I'm not gonna lie, I have strongly considered some maternity work pants. No one will know and I'm tired of cramming my bloat into my normal clothes! At the very least, the hair tie through the button hole is gonna happen soon.

MrsD4911 · July 2014

Im a ftm, tomorrow I will be 10 weeks and I have been wearing maternity pants for a week. Nobody can tell but they are sooo much more comfortable! I think the tops give it away, so I am not wearing those yet.

chicagojackie · July 2014

I love my mat pants and have been wearing them x2 wks

why not

mays1028 · July 2014

I got mine out before that's only because I have a cyst on my right ovary and it was hurting to wear regular pants, now that I am pregnant I figured what the hell I just keep wearing them but I have lost 10 lbs from the early symptoms and now they are big lol oh well the weight will be back. This is my second and I was in maternity clothes early last time as well just not this early I am 7 weeks 4 days.

thegoodpotato · July 2014

Yes, I totally am. My belly is uncomfortable in regular pants, and mat pants keep it from getting the jelly rolls that bisect my blump.

Oem617 · July 2014

I started this week. But I only have one pair of maternity jeans at the moment. I am rocking dresses and the belly band all the time. Getting more pants ASAP. I didn't start wearing maternity clothes with DS until 18-20 weeks, so at 9 weeks it seems super early for me. But I'm very uncomfortable in regular pants.

maltwin1 · July 2014

I am in my "transitional clothes". I have some shorts and a pair of jeans that are a size up, and I just got a great deal on a bunch of shirts that have a more boxy/blousey cut. I'm hoping these things will get me through the first tri, but I love my maternity clothes so I'll be happy to go into them when I'm finally filling up my maternity tops. There is never a bad time for maternity pants though!

HerHighness · July 2014

Im in my fat pants when i have to go to work but thats because i had to chuck most of my maternity pants after last kid because they were falling apart.

I'm pretty much living in yoga pants and maxi dresses anyway. I plan on dragging the box of maternity clothes out tonight and washing them. I need to know what will still work and what wont will be passed to my sister.

lizjennings81 · July 2014

I haven't worn pants in weeks because of the heat. Flowy dresses for me, but today I looked down and my blump was sticking out in a way it wasn't last week. Yikes. Time to think over my wardrobe.

PollyPositive · July 2014

I haven't bought any yet. I think I'm lucky because I wear scrubs to work (thank God for draw string pants!), and yoga pants at home. Win, win.

jaytee16 · July 2014

Nope, but in all fairness, I work from home so I've just been hanging out in my sweats. I have not tried to put on real pants in....well, let's just say a while!

maryxc1 · July 2014

With DS I started wearing maternity pants around 10 weeks. I am 9 1/2 weeks now and think I have another week or two this time. Of course, I am a size bigger than I was last time so my pants are already a little bigger to accommodate my flab.

EMTP_Lisa · July 2014

I haven't bought any yet, but am very surprised that with this being my first pregnancy that I have been deploying the hair tie trick for at least 2 weeks yet. Going shopping for maternity pants Sunday. I can't wait to wear clothes that actually fit again.

mandamerlot · July 2014

Nope not yet! I didn't wear maternity jeans with DD until I was 28 weeks and even then I didn't do any tops. Just lots of long tanks.

laura*sean · July 2014

Me! But it's my second and despite only gaining 3 pounds I look 5 months pregnant already! Assume it's bloat? But doesn't really matter.

FlowerPower16 · July 2014

It's my 3rd pregnancy and I've been wearing them for a couple weeks now.

Neary2011 · July 2014

I have been wearing my for a few weeks because I feel very comfortable in them.

snootles · July 2014

I am wearing a mix! Mostly because of bloat - pants very tight in evenings and make bloat more uncomfortable. I'm a ftm and 10 weeks - I'm pretty fat already (before pregnancy) so I'm needing comfy pants! I'm figuring by the time the bloat goes down I will be starting to thicken up so I've gone straight to the maternity pants. Normal tops and dresses though.

Nlavender13 · July 2014

I have been in mine for a few weeks now, but I hit 11 weeks tomorrow. To tell you the truth i don't ever want to give them up:) I forgot how nice they are.

mommy510 · July 2014

I'm only 7 weeks, so no. 3rd pregnancy and super bloated, but as a general rule, I don't pull out the maternity clothes until 2nd tri.

