Already wearing a belly band

in June 2012 Moms

Well today is the first day I broke down and put on the belly band...just shy of 9 weeks (this is my first).  I feel like I'm going to be huge by the end of this!

Please let me know I'm not the  only one.....

After 15 cycles and 3 rounds of clomid (50mg) we got our BFP.

    I have been tempted with some of my more fitted pants.  Why not be comfy in some respect?

    Not the only one - I wore mine for the first time this past Saturday at 8w5d and this is also my first. It's the strangest thing - I've only gained 1.5 lbs, but I can't button my work pants and when I look in the mirror, I notice that there is only the slightest bump forming but the little pooch that I've always had is sticking out and up...haha. However, I know that I'm the only one that can notice it because it's me.

    You're not the only one who broke down today.  I'm only 7W 5D though.  More for comfort with all this bloat, and I'm wearing more fitted work pants today.

    You aren't alone. This is my first and I feel like I am going to be a blimp by the end of this 40 weeks. I haven't started wearing the bella bands or maternity pants YET, but I have a feeling it won't be long. I am affraid to step on the scale bc of what the number may be. I feel huge!

    I've been wearing maternity pants since 7 weeks.
    We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker

    I've been wearing maternity pants since 9 weeks again I've never been more comfortable! I wish it was socially acceptable to wear these amazing pants all the time. :)

    Not yet... but it's weird as I have a pair of jeans that by the end of the day in my earlier weeks of pregnancy, I was miserable in. Yet i wore them all day yesterday and was fine! For some reason I think my bloat has gone down. Either that or my jeans are stretching.

    My weight has remained steady, thankfully. But i know it's only a matter of time ;-)

    Ditto!  I'm not going to suffer a whole day in my regular jeans.  Every time I sit and then stand that stupid band would slip up exposing my underpants.  My maternity stuff may be a little big, but I'm comfortable.

    Oh lovey, I've been wearing mine off and on for weeks.  :)  Mostly because the bloat by day's end is unbearable and I can't do the hair tie trick on my work pants.  You're totally not alone!

    I don't need it in the morning..but by the end of the day it's painful to do up my pants. 

    P.S.  Where have you been?  I miss you!

    So thankful for your post. I was feeling ridiculously fat yesterday (and whiney), with the thinking that it was too early for my belly to be as big as it is.

    I have gained several pounds from indulging in cravings, but my belly is bigger than that! Luckily I have plenty of larger pants from having lost weight last year, so I'm happy in my old pants. But oh, I'm looking forward to stretchy waistbands!
