When did your normal pants feel better?

When did you feel better wearing tighter pants/jeans?

My incision feels a lot better these past couple of weeks but my pants still feel weird sometimes - I feel a lot more comfortable in loose athletic pants and maternity pants. I've already lost all of my pp weight, except my stomach is still a little bigger than before. And I had some leaking on my incision site until about a week or so ago that made it pretty tender in a couple of spots.

Sometimes when my pants are tight on my incision, it's sore when I take them off and sometimes when I'm walking around. And I'm still scared to wear jeans without my extender band.

I remember going through all that you described. I lost my weight within six weeks and my pants felt better around Christmas, so ~2 months.

Just over 6 weeks

I was in maternity pants/yoga/leggings for the first 4 weeks, after that I was in normal jeans with a bella band and by 8 weeks was able to wear pre-pregnancy pants without any discomfort.
