    Definitely rocking the maternity pants. They are glorious. I also came to the realization today that I'm going to need to buy new underwear.

    ME TOO! My ponytail holder is working wonders, holding my pants together. And yes to the new underwear; my normal ones are cutting into my stomach and that's pretty miserable.

    I washed all my maternity clothes from last time and added them to my closet. I had to take out a tonne of skinny clothes to make room. I am thoroughly enjoying my wide elastic target work pants I just bought. I put them on and felt instantly like 'I can go back to work tomorrow, things will be okay'. You are not alone!

    I am lucky that all my pants were too big for me before pregnancy but they are feeling tighter. I hate the feeling.

    me too!!! 9 weeks today.  I used an elastic hair tie on my jeans today.  I am so bloated.  I spend so much time picking out a top for work that wont give me away.  I tend to pick out flowy blouses.

    Right here  :-h with you ladies! I bought two pair of office pants two weeks ago went from a 6 to an 8. I've been loading up on carbs because that's all I can eat right now. And it's not the baby it's me getting fat on those carbs! Oh and no exercise, due to spotting my OB recommended only walking (this is a girl who would run up to 8 miles on weekends).

    Whew!  I have been living in leggings, but maxi skirts sound heavenly!  I bought some super stretch skinny jeans a size up, and they are wonderful, but are quickly getting too tight, even with my belly band on!

    Maternity pants, maxi skirts, and pizza - here I come!

    The belly bands are the best. Just looks like a layered tank top and no one will know your pants are wide open. At this stage it's all about comfort.

    What are real pants? Ha! All I wear are scrubs or sweats (thank god because all I've been eating, when I can eat, is CRAP which is unlike me). I don't think I'm going to put on real pants again until well into postpartum, which is A-OK with me! I have found that my scrub pants don't stay up anymore (damn drawstrings) because they slip down under the bloat...better than tight pants though!

    poohbearlove123 yessss! I caught sight of myself in a dressing room 3-way mirror the other day and was like WOW, I am all middle. Then I decided I'm not shopping for anything but maternity clothes online until fall 2015. 3 way mirrors are the devil's invention.

    I can still fit into some of my pants (10 weeks today) but they are snug so Im living in yoga pants but my bras are overflowing!! No "belly" yet just look flaby. Bloat and constipation are so fun! Not! Planning on going to look for some nursing bras and a few maternity clothes this weekend! :) Any suggestions on where to go? I heard old navy has some good stuff?

    I'm down to one pair of pants that fit, and even then it's only until after I eat lunch. Broke down and wore maternity pants to work yesterday, but I was still uncomfortable because the top was squeezing my stomach (even though it's like up by my boobs). I can't win:(

    Ugh. I went last weekend to get a new bra, (my boobs have been by far the most painful symptom, just horrible, even showers hurt) and maturnity pants. Made my life so much more comfortable. But busted out the winter coat this morning (awesome living in michigan, eye roll) and my coat was super snug. Felt super depressed about this :-(

    Oh my lord I'm so glad I'm not the only one going through this! I have yet to gain any weight. But the bloating! The bloating has got me nuts! How could even my fat jeans feel snug?! I honestly thought it was all in my head until now. Didn't want to have to buy maternity jeans until I really needed to, but by the looks of things that's going to be a little sooner than I thought! Gotta love motherhood!

    Ha. I usually rock the yoga pants but when I run errands or have important things to go to (such as meeting HD's CEO and CFO and all his big bosses) I dress up in my nice jeans and I was getting ready to go when I pulled up my jeans.... guess that wasn't a good idea. My thighs are massive!!!! I cried a little...( I'm only 7weeks) then I made a quick dash to the garage into my maternity clothes... thankfully I saved all my fat jeans...

    Yes same here! My pants did not fit when I was about 4-5 weeks and now they don't zipper and I am only 7 weeks! It's because I am so bloated but now I even have a little belly. I am thinking maybe it's due to the prenatal vitamins I am taking? I take GNC with DHA and it says 3 per day. I feel ginormous already :/

    What has helped is the bella band. I don't even have to zip my jeans. I just place it over and it looks like I am wearing a tank top. I haven't tried it with my nice work pants though.

    I guess I should just embrace it?!

    This is my first so I am trying to get used to all the body changes.

    Yeah...so...I look like I am 6 months pregnant not 9 weeks. It is embarassing.

    I have to wear flowy sweaters to cover it up. Driving me nuts.

    DH was like "well you wear baggy clothes all the time so you should be fine"

    Hmmm, yes, interesting point except that I had lost like 40lbs after having DD and got rid of all my clothes and bought nice fitted things that show off the fact that I am 40lbs less.

    I already bought and am wearing maternity pants. They are too big in the tummy (obviously) but they are super comfortable.

    Feeling the same way. Work pants that fit start of last week were almost unwearable yesterday. How does that even happen so fast? Thank goodness the jeans have some stretch but ugh are the thighs getting tight

    +1 for being totally bloated!  I had to ditch my belt but it still sucks.  I have not gained any real weight--maybe 2 or 3 pounds?--but my belly is so bloated that my pants are getting to cut into it.  Even though they still fit! :'(  But honestly I don't really care; I can't WAIT to have a real bump!!  This in between part does kind of sucks though.
