Is it totally wrong that

I am entertaining the idea of maternity pants at only 8 weeks? I just can't help but think how much more comfortable I'd be! (it helps in my justification that I have to do stomach shots of Lovenox so I have painful bruises that hurt to have pressure (reg pants) on them).

Re: Is it totally wrong that

  • no, be as comfy as you can, soon no matter what you do you wont be comfy :)
  • I agree, be comfy.  I started around 8-9 weeks b/c I had bought a pair early and realized I was in love with them.  Bella bands were fine but not as comfy.  I had a lot of bloat from IVF and was showing early so I did what worked for me.  I'd say I was in all maternity by 12 weeks for sure.

  • I was in them around this time...or my regular pants totally unbottoned wtih a bella band.  And I wondered why my 8th graders were already whispering and speculating about a pregnancy last year!! 

    Be comfortable - that's my #1 rule. 

  • I agree, be comfortable, I was in mat pants only at 10 weeks :)

  • I have been wearing maternity pants since i was 8 weeks as well.  They were just soooo much more comfortable for me.

     On a different note, i too have MTHFR!!  Granted i do not have to do the needles in my stomach bc i don't have the double gene mutation, but i am supposed to take the baby aspirin and 4 mg of folic acid, in addition to my daily prenatal.  I have noticed that when i take my extra folic acid, i just end up getting sick.  I am now 12 weeks, and found out at 8 weeks about the mutation.  Have you found any helpful suggestions to try to keep it all down.  I mean i just see no point in taking the extra folic, when i'm going to 1) give up the food that i just ate that the babies need 2) and also give up the pills.

     Sorry to post a different issue on your board, i have never seen or read about anyone else having this...and i'm new, so i don't know how to contact you directly!!!

     Thanks!!
