CommuterMom: Fashion Challenged

Whose body is this anyway? Nobody told me that all of the rumors about how much your body changes after having a baby are really true. It took me 8 months to finally find pants that would fit for more than one week. And we won’t even discuss how many times I’ve had to go to the intimates department to be “re-measured.”

What am I dreading most? Warm weather. I don’t really like to wear shorts a lot, but now I don’t know if I can even wear a short skirt…I have calluses on my knees. CommuterGirl is crawling everywhere, “running” on all fours, I find myself crawling all over the house — playing peek-a-boo, climbing the stairs after her, trying to get the ball she threw “to” me. Look for the mother that wears nothing but capris even when it is 115 degrees outside, and you’ll know it’s me.
