Maternity Trouser Waistband Stretcher..... thingies...
:lol: I've NO idea what these things are called but I told me friend I'd ask where the mammy's on the boards had gotten them ;)
You know those things that allow you to wear your regular jeans and trousers because they button to either side of your waistband buttons and give you an extra few inches to accommodate your blossoming tummy? Do you know what they're called or where she might get one?
thank you! :D
Answer:
I think they are simply called waist extenders?
The seamstress' shop where I get my alterations done sells them, and so does the likes of Lakeland. They are always in the Kleeneze book when it comes around as well!

Answer:
brilliant! thanks Princess I'll have a look online for her! ;)
Answer:
Waist extenders are like double ended button things and only give an extra inch or so. I needed *way* more than that when I was preggers :lol: She might be interested in one of these belly belts:
(I think they're also available from John Lewis, Blooming Marvellous, Jojo Maman Bebe etc).
I don't know if they're any use - I was always so worried about tops riding up and exposing the panel, that I just went straight to stretchy roll top trousers. But if she wants to wear her own trousers a bit longer, it'd probably do the trick.
Answer:
I think they're called a belly band or something similarly vile...

Hey guys
I am currently sitting in a very grim internet cafe in Gweru in the Zimbabwean Midlands. Have got about 3 more minutes before my time runs out.
Anyway, for any interested, I am having an amazing time here. I have been here for a week working with the lions. There are 20 lions I have been working with, from 7 days old to 2 years old, and all of them are beautiful. Each time I leave a group, I think they are my favourite. The 3 month old cubs, because they are so playful, and love using me as a climbing frame, the 4 month old cubs, because they are more wary of humans, but have started to get to know me, so a cuddle and a lick from them is brilliant. The 7 and 8 month old cubs are brilliant fun, as they are leaning to stalk prey and walking them for 2 hours morning and night can be really exciting as they spot an antelope in the distance and try and figure out how to get it. The 2 year old cubs DO get their prey though, and that is awesome. Just being out in the beautiful African bush with the cubs watching the sun rise or set, is something I will never forget,
So, all in all, this is a fantastic experience. Funny place to be, Zimbabwe at the moment, but I am going to the orphanage this weekend to spend a bit of time playing with the kids. Have brought lots of games and toys out, so hopefully they will enjoy those. Lots have HIV and AIDS, and lots have been physically and mentally abused, so I expect it will not be very easy.
I have 2 more weeks here, then 4 days at Vic falls then home. Seems weird already to think I won't be up at 6am to walk my lions soon...
Hope you are all well....

What do you think of these dresses?
NO.4. ask :
What do you think of these dresses?
OR...
For my 21st birthday party???
What do you think/like best *if any:o * lol
Thanks PP xx
Answer:
I like the 1st one best as it is more summery.
I like the shape - I think it will be very flattering on.
Answer:
I like them both, particularly the second one but the first is more summery.
I think the first style can be very hard to wear and can make people look pregnant :cmdunno:
Answer:
I'm not too keen on either to be honest. I like the colourway on the first dress but not the style.
What do you think of this dress? It's also from Lipsy and similar to the first one you've posted.
Answer:
i prefer the style and fit of the 2nd, though the first is more summery

I need to get some little vests to wear under sheer blouses and a knee length a line skirt. Maybe some pjs too.
Is there anything cute I should look out for?!
Answer:
I didn't see anything "new" in there on Sun. I went to OC to try and do a refund but the queue was so long it ran all the way around to the actual queue so I stomped over to H'smith to go and do it there instead!!
