When did you start wearing maternity?

Question

I know eveyone is different I'm a bigger girl normal size 20/22 in jeans. a few days shy of 15 weeks. Just curious.

Answer

13 weeks. Last pregnancy I was able to get away with useing a hair Tie. I had a c section so now when i do that the zipper rubs on my scar ( extremely painful) anyways I said screw it. If anything I'll grow in to them if I get them early.

Answer

I just went shopping today as I recently has lost 158 lbs prior to pregnancy . I still had old leggings (3x) two pair since my 1x (14) jeans don't fit. I'm 21 wk now and I bought maxi skirts and one pair maternity jeans from target . But I hate the jeans they fall off me and I got in my normal size ! Guess it's skirts and leggings for me .

Answer

10 weeks or so. Belly band helped tons.

Answer

Im 11 weeks, I have bought one pair of jeans so far.... I can only wear the jeans that are stretchy out of my normal clothes (one pair) so I bought these so id have another pair of pants!  They aren't the full belly band. They are lose and I have to pull them up but they are super comfy.

Answer

It's been gradual. Started with regular jeans (still buttoned) and belly band around 13 weeks because belts were starting to be uncomfortable. Found actual maternity jeans too loose and uncomfortable until about 22 weeks. Now I find my regular jeans uncomfortable instead. At 23 weeks I still wear many tops that are not maternity, but mix in some that are. Gradually maternity is becoming more comfortable.

Answer

I had to at 10 weeks but I was wearing my maternity bras at 7 weeks. This is my second and my uterus is scared so baby is sitting higher then normal due to scar tissue. At least that's what my ob told me was the issue why I looked so much larger

Answer

I started in maternity pants at 12 weeks. I'm 17 weeks today and about to order some maternity shirts, my regular ones aren't long enough any more. I was a prepregnancy size 20-22.

Answer

I am 11 weeks tomorrow and maternity clothes are too big right now.  I find the Demi band pants fit the best right now.  But I still have to wear a Bella band with them to keep them up. My regular pants are just a little tight but I can still wear them.

Answer

I am also plus sized (generally wear a 16). I felt my pants getting tight early on and was in full blown maternity pants by 13-14 weeks. I'm now 25 weeks and am feeling my current maternity pants getting a bit tight so I think I need to try a different band type or style. From what I know it's normal to need to switch to maternity close earlier on no matter what size you are. It's a matter of our bodies and how they change.

Answer

With this baby I out grew maternity clothes that I wore with my first pregnancy. I think I started wearing maternity clothes around 12/13 weeks. I too am plus sized.
