Eureka

You know what would be really helpful? The ability to post reviews on the garments, that way people could get a realistic idea of which garments would be a better fit for them. For example, just yesterday I decided to buy 2 different one-piece garments online. I personally do not know anyone who wears the one-piece, but I though that I might give them a try considering how uncomfortable the two-piece bottoms are for me. My concern is that because there are only 3 different fabrics offered in the one-piece, and because I can't check them out in person at the Distribution Center, that they are not going to work out. It would be nice to be able to read what other people have to say about them to help me decide if it is a worthwhile purchase. I would also guess it would help the Church, because they could see in real time what peoples experiences were with the given fabrics and cuts. I really have a hard time posting frustrations about certain areas that the Church may be lacking just because of the backlash I will inevitably get. I know most of you are wonderful and have great suggestions and thoughts, but I also know that as soon as someone raises concerns or frustrations they are often labeled as not being as faithful or something. Thank you for everyone who has been so kind, its nice to be able to vent a little and not get ridiculed.

thanks for all your replies. I guess I just wish that the Church would consider revamping their garments again but consider what is actually comfortable. Since having 3 babies I find the elastic around my midsection is super uncomfortable. If I choose a size that is bigger though I'm constantly having the garments slip down. I've tried multiple different styles but I can't seem to find anything that works. I have never had this problem with regular underwear (probably because I have a never ending supply of styles and fabrics to choose from unlike the garments.

I went through the temple just before getting married when I was 25. I didn't feel ready before that, so I wasn't really pursuing going through until getting engaged. Part of the reason for me not wanting to go through was wearing the garments. I understood the reason for wearing them, I was just not interested in doing it myself (to be honest, I really liked my cute panties and didn't want to switch to the unattractive garment). I have always had a testimony of the gospel, have always gone to church and held callings, I just wasn't in a place where I wanted to make that covenant with God. When I got engaged I knew I wanted to get married in the temple, so I prepared myself as best I could and received my endowment. From day 1 wearing garments was something I never enjoyed and often found extremely uncomfortable. I did it though, I have been very good about keeping them on. I really dislike them though. They are uncomfortable, unattractive, hot, and they never seem to stay put so I'm constantly adjusting them. How do you all deal with this (or am I the only one that really dislikes the garments?). I want to keep my covenants and wear the garments, but I also want to have a good relationship with them and not find them so inconvenient.
