Lol I was just thinking about hdbd! I am wearing red pants today (non-maternity) and was thinking about my favorite red maternity pants that I swear were in at least half a dozen of my bump pics last time.
I definitely already look way more pregnant than I really am, but I also haven't lost a jot since having the last bebe. Lol I look like I'm at least 6 mos already! 😂😬
This is my first pregnancy and I am blown away by how much bloat I have. None of my skinny jeans or form fitting clothes are a possibility anymore. I seriously feel like I already have a bump, but I know it's not. 😬 I'm hoping it will dissipate soon? Any advice or insight would be much appreciated! 🙏🏻
@bailey_baby can only speak for myself but the carbs to curb the nausea bit me in the butt, hard. i bought maternity pants at the end of the 1st trimester and never looked back. i vote for keeping yourself as comfortable as possible and going shopping when you're ready for some cute maternity clothes!
@bailey_baby I feel ya! Didn't expect that symptom from pregnancy at all. I've even lost 2 lbs (thank you vomiting) but I have a definite bloat belly. I wear a lot of dresses, I find that not having a waistband is a huge relief on my belly. I haven't found anything that really helps it though
@bailey_baby - just embrace the maternity pants lol I'll be giving in shortly - I think last time I didnt until 16 weeks, wearing a hair elastic around my jeans button to give some stretch with long shirts...it's annoying lol. After my 12 weeks scan, I'm packing up my regular pants and saying see ya for a year! lol

@bailey_baby I'm honestly just impressed you're still attempting skinny jeans . All pieces of non-loungewear have been stashed away in the back of my closet since March 2020 lol. Going back into the office in September will be a RUDE awakening.
@lexilougolden the waistband is a huge no no for me at this point. I haven't approached the maternity section yet because I honestly felt I was being over the top with needing maternity already, but I'm ready to screw that thought process and just embrace the stretch! 😂 So grateful to hear I'm not exaggerating the uncomfortable feelings and that I should already be moving to the maternity section.
