Tell them to back off. Seriously. I am angry on your behalf, and if anyone said that to me, I'd hand them their heads.</p> <p>Do whatever is most comfortable for you, and enjoy your precious baby boy.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275418 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 15:01:02 +0000 Anonymous 1275418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tell everyone to kindly back off and wear what's comfortable for your healing body?&nbsp;Sheesh, you had the baby literally a week ago. This just makes me rage on your behalf.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275412 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 14:53:16 +0000 Aziraphale 1275412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations on your new baby!</p> <p>Good advice here about checking out the tips for adorable apples. I'd like to add this: loose linen knit tops are the ticket. Linen knits tend to drape better than cotton -- they have a little more weight and swing -- and glide over the body rather than cling, and they don't look boxy. I've seen quite a few linen blends this season, too, which cuts down on creasing. (But truth be told, I don't have too much trouble with 100% linen knit tops and creasing). And "fluid fit" (read: loose) tops are everywhere this season. You're in luck!&nbsp;</p> <p>I agree with Aquamarine about avoiding Empire waist tops. They scream pregnancy.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275284 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 11:55:13 +0000 Aquamarine 1275284@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>People can be so rude...ugh! Empire tops, I think, can also contribute to the pregnancy look. I would size up on the drapey styles that are so prevalent now. And be patient...your tummy will shrink in the next few weeks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275280 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 11:46:58 +0000 Ornella 1275280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Shaz,</p> <p>Congratulations on your baby boy.</p> <p>Advice for dressing an apple body shape (excellent blog post <b><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/2014/02/13/how-to-dress-the-apple-body-type-2014/">here</a></b>)&nbsp;is probably &nbsp;a good route for you.</p> <p>I would also consider preparing a few phrases that will show the other side in a polite, yet non-negotiable manner that their comments are unwelcome and tasteless. There are plenty of topics on the forum on that subject, if you have time.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275253 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:56:53 +0000 Anonymous 1275253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice to see you again Shaz! Congratulations on your new baby!</p> <p>I found tops that skimmed were the best after having a baby. Empire just made me feel still pregnant. I wore a lot of tank tops with a fluid shirt or button down over top.</p> <p>Check out Angie's suggestions for Adorable Apples, and I think you will find some help there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/best-tops-to-hide-a-mushy-post-baby-tummy#post-1275244 Wed, 11 Jun 2014 10:38:35 +0000 shaz 1275244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi i had a little baby boy a week ago and sick of getting comments if there is another baby still in there. I was wondering if anyone had tips on tops that hide a tum but not boxy or t shirt&nbsp;looking as my top half is larger then my bottom half and can so easily look blocky and manly as im 5"9 tall&nbsp;i was a rectangle pre pregnancy and my bottom half is still pretty much the same just with the over flow from the waist upwards thanks everyone&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
