how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

I'm 6 weeks and can't imagine putting on anything other than sweatpants Chat Icon I guess it helps that I'm unemployed right now and I don't have to get "dressed" up everyday......I've been feeling sooooo bloated!!!

luckily I'll be getting hand me down maternity clothes from my sis & SIL, but I was just curious how far along everyone was when they started wearing maternity clothes.

Re: how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

honestly - at about 10 weeks - i was uncomfortable. I was wearing shorts - and that's the ONLY reason i was okay...because they were stretchier...

i went into maternity pants around week 13...and now they are all i wear...

I think I was around 14 weeks. Probably could have used them a little earlier though.
It's normal to be bloated in the early stages. The bloat will most likely go down and you'll find that you look smaller at say 10 weeks than you did at 6 weeks.

Maternity pants...about 9 or 10 weeks and not exclusively since it was summer and could wear some looser fitting capris etc.

Shirts.. I still only own a handful of them at 38 weeks. I just dont like the way they fit on me.

I'm 25 weeks today and was still able to get into a pair of my jeans. But with the holidays I think today may have been the last day!

I'm almost 16 weeks and still comfortably in regular clothes, and not showing at all. I'm thinking maybe another month?

Re: how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

I bought my first pair of jeans at 10 weeks for my really bloated days. I was in maternity pants full time by 13 weeks. I didn't start wearing the shirts until 16 weeks.

Re: how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

I am a little over 8 weeks and the only thing I am having trouble with is buttoning the top button of my jeans...I use the old rubberband trick. I see that so many girls were in maternity clothes at 10, 11 weeks...I feel far behind...I hope I catch up soon.

Re: how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

I started with maternity pants around week 15... could still button my own pants week 12, just hated the bella band.. I started wearing maternity pants exclusively around 20 weeks.. it also depends on where you wear your pants.. im not a low rise girl.. so mine wouldnt last much longer..

I was bloated and uncomfortable in my normal jeans at about 11 weeks. I got my first pair of maternity jeans and loose pjs at 12.5 weeks. I didnt even gain any weight yet...in fact I lost 6 pounds from being sick. I think my hips expanded.Chat Icon

Re: how many weeks were you when you started wearing maternity clothes?

i can't button my jeans, but they're saggy in my butt/thighs. i've been pretty sick, so i'm dropping weight everywhere except my gut! I'm either going to stop wearing my jeans, or try and get a bella band
