When did you...

start buying maternity pants and clothes? I am 16 weeks now and my pants are being held together with hair ties and rubberbands, but they look saggy now because they are fitting right and fall low (also don't want to buy the bella band). I am still small so I was wondering if maternity would fit me now or should I buy a bigger size in pants...but not sure how that would look either. ugh! I hate this stage!

I went into full maternity pants (and some tops) at around 14 weeks.

Me too, although they are still somewhat big on me, but my regular clothes do not fit at all, and I HATED the bella band

I haven't yet, I'm 17 weeks and have been using the Bella Band. I think i might bite the bullet soon though, just for comfort's sake.

I was in maternity pants by 15 or 16 weeks. They're so much more comfortable than using regular pants with a bella band or rubber band. The secret fit belly ones are great and should last you throughout the pregnancy.

Re: When did you...

With my first DC, I started wearing maternity pants at 14 wks. I'm 6 1/2 weeks now so we'll see what happens this time. So far my pants are big on me because I'm losing weight thanks to m/s and food aversions.

I am 20 weeks and don't have anything yet.... I have a pair of jeans that still work-- and I wear mostly skirts and dresses which are more forgiving. I also don't really have much of a belly yet.

I am wearing maternity jeans and I just fold down the full panel (secret fit are the best!) and they fit just fine. Amazing how comfortable they are!! Chat Icon

I am 13 wks and have my SIL's maternity jeans on right now. Other than that - I use the bella band on my regualr pants, that should work for me for a while. Do whatever is comfortable for you!

I'll be 16 weeks tomorrow and no maternity clothes yet. I'm sure I won't be in maternity for at least another 4 - 5 weeks. But things are starting to get snug.
