Do we dare wear short shorts....?

So shoppping for maternity clothes pretty much sucks. Basically you get 4 size choices (S, M, L & XL) -- this doesnt offer a lot of customization. Then you either get to pick from either tent like dresses & shirts to jeans that constantly fall down & tank tops with rouched sides. Did I mention that the vast majority of shirts have sleeves -- this doesnt make a whole lot of sense to me since its freaking hot being pregnant. I want tank tops damnit. Im guessing this is because pregnant women are subject to those oh so hot "fat arms" - but really I dont care. Ok, I care if my arms get fat, but I would still wear a freakin tank top. Let's move on to shorts....apparently you have limited options here as well - most are capris. Well, capris are basically like wearing jeans in my opinion and are also too hot. Then we move up to those bermuda shorts - listen, my huge hips (which Im hoping I become thankful for when trying to get this baby out of me) have never looked good in bermudas and add in the current fatness, it definately isnt happening.
Then we have the dreaded regular shorts with the FIVE to seven inch inseam. UHM What the heck is that about?! Why do I need to wear shorts that come down to my mid-thigh? So I was shopping in like the fourth & final store I could find that actually sold maternity clothes & was whining to the sales girl about the lack of shorter shorts....then I was like "I mean seriously these are like Mom shorts or something" And then the sales girl chuckled. And then it hit me.....I'M GOING TO BE SOMEONE'S MOM! Crap. Please dont make me wear the mom shorts. Please......
The search continues.....
