2nd babies when did you start maternity clothes

With my first I feel like I made it pretty much through the first trimester, but with this second baby I'm desperate to pull out the maternity clothes and I'm only in my 8th week.  When did your clothes start feeling tight?  I'm afraid I'm getting big too fast.

I didn't show and was still in my normal clothes at almost 6 months the first time around. This time I gave in at 8 weeks with stretch pants. So much more comfortable! At 12 weeks now and am already really showing

My 8th week, I was so bloated and rather get maternity pants instead of going up a size. I'm so comfortable though and I just love it:)

Me too. At 8 weeks I gave up! It was just to uncomfortable to west my regular clothes this time. With my first I think i made it to 18 weeks!

Same here. With my first I went atleast 4 months before having to buy maternity clothes. I am 8 weeks now with #2 and ive already switched to maternity. Ive heard that with your 2nd baby you can show sooner because your muscles are more relaxed and stretched.

Thanks Dana. I've heard that too, but am feeling more negative about my body changes this time around. Feeling less glow-y, hahaha.
