Pregnancy Lifesaver - Trussing

New feature! I thought I would share some of the things that make my life easier or more comfortable. The idea came from all of the things I never knew about pregnancy, but I have a feeling that it will continue with a kid. Spoiler: expect to see some bottles of wine mentioned here in a few months.

My back has been KILLING me this week, in a way I've never felt before. It's right in the middle of my back and it throbs and no amount of stretching or rubbing or rolling on the floor on a tennis ball helps. Someone suggested I get a maternity belt. Sigh. I was vaguely aware that there was a basket of these at my favorite consignment shop, so I thought I would give it a shot.

As far as looks, I mean, it's an easy 10+



Hot, right?

Plus I was skeptical because the last thing I need is more structural engineering in my dressing process.

But, oh my god. The second I tried it at the store it felt good. So freaking good. I wore it to work yesterday and it made a hude difference in how I felt.

Also, I put it over the belly panel of the jeans I wore yesterday because they keep falling down. Bonus!

(I'm back-dating some lifesavers to the greatest of my recollection. If you're interested, you can click on the lifesavers tag to see them.)
