2nd-time moms how early for maternity clothes?
So, I'm only 9 1/2 weeks, but nothing is fitting. The belly is totally making an appearance (a co-worker actually asked me if I was preggo ). I can't bring myself to put on maternity clothes yet, but even the Bella Band is not really cutting it. When did you start with maternity? I think I was like 20 weeks before I wore maternity clothes the first time.

Re: 2nd-time moms how early for maternity clothes?
i think im at the same stage with my 3rd as i was with my 2nd im 12 weeks and in the "unbuttoned" stage. I wear longer shirts and my pants are always unbuttoned. Ill probably cave and whip out the maternity crates this weekend- i know ill be much more comfortable.
You should be comfy...put on those maternity clothes. Everyone grows differently so its hard to compare yourself to someone else.

Re: 2nd-time moms how early for maternity clothes?
probably around 8-10 weeks. i could not hide this pregnancy at all (and wanted to because my ultrascreen came back questionable), and people weren't asking, they were assuming and spreading the word at a party when i was 3 months. 
from about months 2-5 i looked like i was measuring about 2 months ahead, only now to i feel like i'm somewhat appropriate for my size coming on 26 weeks.

Stupid early. Really by 6w I was in my "big" clothes and by 9w I was in my "real waist" Gap maternity jeans.

Re: 2nd-time moms how early for maternity clothes?
Really strange but I am smaller with this child then my DD. I was out of my own clothes(at least anything that buttoned) by 9 weeks with DD, now at 15 weeks I am STILL in all my regular clothes- most jeans and shorts with the bella band.
I am convinced its a boy since I am carrying so differently.

I hate maternity clothes so I bought plus size clothing with stretchy waste bands from Fashion Bug and Kohls but I started having to do that at around 10 wks or so also

This is exactly the same thing that I experienced - now at 17 weeks I am in maternity. My regular clothes are too small, but the maternity keeps falling down  With DD I was definitely in maternity much earlier.

Get out those maternity clothes! It doesn't matter how far along you are, you need to be comfy.
I'm 15 weeks and in some maternity clothes & some regular clothes. I'm carrying surprisingly small for my second. Using the bella band too.
