Broke down and bought the pants
I went for my physical yesterday so I can set up my OB appt for October 3rd when I'm 14 weeks. I told her that I'm at the 10 week Mark and the bloat is only getting worse and that I can't comfortably wear any of my stretchy pants. I was telling her that I can't wait for the bloat to die down so I can at least look normal before I get super round and she laughed at me! She was feeling my belly and looking at the U/S that I had done at 8 weeks in the ER and told me to just get maternity pants now because my round tummy is not going anywhere.
I really didn't understand because so many people have told me that it dies down and then I'll get bigger in like month 4 or 5. Doctor didn't explain why, which annoyed me a bit. I can't be upset anymore because those maternity pants are amazing, but expensive. Glad I get to get more wear time out of them and not have it pushing on tender parts of me. If you're round, get the pants!