Allie429 · July 2014

I have a 10 month old-I only gained 18 lbs when I was pregnant with her, but my lower half changed so much, (and I was only 5 lbs away from my prepregnancy weight before getting pregnant again) my reg pants were so uncomfortable I basically stayed in maternity pants. Soooo comfy!!

KiaE3620 · July 2014

No maternity clothes for me. I have been wearing a lot of dresses. To me its too hot for pants. I will be buying some once it cools off.

mommadozer · July 2014

Caved in 3 weeks ago. The blump is not comfy. Just wearing maternity pants and a lot of my skirts and dresses. Target cartwheel has a 40% off mat clothes through tomorrow and I stocked up on a pair of jeans, shorts and a dress.

I am inbetween....I feel more bloated than pregnant! I am not going to pretend I am a skinny 20 year old, just an average 38 year old Mommy of a toddler. I just look fat in my clothes and by the end of the work day I am not comfortable. I was not wearing maternity pants at 10 weeks the first time around, but thinking of digging some out. How about you?

I just wanted to day how excited I am about not being the only pregnant 38 year old with a toddler. Oh and I'm wearing my mat jeans as we speak; although they are far too large.

kittyj25 · July 2014

I am, mostly at night when the bloat is worse. @digwriter‌ - me too! 38 with a 5yo.

My mom found an old pair of jeans from my chunkier teenage years "maybe you can wear these when you start showing" I tried them on and they fit perfectly... stupid bloat I want a bump! [-(

savannabishop · July 2014

I dug out my maternity clothes. I was this big with my first at about 4 or 5 months. Not 10 weeks!

reyorra · July 2014

I never stopped wearing my maternity tops after 1st baby...but I'm not ready to head back to the pants yet.

ampyle · July 2014

I'll be 11 wks Tuesday, and I started wearing maternity clothes about 3 wks ago. While this is my first pregnancy, I started out a bit over weight so I guess it's only normal. $:\$ ">

psychobutthead · July 2014

I would love to wear maternity clothes right now. My jeans are getting a little too snug and so are my shirts. But I have this irrational fear that if I go out and buy some bad things will happen with this pregnancy. Irrational I know, but maybe once I get an ultrasound I'll feel better about this.

one2andnow3 · July 2014

I am doing ok with stretchy pants. Bloat is killing me though. I have a formal ball for a work conference that I am going to in 10 days and will be 9w at that point. I just pray that my belly doesn't pudge out at least until 10w so my dress will still fit. It was perfect when I tried it on earlier today. Fingers crossed.

kogd · July 2014

our 1st pregnancy and I'm just 8wks but just found out we are having twins!! So def wearing maternity pants...but like the idea of size up and tunic blouses. Still trying to hide it...not sure if it's they babies yet or just tons of bloating

congrats all!!

kefttsc · July 2014

I wore normal jeans yesterday but couldn't even partially zip them and my hair tie was barely cutting it. Today....yoga pants. Off to target for a pair of maternity pants. These twins are growing fast!

cls78 · July 2014

I am holding off until fall if I can. I have a lot of summer dresses I can wear. I wear sweat pants at home.

Ditto all of this. I hate having regular pants dig into my bloated stomach, and the one pair of maternity jeans I have bought so far are amazing.

psychobutthead · July 2014

i went to ross today. they have a maternity section so ladies i would check them out. i saw some of the exact tops that i saw on the motherhood maternity site for $5!!!

amdeppen724 · July 2014

I just bought a pair of maternity work pants. I work full time in an office and dress pants have no flexibility for the bloat. I also bought a maternity bra, since I'm already up one size! 10 weeks tomorrow

Mrs.EvilQueen · July 2014

I headed out today to see if I could find a pair or "transitional" capris to get me through the summer, but all the sales for summer clothes are on and I ended up doing a full on maternity shop. I though I wasnt ready for the tummy panel, but its so flattering and comfy, I feel sleeker then before I got pregnant! I feel like I never want to wear regular clothes again.!

MamaS516 · July 2014

I have been so bloated! Maternity pants were a must for me!
