On maternity clothes

One thing in particular makes me realize how many years have passed since I first came to work at my current job, and how many years have passed for almost everybody who works here. Nobody is now wearing maternity clothes. For the first 10 years or so, there was always somebody who was pregnant. We didn't always know it at the time, but later on it'd be announced that so and so was going to have a baby. There was a lot of overlap. Now, we do have a few young women working here, but not in the same numbers, and we haven't had a baby born to anyone in the office for many years.
