Mama Spanx maternity pantyhose
Wherein we have our cake and look good too Thursday, August 10, 2006
We go to the gym quite regularly, but like many expectant mamas, Mamakaze has been known to find ourself “lapsing” periodically on our vow to make every calorie count. When we crave cake, we crave cake. And cake we shall have … because, dag-nab-it, we’re pregnant!
Thus, we are gaining our pregnancy weight not just in the belly, but also in our behind. And as much as Papakaze may not mind a little extra junk in our trunk, we are entering some unfamiliar weight territory as it is, and must admit there are days when we’re not feeling so confident about our badonkadonk. And when we wear our cute white maternity pants which are sooooo lovely for summer, Mamakaze’s mind sometimes wanders into that ugly “exactly how much cellulite is visible” zone?
Well, thank goodness for Spanx! We remember Spanx from when we had a busy year and managed to subsist solely on Chinese takeout and double cheeseburgers and consequently gained 15 pounds. Thanks to this magical hosiery, we were somehow able to maintain a svelte derriere despite flirting with back fat and jiggly arms. Luckily for pregnant women, we have Mama Spanx — hose that not only pull in that butt-fat we seem to accumulate so easily with just three orders the tiniest plate of tiramisu, but also (praise heaven!) offer support for our bulky bellies.
We’ve tried maternity belts but can’t say we’re really a fan, so Mamakaze was delighted to learn that Spanx are made for those with child. We have to say they are a lot comfier and don’t leave weird lines that show through our clothing, and we’ve never heard of a maternity belt that smooths cellulite or pulls in flabby thighs. Score three for Mama Spanx and zero for horrid elastic belts!
Mamakaze particularly likes Mama Spanx footless , which can be worn under pants and skirts with the leg band placed anywhere from high to low. With everything neatly sucked in and our baby bump riding in well-supported comfort, we no longer find ourself asking, “Does this baby make my butt look fat?”
