It's no fun being moody. Life sometimes pull you down but you always have to pull yourself together and stop feeling like the world owes you. It's all in the attitude... yadda, yadda, yadda (yeah, puke now if you want... hehehe). I don't like being moody but it can't be helped at times. I'm only human... (sing with me)... born to make mistakes!
So, while I was out for lunch today I saw this gorgeous woman next to me having her lunch too. She was pregnant, I think she will pop anytime soon cos she was huge (and I couldn't help eavesdropping)... LOL! She was on the phone talking to her mom or maybe her sister about maternity clothes .
I noticed most maternity clothes these days are stylish and very up-to-date. Unlike those days, maternity clothes were more like over-sized sleeping gowns, some even resembled baby doll dresses. When you're huge and you're wearing an even bigger and rounder dress, it's not cute. Oh god, I still remember how awful I felt wearing those ruffles on the sleeves but those days (more than a decade ago) you really didn't have much choice when it comes to maternity dresses.
Today they have a variety of maternity dresses that don't even look like maternity dresses. Take this site, AppleSeedBoutique.com for example. They have a wide selection of maternity wear for the hip and modern expectant mums, even tops, suits, swimsuits as well as baby clothes, diaper bags, strollers... I could go on and on. If you're expecting or know someone whose expecting, do check it out. I'm sure you'll find something that catches your fancy.

Hey Nessa!
Glad you're feeling better. Feel better myself after reading this post :)
I received an H&M catalog the other day, and as I was looking through the maternity section I thought...hey, I want that! Hahaha, and I'm not even pregnant, but the clothes looked really cool. I do have a couple of babydoll tops though, that make me look pregnant. LOL
I am glad to hear you are feeling better, Nessa.
I agree with you, maternity clothes have come a really long way...now if I see maternity clothes that are cute and cool for plus sizes that would be awesome! :)
I thoroughly enjoyed the sing a long :)
When I was pregnant the second time around I wore sweat pants and some of my dad's old shirt...lol. I wasn't working so I didn't have to look good just feel comfy.
Maternity clothes, some of em look so cute that massy can tertipu thought normal clothes orz.

Duni ~ Yup, I'm glad I feel better too... hehe
I've tried those baby doll dresses before but I looked so silly! LOL!
I think those are more suited to petite and slimmer figures.
Thanks Tanyia :)
Oh, I shop in those plus sizes section too. Sadly, they're normally not very stylish.
Thank goodness for tops and jeans!
Ann ~ Sing your blues away! :D
Lucky you. I had to work in both my pregnancies... I wanted to lie in bed for the whole 9 months!
Maslight ~ Yeah, some memang stylish, macam tops biasa kan. I salute those yang heavily pregnant but masih boleh pakai ketat2, and yet they look so stunning!

Me always ketinggalan owh... :( Whatever it was that made you felt satu macam, hopefully, you are OK now! :)
Nah, if preggy senang dah mo cari baju yang cun2 ni hihihihiii...
I am also human nessa, memang ada salah dan silapnya.
yer yer mood perasaan yang tak syiok memang tidak baik. HuhU, anak murid rizal memang senyap kalau rizal tgh moody sebab mereka malas.
Bak kata salah seorang mereka, takut bila tak siap kerja dan incik RnR moody, sebab bila-bila masa ajer boleh kena ngap. huhu
VanillaSeven ~ Some you can even wear for work and nobody would even know it's maternity wear! :)
Tia pa ba Crystal, itu kejadian slalu every month datang punya... besa suda :) I'm OK oredi. Just worried about my dad.
Iya, ko cari2 la di sana kalo ko preggy ah... hehe. Sia ni suda tutup kilang, no more production!
Rizal ~ Iya, sbg manusia biasa kita selalu tersilap. Yang penting kita belajar dr kesilapan kita.
Kalau Nessa jadi cikgu, sure anak2 murid sume tak nak masuk kelas sbb I memang garang macam dragon! Cita2 dulu memang nak jadi guru tapi tak jadi. I realized I don't have what it takes to be a teacher... I lack patience!
Nessa, you are soooo not going to see me wearing the 'one-piece' maternity gown yang orang dulu2 selalu pakai tu. Not in a million years. It makes us look like penguin. (referring to jalan kengkang wearing the gown) Kakakaka
Do they still sell that type of maternity gown ah? I still can't believe I actually wore those la. Lucky I don have pictures to remind me how silly I looked! :)
Ah, the penguin walk. How's your penguin walk? Kiut tak??! Hehehe
