1st Trimester
What are you wearing? :)
This bloat is getting out of control. I can still suck most of it in but when I'm relaxed I've got a nice little beer gut. I'm petie (5'2" and about 125lbs- up about 3 lbs) so it's hard to hide my growing belly.
I'm wearing looser clothing but I feel like that makes me feel even more dumpy! I'm thinking about just saying screw it and getting some mat shirts/jeans and rockin' my bloat bump. LOL
What do you guys feel good in right now??

I've already busted out some of my old maternity pants just so I can be comfortable. I can still fit in to some of my pants that were already loose, but the maternity pants are much more comfy.
You seem to have been pretty lucky to avoid the bloat!
This is how I feel. I think I am going to cave and get a bella band today because it give me cramps if I wear even my fat pants and button them.
At work I have to wear khaki's and a ugly work shirt and we are supposed to tuck it in but I am not going to be able to do that anymore because my work pants barely button. I have just been wearing my jacket over it so that I don't have to tuck my shirt in.
Steal my kids picture or pretend they are yours, I will find where you live and ship all of their dirty diapers to your doorstep. Promise.
All of my dresses that are appropriate for work are summer dresses! I currently have one black suit that I can tolerate at work. Dresses would be great right now!

I had to buy a bella band last week since this bloat is just making it impossible to button my pants or/and zip up my skirt! lol. I am wearing the bella band with my skirt today and I absolutely love it!
Believe it or not, I have a tiny bump that is not bloat since before this pregnancy I was so slim that in the mornings, my stomach was completely flat, no bump whatsoever and now I have a permanent bump when I wake up after using the washroom and everything and it's impossible for me to suck it in so I know this one is baby, lol. But throughout the day, the bloat gets really bad so that's the main reason I need the bella band right now.
right now...my jeans are getting tight as I'm starting to show - so they aren't really an option right now.
At work, just my black dress pants are doing the job - today have on a tight fitting dark turquoise long sleeved boat neck shirt - and it's showing off the bump nicely! lol
I'm thinking of maternity wear shopping over Christmas at Kohl's and Steinmart
This is exactly how I feel!
I'm still wearing my regular pants and most of them still fit fine. A pair or two of my jeans are getting a little tight, so I will probably break out the beband here soon (i bought it a while ago in preperation). It has been a little more tough picking out shirts in the morning, since I usually wear really fitted clothes... but I'll make due for another month or so...
When I get home though...it's into sweatpants and a t-shirt/hoodie
Then I think you should do what I did and get a bella band and go for comfort! = ) There is no way I would have been able to keep coming to work wearing my current clothes if I didnt buy one so it definitaly did the trick = )
I have been trying to wear my old pants which still fit, but are extremely uncomfortable!! I have been trying to hold out till later to buy some new things but I am thinking I am going to search out some yoga pants and comfy shirts this weekend. The bloat has definately settled in
the Be Band is amazing. Not only does it help expand your pants but it helps with the muffin top that I seem to be getting when I actually get my pants buttoned.
Pull on pants from NY&C. They are soooooooo comfortable. They are on sale too. GET THEM TODAY!
