No weight gain, but my pants are about to explode!!

Is that even possible? I am starting to think I am going crazy or that my pants are shrinking....

No ur definitely not crazy. I have an obvious bump and obviously larger boobs yer I have no gained any weight and I am 16 weeks. So I'm in the same boat as u!

Same here, and I have only gained 1-2 pounds.

I wore maternity jeans for the 1st time when we went out for dinner last night.  They were so comfy.

I have only gained 4 lbs, but have been in mat pants for probably 6 weeks.  Things are shifting around inside.

Not crazy. I was in the same boat at your stage and broke down and got a couple pairs of maternity pants. SO much more comfortable. Even without weight gain, things are shifting around. Don't torture yourself any longer. Go get some comfortable pants! :-)

I've only gained 1.5 pounds, yet I haven't been able to button my pants for 5 weeks.  Strange!

Well, at least I am not the only one. Maybe I should start wearing maternity jeans too, or at least the Bella band

I have actually lost a few pounds since getting pregnant! But haven't been able to wear regular pants for a while. I am hoping this is less weight I will have to loose later on

Everything is shifting around... you also have to consider what is giong down and/or coming back up. I had M/S for the first tri, now I have food adversions- as I am not little I know the baby is not starving to death plus I am eating somethings thoughout the day.

Nope, not crazy. I am still down 5 lbs or so but my boobs are huge and my pants are tight.

I haven't gained an ounce but I feel like I am about to burst out of my jeans that were once too big. I don't get it. The doctor wasn't alarmed by my lack of weight gain so I am not going to fret, I just wish I could get an explanation as to why my pants are so dang tight.

Last time I went in I hadn't gained any weight, however, my pants have been tight since about week 8 and at week 12-ish I bought maternity pants and have been living in them. You are definitely not alone! 

UndecidedChange

I've gained 16 lbs.  No real belly yet, but definitely bigger boobs, ass, thighs.  Sigh.

I'm down 8 pounds and I can only comfortaby fit into one pair.  I definitely have a belly, but I feel as though I just look fat, not pregnant yet.

Count me in. My weight is only up a couple of pounds, but jeans that I've worn at a heaver weight than this aren't button-able. My bella band and I are becoming very good friends.
