Battle Scar

Last Wednesday I took a tumble in streets of Chinatown- nothing was broken and thanks to several hours on a fetal monitor and an ultrasound I know that my baby is fine.  While my friends and family think I should be contained to a bubble for the remainder of my pregnancy, I have assured them I will be more careful from now on.

The next day I felt sore and rather discombobulated so I decided to wear one of my favorite dresses.  Under normal circumstances this dress is a great length, but pregnancy has made it a bit short on me; luckily thanks to inconsistent New England weather, it was on the chilly side so I could wear tights.  Otherwise in terms of fit this dress is perfect for pregnancy because because it has an empire waist with soft shirring, and the fabric is a nice comfortable stretch cotton. 

These are on of my favorite pairs of shoes, in fact this is my second pair of them because I wore out my other ones so quickly.  Unfortunately, they are not long for this pregnancy world because they are difficult to break in- my old ones required several weeks of dedication.  I fear that my feet will soon swell to a larger size than my oxfords can contain, and at this point the only comfortable way to wear them is with tights, so I pray for more chilly (but still sunny) days!
