I broke down and did it

catnip4632 · November 2013

I swore I wasn't going to buy maternity clothes. But after putting on my jeans today, my belly couldn't handle being smushed any longer. Went to Motherhood and watched an obscene amount of money leave my checking account. The upside? I look seriously preggo. Yikes!

I did too this week. Maternity jeans feel so much more comfortable. I now have room for my bloat, but now I don't have the jeans to hold in the fat. Haha.

Maternity pants are the best. Embrace it!

I broke down and bought some pants from gap for work. They're so comfortable I don't know why I suffered this long. Luckily my banana jeans were large in the waist and are still comfortable!

I may never wear regular jeans again! For real.

I bought a ton of second hand maternity clothes last week and it's SO much better.

I don't know why everyone is so against maternity pants. I think they are wonderful! I may never go back to regular pants!!!

Dude. All that elastic feels heavenly!!! I even got some maternity granny panties. I can't wait to dance around my house in them.

I never understand why women are against maternity clothes? I was so excited to get into them. Not only are they comfortable but having a new wardrobe is fun and the full panel bands really make the bump look perfectly round.

I totally agree. So much more comfortable. But there will be a day where you long to wear pants that zip again.

This! Maternity clothes are comfortable and I couldn't wait to get into them with my first, but this time around I'm staying in my regular pants as long as I can. I am in no rush to lose my normal clothing.

I was hell bent on making my clothes work. Nope! Once I tried on maternity clothes I was a goner. Where have these jeans been all my life? I'm with @cgoldian 100%

Lucky for me, my sister just had a baby 4 months ago...which means I got all of her maternity clothes.

Im still in my regular jeans but i am seriously enjoying the "new" tops/sweaters.

I can still fit into my normal clothes, but there are tight and uncomfortable, so I broke down and started wearing maternity jeans and pants. I still wear my normal shirts, just have to be careful with the length.

I bought my first 2 pairs on Friday and love them. I can't wait to wear them to Thanksgiving dinner! It is crazy though, I seriously look WAY more pregnant in my maternity pants, it really does make the bump look perfectly round!

maelic · November 2013

I just bought a belly band so far and it works great! That way I'm not limited to just a couple pairs of maternity jeans.

I bought my first maternity work pants and jeans this weekend. I really didn't want to until our 20 week appointment, but I am so glad I did. Target has some decent priced clothes.

I honestly never switched back to regular clothes from my daughter. My jeans and shirts didnt fit the same after having her and I didn't feel like buying new clothes. Plus they're SO comfy. I bought some new maternity jeans around ten weeks

NicoleAnne416 · November 2013

I don't understand why people fight it, either. Squishing into regular pants only makes us look fat and uncomfortable! I went ahead around 12-13 weeks and switched to maternity pants with #3.

Bees Everywhere · November 2013

I'm pretty shocked so many people were fitting into non-maternity clothes until just the last week! You guys are lucky. I feel like my belly is huge, I've been out of my regular jeans for a long time now!

scarles · November 2013

I bought maternity jeans and work pants early on- at about 8 weeks. Best purchase ever!

eireyes · November 2013

I'm stuck in the middle - I have one pair of maternity jeans right now, but I'm not quite big enough to fill them out, so they fall all the time, and I HATE saggy pants. My normal jeans work with the belly band, but they fall down too, and just look stupid lumpy...

Nicole Zook · November 2013

I bought maternity pants quite a few weeks ago, im tall and found tall maternity jeans on sale so i bought them but im not wearing them yet. whats killing me is i cant wear many of my regular shirts they are all too short now thanks to the little bump im rocking, and the serious boobage! so thankfully im still in my regular jeans but wearing maternity shirts.
