I had my son Saturday. Tonight (Monday) my husband noticed that I wore maternity jeans to my midwife appointment. He asked “You still need to wear maternity jeans after having the baby? Like.. you don’t have other pants that fit?”

I then explain that I have maternity pants & prebaby pants. I can’t yet fit prebaby pants, & point to my still receding baby bump area. He says he gets that, but maternity pants are the only ones that fit? I again reiterate that no, I do not own some mystery in-between pants. He says “never mind” & stops asking.

So in summary, send help to my husband. He may need it.

**side note: it may be the hormones making me overly sensitive but I really don’t understand what’s not to get.. he is not the type of guy to think I need to snap back or to comment on my body normally (especially post baby- this is our second!) so I do not understand what prompted this newfound curiosity into the type of pants I have to wear**
