Sizes

I've been meaning to say for a week or so that I have been quite happy with my weight this pregnancy. It's far from ideal but I have still only put on a total of 14lb since I found out I was pregnant. For 32 weeks, I don't think that's bad going.
Also, I seem to be shaping up a little without trying. I have managed to stay comfortable in my normal style trousers at size 18/20 (US size 16-18) so far but swiched to elastic waists. A couple of months ago I bought some size 20 maternity jeans from a budget shop. I didn't wear these jeans much though as they did feel a little too tight on my thighs and bottom. When I did wear them they would feel like they were falling down as I couldn't really get them high enough to stay up. I was constantly hiking them up.
Now they seem to be a PERFECT fit and feel really good in the right places.
Needless to say my legs look half the size in fitted jeans rather than baggy jersey trousers and I feel so much better when wearing them. I'm quite happy with that.
