I get so self conscious and feel shame when these otherwise (aside from their pregnant belly) thin women shop in the plus sized Jewish stores. I know it’s MY issue, but I wanted to share.

Thanks for listening.

How does that work? The shoulders aren't huge on them?

How does that even work? They don’t fit in plus size just because they have a pregnant belly. I never see this in my area. How many do you actually see?

Yes this doesn't work for me, I have sisters that are plus size and I can't take their clothing as maternity. Believe me I've tried

I guess certain styles can work in plus size.

That is very strange because pregnancy doesn't mean plus all over.

Maternity skirts are made in a specific way to accommodate the belly as it enlarges.

I've seen this to. It's because the plus size stuff in the plus size stores aren't necessarily "plus sized." They just carry larger sizes which the regular frum stores don't really. So maybe these ppl are getting the 0x which is what? The equivalent of a 10-12?

Interesting.
I'm a tall l. Sometimes, I might shop at a plus section.... When I'm pregnant I get huge. I would never step in a plus size shop. It simply doesn't fit right.

Can you tel how fat someone was before they were pregnant?
I’m not plus sized, but definitely have some areas that are harder to fit. When pregnant, I would much rather plus sized stores which have normal looking clothes vs maternity which is more expensive and ‘shows’ the stomach more.

Local stores, the maternity stores are cheaper than the plus size stores. It's one reason I look forward to being pregnant. I'm a size 22. Significantly cheaper. I bought gorgeous top in bp last week $220!
