Maternity clothes?

Question

At what point do/did you mommy’s start buying maternity clothes? I feel so bloated that even the band on my leggings feel uncomfortable. I’m a FTM and have no idea what I’m doing 😬

Answer

Buy them early get the most of your money! Why wait until you are uncomfortable. Might as well use them as long as possible.

Answer

I tried to buy early but I also tried to buy “bump friendly” instead of “bump only”. Maxi dresses. Swing tanks.  Yoga pants that can fold under my belly. A lot of it I can wear whether I’m pregnant or not which is nice!

Answer

Id just get some maternity leggings and live in your husband/significant others shirts. I’m by no means cheap but to spend money on clothes that you’ll only wear for a few short months is ridiculous to me when you have so much other stuff to get. I have three maternity leggings and that’s it 🤷🏽‍♀️ that’s just me tho. I have 6 more weeks to go and don’t plan on getting anything else. This is my third child (twin mom with a singleton on the way)

Answer

I bought in stages. I bought a few with the side band elastic when the bloating and early stretching started getting uncomfortable... probably around 10-12weeks. Then I bought some more with the full belly band fabric towards the end of the 2nd trimester when the first pairs no longer fit. My suggestion is to do it when you feel uncomfortable and to try a few on to find what works best for you and expect that your preference and size might change. There are a few different styles. I found most of mine at the second hand store actually.

Answer

There is no wrong time to buy them. I think I bought my first pair around 15 weeks

Answer

I actually didnt need to with my first 2, this time, I'm currently 15w with twins, and have a little more gas pains and things, so I got a couple pairs of pants a few weeks ago. Aside from that, I'll just buy more when my belly starts to raise my shirt
