Amen on this and I feel that I look less like a cow in pants right now being pregnant with big ol' swollen ankles...... also can't shave my legs...ect..

Are you ladies of the opinion you must dress up to attend a church service?

I think everyone would agree that its tradition, and not any sort of heaven or hell issue! However, this is one tradition that has some good connotations. I think its teaching my children the principle of giving their best to God, when I say, "Wear your best when you go to worship!" Right along with...be your best, do your best, look your best...I was brought up with...do everything as unto the Lord!
I'm not anti-casual wear...I love to wear sandals in the summertime! And NO hose, TYVM...but...on the other hand...some folks interpret "casual" as "sloppy", and I hate messy, overly-casual clothing. (For anything except fishing!)

Girl, I can shave my legs with my eyes closed! LOL!!!! I understand, though...the flamingo stance is difficult to accomplish when you're big and pregnant! 
Nevertheless, I never missed shaving. Especially the last month...I was afraid I would go into labor and not have time to shave before getting to the hospital...  (food for thought)

Me too. I remember those days well. And once I was in and wreck and was knocked out. I remember that when I woke up, after I realized I was in the hospital and that I was injured, one of the first things that went through my mind was, "Did I shave my legs today?" HOW STUPID!!
