Just past 9 weeks, pants already tight?

Question

I’m just into my 9th week and although I haven’t really gained any weight yet my pants are starting to feel uncomfortable and tight?? 
Holy cow I wasn’t expecting to have this problem until August 😂 but I went to the store today and bought some skinny maternity jeans and it helped a lot. 
We had the first OB appointment and ultrasound Monday and I’m not having more than one... this is my first. 
Is this normal?

Answer

I think it really just depends as everyone is different. Also depends on the type of clothes you usually wear. I’m only 7w4 but my leggings feel too tight around my belly area already 😭

Answer

In the same boat girl I just turned 9 weeks and none of my pants fit - I’m doing the rubber band trick right now 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think next week I’m gonna turn all my jeans into DIY maternity jeans but that’s only bc my pants never last me more than a year anyways so I might as well get my use out of them right now

Answer

I’ve already bought shorts a size up hoping to make it through the summer 😭 so wasn’t ready for that haha

Answer

I bought maternity pants at 5 or 6 weeks because my bloated belly felt so sensitive that any type of waistband made me extremely nauseous. I was hesitant at first also, but comfort is priority, and given I know I'll need them later anyways, I took the plunge. I recommend it.
