Still in regular pants here. Last pregnancy I bought a few pair of jeans that were a size or two bigger and I wore those until my maternity pants really fit. I put one of those pair on today and they are still a little loose.
I started wearing my maternity pants about 2 weeks ago (around 14 weeks). I went from being no where close to very tight pants almost over night! They are still big & baggy on me but much more comfortable.
I've been using the rubber and trick for some time because of constipation and bloating. Now I don't have a choice. I use a belly band also. And I had to dig out my maternity shirts!
Luckily I get to wear sweatpants and stuff to work. I have only put on 4lbs so far this pregnancy, but i did put on quite a bit of weight before getting pregnant. Darn our month of not wanting to cook and eating out a lot. So those 4lbs put me over, I am definately in maternity jeans :(
I hate my maternity jeans and am hoping I can make my regular ones last until it gets warm enough to switch to capris and shorts. I have 2 pairs of capris I lived in when I was pg with Ali and I'm actually looking forward to wearing those again!
I can't wait for it to get warmer! I love all my spring/summer maternity clothes. They are all so comfortable. I am starting to have to wear the shirts because my belly is just big enough that my regular ones are a little too short :)
I'm using the hair tie trick to keep my regular pants "buttoned" and I have bought a couple pair of pants in a bigger size. I have looked for maternity clothes at Wal-Mart/K-Mart but can't find any. I ordered some tops online but was didn't want to order jeans without trying them on. I'm planning on making a shopping trip in a few weeks...the closest place is about 2 hours away!
I really like Kohl's maternity jeans. I have 2 pairs & they are really comfortable. I bought both pairs online because their in-store selection is slim. For me, Target's fit small & Motherhood Maternity's are just over priced. I also really like Old Navy's maternity selection. I have a couple of their shirts & they are comfy.
I was going to mention Old Navy for maternity stuff, too. I have some items from Motherhood but only because I received a gift cert for Christmas one year. I agree they are overpriced for the most part!
I've definitely broken out my maternity pants.
