I plan on wearing mostly dresses this summer, but I think shorts will be occasionally necessary this summer. I put on some non-maternity shorts yesterday to walk my dog, thinking I could situate the waistband under my bump, but they were uncomfortable as all get-out.
I'm interested in casual shorts (like chinos), not athletic shorts. Which ones do you like?
I really haven't seen any yet, but I found a pair of khaki capris on clearance so I bought those and had my mom hem them to shorts length. I think that one pair will be enough, I don't wear shorts often even not pregnant.
I tried on some at Old Navy yesterday that I loved! They have either navy or grey linen and are a fold over waist. I am 3 weeks from my EDD so I didn't end up getting them...but I may go back because I could totally wear them post partum this summer with the waist folded down.
I tried on some motherhood ones on and took them off ASAP - they were not flattering. Of course, my legs may be a little thicker than normal now. :/ I'm due in June, so I'm going to try to get by with just capris and dresses until then.
I hate buying shorts anyways, so am not excited to spend too much time on it while pg.
