Shopping for Maternity Underwear

Filed in archive Maternity Fashion on January 9, 2008

I am well into my second trimester and I badly need new underwear. Everything is just getting big and bigger! Til now, I've been using my pre-pregnancy panties, which have been comfortable only because they're hipsters, so they weren't in the way of my growing belly.

Til now, that is. My belly has grown big enough that the elastic bands are leaving marks on my skin and if I don't get new ones, I'll soon get rashes from them. Ugh, I can do without additional source of discomfort, thank you very much.

In the market for some new maternity undergarments, too? Here are some pointers to note when buying maternity underwear.
