23 WEEK BUMPDATE + THE COMFIEST T-SHIRT DRESS FOR PREGNANCY AND BEYOND

I can’t believe we’re already into June! This late September baby will be here before we know it and it’s definitely starting to feel real between my growing bump and the infant care class we took this past weekend. A few of you have asked how I’m feeling (so sweet of you!) and thankfully the second trimester has been much smoother sailing than my first trimester (kidney stones and last week’s cold notwithstanding). I’m still taking nausea medication for hyperemesis, but I’ve only thrown up a handful of times in the past couple months compared to hardly keeping food down for the first three. ?? I finally have some energy back and am overall feeling pretty good! I’ll be writing a second trimester recap in a few weeks but I’ve been loving feeling the baby kick (and punch and roll and booty shake!) — it never ceases to amaze me that my body is home to a such an active little baby boy! It could also be that we’ve finally had some solid spring weather in Connecticut but either way I’m grateful to be feeling much more like myself these days!

Apologies in advance if my blog becomes a love letter to t-shirt dresses (ahem) for the remainder of my pregnancy, but I promise this t-shirt dress is a must-have whether you’re expecting or not. I fell in love with the color online and was thrilled when it arrived because it’s officially the softest, comfiest thing in my summer maternity arsenal. I would 100% have worn this before getting pregnant and will 100% wear it again post-baby — obviously the ideal kind of maternity purchase! It runs large (I’m wearing the XS and you can see I have quite the bump at 23 weeks!) but you could definitely add a belt like this one if you prefer a more tailored fit.
