Anyone else?

Question

I am almost 7 weeks with baby #2, and I am so bloated.. it’s a little difficult but not undoable to zip and button my pants. But when I do they dig into me just enough to make me uncomfortable. I’ve always had a flat abdomen.. even after having my daughter... I don’t mean that to sound braggy just part of my experience.. But it’s so uncomfortable I feel like already I either need to completely switch to leggings (I usually wear jeans) or start maternity pants.. ALREADY!! Only 7 weeks.. so is it just me or anyone else.. like “showing” so much this early they can’t wear their jeans? 🙄

Answer

If you have any longer shirts to wear, there is one trick I know of that can extend the wearability of your jeans.  Take a rubber band or a good hair tie and run it through the hole of your jeans where the button usually goes.  Then just loop both ends around the button and voila!  You get an extra couple of inches to work with and still get to rock your favorite pairs of jeans.  Just make sure your top is long enough to cover it, especially if you lift your arms up high.  I did this with both of my pregnancies and it can honestly get you through a good month or two to stave off the dreaded maternity section.

Answer

OMG, same. I thought I was crazy. Baby number two always had a flat tummy, even after baby, and no I had to unbutton my pants so they didn't cut into my gut. 🤪 I weighed myself and it's the same weight as I was a few weeks ago, just super bloated
