NZ- those dresses look like you bought them! ( I bet they're better made than store bought). You did a great job. I'm excited for you!
I loved being pregnant!!!

Your dresses are very pretty. I preferred tops and long shorts or long pants. My last is 50 yrs. old.

I always wanted four kids but, never happened. I helped raise our oldest Granddaughter so I guess she played the part of the 4th.

I am just enjoying my Great Grandkids now. Good luck.

These look so comfy...congratulations!

I seldom wore dresses then (40-50 years ago) and seldom do now. As a farmer, jeans and shorts were better for me whether pregnant or not!.

Worked with all 3 babies. Got smart with the first one and bought 3 jumper-type dresses. I was able to wear my blouses underneath until the last month. Made tops so they were long enough to go over the baby bump. Best item I bought was PG jeans. In fact wore them out wilt first baby. Hmmm...still wear jeans a lot...lol

Still Sew N

Congratulations! Oh I so remember sewing up my maternity dresses! Yours are really cute and will make you feel good! Good selection of patterns and fabrics! Again congratulations and enjoy those dresses!!

My children were born in 86, 88 and 89, three in a row. I wore nothing but maternity clothes for four years! When it was over, that was pretty much all I had.

I was rather new to sewing when I had my kids. I made a few tops but that's it. My SIL is an amazing seamstress. She made me a pair of jeans with a panel that I wore out practically. By jeans I mean they looked like jeans material but weren't. I can't remember what the fabric was. They were so comfortable.

NZ- my Mom never wore pants. I mean never! When I went to college I got a letter from my oldest brother telling me that Mom got pants!! Ha! It's still such a cute and funny memory. Growing up she never sported a pair. She wore what they called "house dresses". She always looked so feminine. But once she started wearing pants it was game over. Haha!!
My Dad always wore a suit. I have lovely pics of Christmases where he is sitting there with his suit on. People really knew how to dress back in the day!
