine is low. I'm having a boy and I really wish I could have just bought shirts and kept my same pants. I was pretty thin pre-preg, so alot of my shirts wont fit over my belly either. I feel like I'm forced to either, where clothes that are too tight and show off my belly all to well or where my husband's clothes and hide my pregnancy altogether...it's frusterating at this point. The one pair of maternity pants I was given seem too tight on my belly.

Oh gosh, this is so me. My tummy is pooching out a bit at 10 weeks and 1 day, and my normal pants are uncomfortable when I sit down, but I'm not big enough for maternity wear yet. I'm going shopping today to find some good stretchy pants to wear in the interim. XD

wow, im 21 weeks preggers and i still dont fit in maternity clothes....i am startign to think theres something really wrong with me?
Comment on 9th Sep '07 @ 11:13 amThis comment is 1
i'm 19 weeks now, so i've been going around to stores trying on all kinds of clothes.
it's so frustrating because i'm short -4'11"- and i need pants (who wants to shave every day?) nothing fits... it sucks!
i know eventually i'll have to shop online in order to get petite sizes, but i can't try those on so i'm delaying that as much as i can.
this cartoon would be me if the pants fit but were about six inches too long... ;p (same problem with long sleeves, btw)

wow i started to show early then 8 weeks for me and i could not fit into my clothes i am guessing that it is because my little guy is so low....i am 24 weeks now and i feel like a cow lol

Don't laugh, that was me and I am sooo glad I did, we live in the middle of nowere so i kinda had to go shopping. I was 7 weeks and i am now 14 and living in my PJ's as they at the only things I now fit into. I leave for home on Thursday and have no idea what i am going to wear on the plane for 10 hours.....

i'm twenty weeks and i still haven't bought any maternity clothes. the pants make me feel unattractive. so i'm stickin to my low rise jeans and abercrombie hoodies for as long as i can. :)

Just a guess, but at 8 weeks preggers and not fitting into clothes seems like a bout of constipation...and carbing up to deal with morning sickness that lasts all day. At least, that's what I'm telling myself.
Comment on 13th Dec '07 @ 8:39 pmThis comment is 1
With my first I started to show around 6 weeks and only because I was was pretty thin and petite. I'm only 5' tall and now with my 3rd, I feel like I'm showing but I think it's mostly the leftover weight from my previous kids. I have a lot of weight from them that I was hoping to lose before I got preggers again. No such luck. Now I'm living in my maternity clothes from last time. I can under no circumstance wear jeans, they make me really uncomfortable. So it's loose skirts, loose dresses and very loose tops. I've also found out that Ross has some really cute maternity clothes. Good luck everyone!

I'm 10 weeks pregnant with my first child and all of my shirts fit fine so do my pants except when I sit down I undo them to feel comfortable...But I am so excited bring on the mommy clothes..

I'm 18 weeks and just beginning to get a nice bump showing out front. People keep on thinking I must be only 1 or 2 months along and are surprised when I tell them. Maternity clothes like jeans are so comfy since they fit the same as normal jeans except that they stretch as you grow, but they are still baggy on me.

Josie1982- you just made my day! I love your attitude. I wish I was more like that. I'm the biggest chicken when it comes to my in-laws. I'm getting a little better about not letting them get to me or at least not letting them put me down so much. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that you truly made my day. Thanks!!
