When will you start wearing maternity clothes?
With DS, I outgrew my pants around 12wks but wore regular shirts for quite some time. Hoping to hold out as long as possible, but stretchy clothes are absolutely wonderful!

Well, i've kind of yo-yo'd on and off weight watchers, so i have several different sizes to go through.
I have retired my 4's and some of my 6's. I have some 8's and 10's, and maybe a 12, to go through before i buy any maternity clothes. Unless I grow funny and they won't fit anyways!
But i've been coming straight home and jumping into sweatpants!!
I have been wearing them for the past few days....more comfy! I didn't wear maternity shirts with ds#1 until about 4 months...but jeans were immediately. DS#2...I started wearing maternity clothes about 12 wks. This one...yeah, am already. I look like I should be 5 months already! LOL! So much for keeping it hush hush!
I've just been wearing my jeans unbuttoned and more roomy shirts. My maternity wardrobe is mostly summer stuff and it's too cold still for most of it. And a lot of it is ugly

I just wear bigger clothes, I don't ever wear pants just skirts/shirts, and dresses. Some of my skirts are a little tight right now but I just push them lower on my belly
I already am, I pop out super fast this is my 11th pregnancy, 4th baby I have an unnaturally large uturus. I can get away with bigger shits but they are not as flattering as maturnity ones, depends on my mood really. Right now im wearing A lot of Old navy maternity tank tops with a XL zipper hoodie and the non panel maternity jeans, when I get bigger I will wear the panel ones. I got a set of 33 items of criagslist for $50 I got lucky they are super nice, a few things are old school so I just wear them around the house

So far Im still wearing my regular clothes comfortably except for in the breast area. Im sure this will change rather quickly in the next few weeks. I can notice my bump but I doubt its noticable to anyone else but me.

The day you deliver, outside will be sunny. Your baby will arrive in wee hours of the morning .
After a labor lasting approximately 8 hours, your child, a boy, will be born. Your baby will weigh about 8 pounds, 6 ounces, and will be 19-1/2 inches long. This child will have dark brown eyes and a lot of hair.
I tried to take my maternity clothes out, but w/dd I weighed less than what I am now so I have some shopping to do for pants. I can still fit into my clothes for now though.
I got rid of all my maternity clothes because I was supposed to be finished. I'll have to start shopping. I'm trying to hold off until the weather gets warmer.
I've retired my size 2's already. 6's fit unbuttoned, 8's fit buttoned but they are not comfy at all, so I leave them undone
All my shirts fit fine, I just look like a fat person!
I'm still squeezing myself into my post pregnancy jeans that I bought that were a size or two bigger than the size I was before I had DD. I can't wait to tell people though, b/c then I'll definitely be busting out my maternity clothes. And since I'll be pregnant more so in the summer/early fall this time I will definitely need some shorts and tank tops for the hot Texas summers. I'm looking forward to shopping for new maternity clothes too. When I'm at home I bang around in sweats or pj pants and a loose t-shirt for now. I feel like I'm already showing. Maybe I'm crazy! With DD I lost all but about 10 Lbs, then this winter I packed on a few extra pounds, so I'm about 20 lbs more than I'd like right now so I'm not sure i'm just feeling fat or if I really could be starting to pop out sooner this time.
with dd being 4 months i'm still kinda lingering in mat clothes anyway. they are so comfy. So since im pregnant the same exact time as last year i still have some clothes. I'm just hoping i don't get as big this time. So i'm in mat clothes already here to. I just look chunky though.
I was lucky and didn't have to buy any new clothes until half way last time. Am assuming I"ll show earlier this time, and are hoping to re-use some of my clothes from last year - different seasons though. I'm really early on at the moment, and don't expect to have to change my clothes for a while. Bras will be the first thing, and as I wear low cut trousers they should last a while. A few new t-shirts and I'll hopefully get out of it relatively expense free. I only working two days a week so I am grateful to not need a full work wardrobe!
I've worn maternity jeans a couple of times, and a couple of shirts. I can still fit into most of my jeans, they're just a little tight and uncomfortable sometimes. Most of my maternity clothes from my DS were for colder weather, so I've already started buying some summer stuff.
