3rd kid - almost 6 weeks - and already wanting to take out my maternity clothes
I already have a huge belly. From my last two kids I never fully lost my belly so the second I gain a pound it goes right to my belly (also two csections and one long miscarriage)
I would love to go into my maternity bin and take out some comfy jeans that I can wear earlier on in my pregnancy but I feel like I'll jinx it.
Do I just suck it up and wear leggings, yoga pants, and sweatsuits for the next couple of weeks? What do I do when we have a party or go out to dinner? My regular jeans are already snug on me.
HELP!

Do you have a bella band from your other pregnancies? If not, you can buy them at any maternity store and Target carries them too. That lets you wear your normal jeans and pants and just leave them unzippered. Good Luck - hopefully it's just that you're bloated and it will go down around week 7/8 and then you'll be okay for a few weeks before your belly really grows.

I could've written this myself! This is an old screenname since i haven't announced my pregnancy yet. But I'm 6 weeks with my third and pants are already tight. And I'm eating so much less! I'm wearing the same jeans that fit and yoga pants for a few more weeks. I haven't even seen the baby on a sonogram yet so no wAy am I wipping out the maternity clothes yet!

I am 8 weeks with my second and my jeans are getting snug but I seriously refuse to put on maternity clothes at just 8 weeks. I am not even out yet to any of my friends and most of my family. I'm just going to suck it in for now and pray I don't pop for at least another month.

Not on #3, but with #2 I had my maternity pants out at 7 weeks. I felt SO much better and since I had a belly even before I got pregnant, plus the bloat, I looked 13 weeks when I was 6 weeks along 
Just do it, you'll feel better

Grab a Bella band or Be Band. I'm on 3 too, and my belly popped so early.

I'm only on baby 2 and by 8 weeks I was ONLY wearing maternity pants. I can still wear regular shirts (mostly because I don't wear many fitted shirts to begin with), but by 6 weeks, my regular pants didn't close and I was using hair rubberbands, the be band/bella band etc. I took out a pair of maternity pants and I was like, whyyyy am I not just wearing these??? Haha. Be comfy!
