Maternity Clothes: Yes or No?

I don't know if people know this but I HATE spending money on myself.  I am so cheap and/or tight that I swear diamonds could fall out of my behind when I walk down the street.  I don't like the time it takes to shop, I really dislike trying on clothes, and I can always think of something better I can do with the money I was going to spend. 

Well-I came to a point the other day where I decided I needed to purchase myself a few maternity clothing items.  I haven't purchased anything new (maternity wise) since I was pregnant with Tristan and he is now 6.  Looking thru my maternity clothes a lot of them were from 2000 and I didn't realize how "old" the fashions make me look.  I have some ugly maternity gear.  I pulled out my prego pants and have 1 pair of full length and a pair of capris---that's it.  I actually had another pair, but I must have purchased a size too big becuase I had safety pins all over the waistband.  I broke down and went to Old Navy Maternity.com----I found a few really cute items.  But guess what---I didn't pay full price; HECK NO!!!!  Everything I purchased was on clearance, I had a 15% off coupon on top of that (for each item), AND a free shipping coupon.  Now-I'm patiently waiting by my door for my box of much needed maternity wear and I hope they fit.

Don't worry--I won't be posting any photos of myself on my blog and/or facebook because unfortanetly I'm not one of those women who are cute pregnant.  ;-)
