The Adams Fambam: Collab with PinkBlush!

I'm just over five months postpartum and for some reason I feel like I'm supposed to have bounced back already. My body is supposed to be that of my pre pregnancy body and yet it's not. I've still got twelve pounds (wahhh) clinging to me, no matter what I do. My belly sags more than it ever did and it's still totally squishy. I have stretch marks on top of my preexisting stretch marks, running down my legs, and as much as I want to find the beauty in those, I often am my own worst critic. The transition from my pregnant body to my postpartum body has been SO much harder this time which is so silly since I've been through this before, but my body is taking a lot longer to "bounce back" than it did with David! I primarily rock plain old tees and shorts and am NOT one to find dresses I actually like in this stage of life. However I received this PinkBlush dress in the mail a few days ago and oh my goodness you guys, I love it.

I've known that PinkBlush carries maternity clothes and dresses but I honestly had NO idea that they also carry women's clothing. And not just boring women's clothing either, cute affordable women's clothing that really is totally perfect for that transitional period from pregnancy to postpartum. I love online shopping but if I'm being honest, there's been several times where I've ordered things (dresses specifically), and when they show up they look TOTALLY different than they did online! I mean night and day. Which is the worst! It's such a bummer to get something in the mail that you've been waiting for and to not like it!

I was so excited when this showed up and looked the same as it did online AND fit the same as it looked online! I really love this dress. I love the way it looks on, I love the way it looks in photos (which, for some reason half the time those two don't seem to match up! why is that?! I digress), and I love how stinking comfortable + breathable it is. It's light and airy and I could comfortably wear it on this 87 degree day. It's long enough to bend down and help David in or scoop Eden up, which is a MUST when that's what your day consists of. Most of the time wearing a dress when we're out with the kids just isn't practical, finding one that's comfortable enough while also nursing friendly and isn't going to show too much when I bend down is really hard! We went to a wedding just recently and as much as I loved the dress I had, I had to get half naked to nurse in it. I wish I'd had this dress for that wedding because it actually IS something I can wear and be "mom" in while also being a step up from my usual tees ;)

Without further ado, here are way too many pictures! Thanks to my fantastic hubs for being my photographer for these!
