Yes! I am already button-tricking ALL of my pants. Partially because I am so bloated and I have a (irrational, I know, can you tell its my first pregnancy) fear of "squishing" baby. But the bloating combined with the general digestive dysfunction means I fantasize about my yoga pants all day, and then drive home with my pants unbuttoned.
Nothing fits me already, so DH was kind enough to come home with the next size larger in everything for me last night. Normally I would be insulted, but he was so excited.

What kind of belly bands do you guys use and where do you get them?nbsp; Thanks!
I was so miserable last Friday that I made a special stop on my way home from work to get one from the Motherhood Maternity in the mall. Of course they kept trying to sell me other stuff, and I was just like "Dude, I'm like 4 weeks. I just need a band for my bloat!". Get off my back, lol. So, that was annoying, but at least I got more comfy and stopped being a creeper driving around with my pants unbuttoned and unzipped. It does the job, but it does slip a bit if I bend down to pick something up from the ground.
I ordered two more of the Ingrid and Isabel Everyday Bella Bands from Amazon. I just got them yesterday, so I'll see if I like these better. They were more expensive since they have an antislip silicone lip on the bottom half.
I have been gassy all day every day! I find myself passing gas several times an hour. My pants won't fit and I thought I was the only one experiencing this! Nice to see that I'm not alone.
I am a whale. I think I have bloat twins or something.
I've been wearing a tighter tank top underneath everything this week so I can keep my pants unbottoned, but I think I am going to admit defeat and get the Bella Band this afternoon and try that for a while. My husband (despite my telling him over and over that its just bloat) keeps rubbing my belly and telling me how cute I look, so that's a plus.

Re: Ugh, clothes uncomfortable already!
Ugh yes!! My stomach is so distended from bloat
I ordered two belly bands today since if my bloat gets much worse I won't be buttoning any works pants soon

Just keep swimming.
The bloat has been horrible this time around!! I swear...I'm so tempted to go dig out my old maternity clothes already!

Omigosh, me too. I seriously cannot get out of my work clothes fast enough at the end of the day!!
