hi dancers...

so as the weeks tick by toward 37, and i continue to watch my belly stretch bigger than it ever got to in my first pregnancy (non-preemie-size second baby this time, hurray!!!!), i am trying to lower my expectation of bouncing instantly back to a fairly cute tummy like i pretty much did the first time around. we'll see how things look when the dust settles, but i am realizing i need to allow for more stretch marks and stretched-out places on my skin than last time... i figure the more of an ultra-realist/slight pessimist i am right now, any bouncing back that does take place will be a lovely surprise!

assuming the "worst," which is really not even too bad anyway - especially since i only do this for fun, it won't affect my career! - what are your favorite sources for body stockings, belly nets, covers, etc? i'm short waisted and hourglass shaped, so would like to go with something form-fitting, rather than a big beaded or coined drape that would hide my waist once i actually get it back. love the idea of sheer net with beads and sparklies. got links/pics to inspire me that i can still wear bedlah, whatever this kid does to me?

(otoh, if the best case scenario happens, i'm totally gonna pierce my navel once it reestablishes its rightful place....)
