Thanks for the heads up--I usually scale up by hand anyhow.

I unfortunately lost the pregnancy. But we will try again, after things are more suited. This pregnancy was unexpected, but welcome.

Either way... I will be looking at maternity clothes and baby clothes of the vintage kind to be ready if I am blessed again, and for the long haul.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, for both of you. Be extra kind to yourself for the next little while.

Red & PC, many thanks for your lovely comments, we are proud of our 2 young men and they love dressing up and getting the attention too!

Killertomata, very sorry to hear your sad news, I was lucky never to experience this so my heart goes out to you. But on the positive side, it's nature's way of saying there was something not right and at least it proves you are able to get pregnant! Good luck in the future, it will happen.

I never found any vintage maternity, and now I am in the 3rd trimester. and I just want to get the baby out, so I can get back to my vintage. lol
no really. I am excited to shop for vintage again, I had to sell most of it during this pregnancy, becuase I opened my own store and we were BROKE.. so now I need to start collecting again

Here's a link to a site that recommends patterns to replicate the kid's clothes in the Narnia movie.

Bump! Bump! Baby Bump!

I'm bumping this thread back up since I'm now myself in the family way!

Ladies, you helped me vintage up my wedding a year and a half ago and now I need your help again to vintage up my maternity!

And any advice from you Moms out there is greatly appreciated!

Congratulations!!

Congratulations Miss Dottie!!!

i was soooo uncomfortable my whole pregnancy that vintage was the LAST thing on my mind. I went to Sears maternity dept and bought anything that was comfy and required as least amount of ironing as possible. hahah.

i hope you do better than i did!

 

[Miss Dottie]

I don't know if I will be able to, but I love this sorta vintage dress Charlotte wore in "The Sex in the City".

She makes it looks so effortless. I fear I won't.

I just want a hint of vintage to sorta keep the dream alive, you know?

 

[decodoll]

Bumping again!

Congratulations Miss Dottie!! I'm expecting as well. When are you due? I started wearing maternity a couple of weeks ago. If you keep an eye out on ebay, things come up fairly regularly. I got a lot of 18 pieces of 40's/50's maternity that no one else bid on for $99! My uniform now is vintage 50's tent blouses with modern maternity cigarette pants and ballet shoes or penny loafers.
