I also wondered if I was alone on having a belly bump. I have a hard time finding clothes that fit with out making my stomach bigger than it is. It is nice to know i'm not alone and someone else thinks there should be a clothing line.

Clothing line-- YES!!! Nice long shirts to cover the tummy but don't look like maternity shirts. Pants with stretchy waist band for those bad days... and pants that aren't so long you have to roll them up several times. I am on the short side of life-- Regular people clothes swallow me up.

I have been seriously considering this concept, but I have no idea how to even go about starting it up. I have some fashion sense and did take a few fashion design classes many years ago, but it is way too big a project to know where to begin. There are soooo many CF issues and devices that cause such hardships on fashionistas! LOL. Wouldn't it be great if we could get a real designer interested? And then we could be the committee to offer feedback and trial the clothes <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0">

PS: Maybe Shine wants to tackle this project. She is the originator of the idea, and it is a very good idea. How about it Shine?!

Yoga pants work well for Emily... those 'folded over' wide waistbands are really good, since she is so thin through the hips she needs something that will stay up and those work good without having a tight, constricting elastic band around her middle. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> Like many of you mentioned, her belly is the 'hard' kind and really protrudes sometimes, to the point where jeans that fit her some days (that she doesn't even have to unbutton to pull on) can't even zip up other days... yet the rest of her is so bony.

Plus the slimmer upper leg and flared lower leg of those pants somehow manage to make her look a little taller.
