how do you dress now that youre a mom??

im 23 and the clothes that i was wearing prior to my pregnancy were very like edgy whimsigoth and i loved a good mini skirt, i feel like theres nothing wrong with me dressing like that still now that im a mom like look at pop artists some of them are 26+ in tiny outfits etc etc, and my bf made a comment about how im a “mom” now so i should dress like it but i feel like the way i dress doesnt define my parenting ??? idk but it also feels like my style did change bc i do shy away from the mini skirt now and go for a longer skirt which is still cute but idk if its because i changed or i just keep thinking about how im a mom now

I pretty much dress the way I did before. I was only wearing jeans and a t-shirt before. I only get dressed when I leave my house. Other than that I look homeless and like Adam Sandler almost 24/7

Being stay at home I've personally been sporting the night gowns more often but out in public still the same as before but even then I was a t shirt and jeans kind of girl. But I do wear dresses more often now

Dress how you want!! I was a emo girl all through high school until I gained weight due to health issues. I always wore jeans and flannels. Now that I've had a kid it's made me hate/love my body even more. I loved my pregnant body and it made me embrace my girly side and wear more dresses and skirts. Now that he's 10 months I've started getting more skirts and dresses again because I loved how I felt in them. I also were a lot of crop tops because they are comfy. I've got a big chest with curves that I've hid for so long I'm done being scared.

Of course you should totally wear whatever you’re comfortable with - but I personally love to wear dresses!
Stretchy dresses are my go-to now!

My style definitely changed after being a mom, but more because I choose comfort and practicality over cute now. I also can't tolerate tight fitting clothes anymore.

Dress how you want.

I literally had my daughter less than a month ago and went out for the first time with a girlfriend wearing high waist distressed denim shorts, a long sleeve black mesh crop top with just my black nursing bra underneath (unpadded), and knee high black boots. My eyeliner was sharp af. Being a mom doesn't change your style, you just wear what appropriate for the setting. Do I wear platforms and spikes out with my partner or friends? Yes. Do I wear the same platforms to a doctor's appointment? Also yes, I just trade the spikes for a baby wrap so little one is close and can't either rip jewlery out of my face or poke herself on it. You wouldn't wear a mini skirt with 6" pumps and nothing under it to a kindergarten field trip, but you might wear it with tights or leggings and slides or converse so you can chase them around. It's just about dressing how you think and feel is appropriate for each situation. If you want to get dressed up to go to the grocery store do it.

I’ve personally found that I shy away from a lot of the clothing I used to where before I had my son, I don’t have many issues with body image (though we all have moments) but I found myself wanting to cover up a bit more… I don’t go out in turtle necks and sweatpants 24/7 by any means 😂 but I think it all just comes down to what you wanna wear, we’re all still young so why not have options for yourself?

Dress how you want! 💓

I’m wearing more midi skirts now im 25 and I chopped all my hair off after having my son because it felt more mumsy but now he’s almost 6 months I’m finding my style again

Avatar

I dress like Adam Sandler 🧍🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Avatar

I still wear the same clothes from before

Avatar

My style before, during, and currently with a 4 month old has been basically Adam Sandler. Once I can afford to, I’m getting new clothes and I’m going for a goth style, as that’s how I’ve always wanted to dress but never been allowed to.

Idc anymore. I still wear my pregnancy clothes bc they're comfy. And dresses for church but easy access to boob bc I breastfeed lolol.

Avatar

Like Adam Sandler 🙃

Im 24 and never found my style and still haven’t. But if one things changed, I have changed in the way I dress. Everything is high rise (usually leggings) and shirts that aren’t too tight. I don’t like showing off much but that’s me personally, not so much to do if I was a mom. I feel like if I liked that style, I’d wear it. I wouldn’t show off a ton like a ton of cleavage (no not some. I mean a LOT) or bum hanging out but that’s me personally. I think everyone has different styles and should embrace it. Motherhood consumes you, pls remember who you are outside of just being a mom ❤️

I changed how I dressed but you shouldn’t (unless you want to) having a baby changes you enough, I don’t know who I am outside of being a mother anymore hold on to some of you

Avatar

I dress how I’m comfortable dressing & I am still always a mom under them clothes. 🫶🏼

if your clothes are at risk of being ruined by a toddler & that bugs you, then maybe retire some pieces until your kid is older, but realistically, if your comfy & confident in what you wanna wear, wear it.
