Transitory Dressing in Tall Maternity Friendly Leggings
It was super exciting to hear after sharing my pregnancy news how many of you are also expecting! Makes me feel like I’m not alone, stumbling through. Being 6’4 and pregnant is a little different than the average woman as many of you already have experienced. The bump is finally starting to show at just over halfway through. While this can be totally welcome for still fitting into your regular clothing for a longer time, it’s also disconcerting to be looking for your body to change and barely seeing much of anything for months! As I start showing, I’m on the hunt for tall maternity friendly leggings.
I made the joke on Instagram that it looked like I was visiting the buffet regularly for (I felt like) the longest time instead of having an “ideal” baby bump. I know, I know that ideal is not a thing but I think when you envision it in your mind it can be a bit of a let down of expectation vs reality. Just sharing a bit of the behind the scenes mindset shift that pregnancy has been for me. A lot of women look forward to this time, and I include myself in that but until your body is changing you don’t really know how you’ll react!
The biggest thing I’ve been grateful for as the changes have started is that I could continue to work out! It has kept me feeling like myself as I continue to sweat but also give myself grace as it gets a bit more difficult to move as easily as before. Secondarily and a nice part (if there was a nice part) of COVID is being home much more than usual. That just means I don’t have to fill my closet with a bunch of pieces for events that I might not get a ton of use out of.
Belly Belts
A favorite purchase so far has been my Belly Belts. I’ve been able to continue to wear my regular jeans with a longer sweater to cover that my pants are unzipped. Also a big shout out to being pregnant in the Winter months, very underrated so far haha. Click here for the link. If you’re just squeaking past being able to button up your jeans then these should prolong the life of them. They come in two lengths. So far I’ve been using the smaller belly band. I should be able to get away with another at least month or so before switching.
I think one of the more elusive pieces tall women search for through pregnancy are pants. Myself included in that. I bought a two pack of tall maternity leggings from ASOS. kept them because they were $13 but realistically they are a bit sheer. As I don’t have a ton of butt covering tops or sweaters I don’t know how much use I’ll get out of them. Plus they aren’t THAT stretchy either. Quite the glowing review, huh.
Tall Long and Curvy Leggings
As for leggings that have been my best friends, nothing changes for Tall Long and Curvy being champions in my closet! Chelsey’s leggings are like butter and have STILL been my go-to leggings during pregnancy. When we first tried TLC leggings out we went with size large. Since we’ve gone on and bought like every single color and multiples of colors as well, we’ve realized we could definitely wear size medium.
Tall Maternity Friendly Leggings
Having plenty of pairs of larges at this point is perfect for pregnancy. I highly recommend these tall maternity friendly leggings if you haven’t tried them already. PLUS, she’s been getting some samples of yoga type leggings to launch. You already know they are guaranteed to be just as incredible. The pairs we have (and are on the site) are all more workout style leggings. But no one will look at you twice if you have zero plans to workout either LOL.
Oh yea, and a little birdy let us try on some jean samples that will be launching in the future. Someone who makes good leggings knows how to pick some bomb jeans for our tall curvy bodies. Get those wallets prepped, that’s all we’re saying. Oh yea, and there will be a restock of the OG black leggings as well with two different lengths. You can thank us later when you’re living in them (like us).
