#36: The best $20 sweatpants for IVF bloat
Plus our first bonus pod episode is here đ
Happy Friday! Weâre SO excited to share that our first bonus episode is now live on Spotify and it clocks in at just under 90 minutes (weâre not the most succinct when it comes to airing our IVF woes đ). These episodes are exclusively available to subscribers via Spotify and are entirely unedited/uncut. Think of it as your opportunity to be a fly on the wall to all our behind-the-scenes banter. You can sign up for a subscription and listen here:
Housekeeping: Last week, we announced paid subscriptions on Substack, but the Spotify integration got complicated, so weâre keeping all newsletter content free. The paid option is still available on Substack if youâd like to support FriedEggs and our work, but bonus episodes are available by subscribing on Spotify for $5/month (note that your $5 supports the podcast, not Spotify).
đď¸ What weâre wearing: sweatpants, duh
We donât care that the weather is getting warmer. Crank that AC and let us live in our oversized fleece. Seriously. Anyone going through IVF knows: the jeans get packed away. And the shorts? Well, just, no.
Since we both take sweatpants matters very seriously and a too-tight leg cuff is enough to send us over the edge when weâre riding waves of estrogen, we want to share our tried-and-true, tested, and most-loved sweatpant brands with you all. Bookmark them for the next time you need some cozies.
These classic jogger sweatpants are high-waisted, super soft and only $20. Love that they come in so many colors and different height options too.
These wide-leg sweatpants donât have cuffs if you prefer breeze and flow. And they are only $20.
These mid-weight sweatpant joggers have a thick waistband and are perfect for colder weather (and cold doctorsâ offices).
If organic fabric is important to you, Pact is superior in quality and has bundle options (because we need more pairs!).
These easy barrel pants arenât sweats, but they are as comfortable as sweats and perfect for when we have a meeting or need to look presentable despite the IVF bloat. Currently more than 50% off.
Another more elevated sweatpants option for when you need to go to the office.
