Size at 24 weeks?

I know everyone is different and all that jazz, but...

We're planning a trip to Mexico when I'll be about 24 weeks pregnant. Were you showing at that point?

I don't know if I should start getting a few bigger clothing items to wear, just in case I'm bigger at that point? I don't want to wait too long because all of the stores will start changing to fall clothing in the next month or so. Then again, I don't want to go and buy a bunch of new clothes, just for Mexico, if I'm not going to need them.

To give you a little perspective, this was me at 23 weeks

and here I am at 25 weeks (no 24 week pic, sorry hehe)

I could still wear a lot of non-maternity stuff at that point, as long as they were longer. Hope this helps

To copy Ashley - Here is my 24 week bump -

As far as clothes go, I was still in pre-pg clothes, but bella band with the jeans

This is my 24 week pic. You'll definitely be wearing maternity clothes on the bottom, but any tops you have will probably fit (unless your boobs get ginormous!).

I was in maternity pants but could still wear regular shirts (and most maternity shirts were huge on me) at that point.

That's about when I was just starting to show. Here's my 24 week pic:

At 25 weeks my friggin' dumbass was going to Machu Picchu....which was December, but that's their summer. Sooooo, I basically took some yoga pants/capris & was happy as a pig in mud!

24 weeks for me

I was in both maternity pants and tops at that point. I switched back to normal skirts and long tanks when it got warmer.

And I'm wearing all maternity clothes.

24 weeks was about the time we got married. People only knew I was pg because we told them. Everybody is different, but you def won't be huge.

You won't know how your body changes until it happens. I was in both maternity pants and tops, but needed the pants a lot more than the tops. I was just at the point where shirts that were big on me before I was pregnant became tight, so I'd keep that in mind.

I went to a Gap Maternity on Sat and picked up a lot of summer clothes on clearance with 25% off on top of it. So for about $125 I got 3 dresses and 5-6 shirts. They also had a bump there for trying on clothes if you didn't have much of a bump. So I'd highly recommend going to one if there's one by you. I found their clothes to fit a bit more to my natural shape than motherhood's lines but their clearance prices are better than motherhood's. Not to mention a normal return policy. HTH!

I am 23 weeks right now. If you are like me and usually wear dresses while on vacation you should be all set. All of my non-maternity empire waist dresses fit perfectly right now with plenty more room to grow. For shorts and jeans I've had to switch to maternity, but some of my work pants still fit because I've always worn them a little bigger than jeans. Long, loose non-maternity tops are good for me right now and I think they will be for a while. I am somewhat small busted to begin with, so the maternity shirts are a little big up top. One thing to consider though - I am 5'8" with a long torso, so I think my bump is a little smaller that someone who is shorter.
