2nd Trimester

introduction and maternity clothes question??

I am almost in the second tri! Yaaaay! I am guessing I will "know" most of you from 1st tri and SAL, but wanted to officially introduce myself.

Also, any of you early 2nd tri girls wearing maternity pants yet???  I am feeling so big already...... probably the bloat since my uterus is only about the size of a grapefruit, right??  But my regulars jeans/pants are already tight and a bit uncomfortable!!

Re: introduction and maternity clothes question??

  • I have been in maternity pants since about week 9 or 10!  Now I have dropped some weight but I'm still wearing them. Also just got a Bella Band yesterday to wear with my regular jeans & to hold up some of hte too big maternity jeans.

  • I'm going out tomorrow to buy some pants.  I've been busting out of my regular pants for weeks now and I'm tired of being uncomfortable!  We're going to need them at one point or another anyway, so why not be comfy now, right?
  • I just started wearing maternity jeans and shirts last week ... before that, I had just been wearing my bella band and regular shirts a size larger and primarily in stretchy material. I think in general people just start wearing them when their regular clothing start to be a "challenge" ... when they start to feel uncomfortable ...
  • I really didn't care for belly bands.  Around wk 12 I started maternity jeans just for comfort... then by 16 I was always in them... Around 20 I needed them.
  • This is my second and I've been wearing maternity pants (and some shirts) since week 7.

  • LOL!  I am all for comfort.  I started wearing maternity pants w/ DD1 at 7 weeks!  I have a few jeans a size bigger that still fit under my belly, but I am mostly in maternity.
  • With my first pregnancy I Didn't wear maternity clothes until I was about 61/2 months (don't remember what week) This time I already have a bump and just had to start wearing them at about 14 1/2 weeks! I still fit into my regular jeans but they are so tight and uncomfortable! I love my maternity clothes, they are so comfy!

  • Welcome over! I'm still wearing my Bella Band with jeans (maternity jeans are still too baggy) and yesterday I bought some maternity tops since my non-maternity shirts are starting to get a little short.
  • OMG I was wearing maternity pants by 9 weeks!
