To be nearly naked and in full view and not care?

Currently 37 weeks pregnant, sporting a very big belly and very big boobs and no matter what I wear I feel really, really uncomfortable. Everything feels so tight and restrictive - bras are unbearable and even my maternity jeans and leggings are leaving waistband imprint marks across my stomach because of how tight they now are.

As a result, whenever I come home I put the heating on, wait for the house to warm up a little and then I strip off down to just my huge sized granny knickers and then happily spend my evening like this Grin

Due to the layout of our estate I know that when I'm in the kitchen (nearly naked cooking or nearly naked washing up for example) people can undoubtedly see me - but I just don't care!! If people can't cope with seeing a heavily pregnant women in just a pair of pants then it's not my problem Grin

I was telling my sister about it earlier and she was Gobsmacked and said I really shouldn't be doing it so as not to offend anyone - she said some people don't like the look of pregnant women, let alone ones with their bump and boobs hanging out!

AIBU though to just not care??
I just want to be semi-naked and comfortable in my own house!!!

I'm a bit concerned about enjoying being semi-naked so much though Grin

I am also 37wks and feeling similar, OP. I just wear a dressing gown in the house now, everything else is too small and/or uncomfortable. Not brave enough to cook topless though Grin

Read The Jigsaw Man by Paul Britton and you'll be fully clothed in seconds of finishing it.

On the rare occasions I get my flat share to myself I get in a nice bath leave my bedroom door open n the bathroom door. Music on and chill in a bath. Get put dry get into some underwear n maybe a dress n chillax doing cleaning possibly even singing.

Have you tried maxi dresses. I lived n died in them in the late stages of my pregnancy and indoors didn't wear a bra with them (no one could see anyway if the popped in)

Yanbu.

I spent the last few months of my pregnancy completely starkers too. I had obstetric cholestasis and was so itchy that wearing anything was torture. It was also bang in the middle of that fucking heat wave we had last summer (I don't tolerate heat well at the best of times but I swear last summer, being heavily pregnant with a heart condition and OC, nearly killed me).

No idea what the people in the flats opposite thought about it all though and tbh, I really could not have cared less by that point. Full support from me! Do whatever it takes to feel comfortable.

Hahahaha naked cooking Grin probably best if you don't fry anything though Wink
I like being naked too but with 3 kids I have to restrict it to the bathroom and my bedroom Sad my son is a bit too old for me to be walking about in the nude.
