new to the bump

Meischa0921

Hey there gals, I'm new to the bump and new to becoming a mom...this will be our first.  We had our big u/s last night and found out that we're having a boy!  We also found out that everything looks great and the baby is really healthy which is wonderful!  I'm wondering if it's normal that while I'm showing and have gained 23 lbs, I can still fit in my pre-baby jeans?  It seems like all my weight is coming to baby and chest...is this the same for anyone else?

Thanks,

Tami

Welcome and congrats on your baby boy. Everyones weight is different and shows different. Some women start gettting maternity clothes really early others dont' have too. I have not bought one item that is maternity as of yet.

Well that's good to know because when the nurse told me that i've already gained 23 lbs my DH asked where the heck it all went?  lol...maybe I'll get to wear my size 8's for the duration!

Could be possible, I'm not sure. I'ma first timer here. I wouldn't think that it would work that way once you get to your 7-9 months. My sister says she only went up 2 normal pant sizes and jsut bought the low cut so she never bought the maternity. Just whatever is comfy is all that matters to me.
