This is my first pregnancy and I feel so behind compared to everyone! I'm about 14 weeks and still fitting into my normal clothes pretty easily. I'm going shopping tomorrow for some pants/leggings but just curious when everyone really started needing to wear maternity clothes?
Re: STM's when did you start wearing maternity clothes?

I just wanted to be comfortable but I am still wearing larger flowy shirts to hide things.
I know I was anxious to have a belly the first time because people would make comments like " are you sure your pregnant" . One morning you'll wake up and bam, there will be a belly :
I'm also a FTM and have just completed week 17. I've just reached the point where my low rise jeans are getting uncomfortable. They still fit, but when sitting for a while they start to feel tight and ironically it feels like baby belly is pushing them down and I have constant plumbers crack!
I just went to Walmart last night and bought a pair of yoga pants that have pockets on them along with some cheap cardigans and thick wrap around sweaters (not maternity, just in a bigger size than normal). I'm wearing the pants today and they are incredible! I did buy a few pairs of mat jeans from Kohl's when I was visiting the US (I'm Cdn), but it seems that belly isn't quite big enough to hold those up yet either.
Have fun shopping!!
i really popped between 16-17 weeks, but sadly the maternity pants I bought are still too baggy in the seat and my legs so they look a little too sloppy for work. I have 3 pairs of pants that still fit on my legs , though tight, and I just slip on the belly band and they're still comfortable.
As far as shirts, I wear maternity shirts because between my stomach and growing BB I explode out of everything that isn't flowy...
