Another Clothes Question

Some of the maternity pants I've bought so far say "grow with you" or "0-9 months". Are they really going to fit me in August? I'm afraid come July and August, fall stuff will be in the stores. How does that work?

Re: Another Clothes Question

I have a couple of pairs of pants with the tabs on the inside, so you can let the waist out as you get bigger.....

I mostly wore the same pants from the beginning to end. It was the shirts that I had a problem with. I found towards the end that the shirts would not cover my gigantic belly and it poked out on the bottom. Chat Icon Not too attractive when you have stretch marks that are hideous!

I have this same problem. The pants I bought are all elastic at the waist so they all still fit, albeit snugger than they did 4 months ago. The tops are getting small though. I did just buy a pair of those pants with the expanding button waist from JCPenney and at 35 weeks, the waist does fit and is not too tight. I got them because I figured they would fit now and then will still be useful for a bit after the baby is born, as I can tighten the waist but it still won't be my regular waist size.

Re: Another Clothes Question

Do the pants have panels in them? For me, I wore pants with pannels from the middle of my 1st trimester on. They were more comfortable for me. I was able to wear the same pants from the beginning all the way until about a week ago - when I "popped" again and had to buy a couple pairs in the next size up.

If you find a pair you like a lot, I would buy them in a bigger size and keep the receipt with them. If you end up not wearing them, return them and get the $$ or a store credit back.

Re: Another Clothes Question

Certain pants are fitting from beginning to end, but not all. Unfortunately, it's really a trial and error sort of thing and you don't find out until you get further along.
