Have you started wearing/ buying maternity clothes?

I have been wearing leggings for 3 weeks now and finally just went to the maternity store for some real clothes. I haven't been able to do the rubber band trick for jeans in while. But although she was super friendly the lady at the store made me feel like I was there super early in my pregnancy...
Idk it made me feel self conscious and I was just wondering how you ladies are coping with the growing bellies :)
