How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I am 8w4d and many of my skirts and pants dont fit. Some jeans fit, but they are not too comfortalbe.

:(


Anyone else have this issue this early?

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

Not yet but, I'm only coming up on 7w.
I have read about other posters moving in to larger sizes or maternity @ 7-8 weeks tho.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

Around 9-10 weeks. They were good while standing, the minute I sat, they got unbuttoned.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

Probably about the same. I started having to unbotton most of my pants. Around 9 weeks I was wearing a size bigger. Now at almost 14 weeks I'm in either in the bigger size (sometimes unbuttoned) or maternity pants.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

i definitely felt bloated in the beginning and started wearing the bella band with my pants unbuttoned. it helped a lot.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I am 10w2d and just put the belly band on today....my pants are getting a little uncomfy now....i have heard that with #2 you show faster b/c when I was pg with #1 I didn't show until almost 5mos

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

around 6 weeks

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I was able to get them on and feel OK last week (10 weeks), but today when I put on the same pants, I was miserable! So, I guess my answer is 11 weeks. HELLO maternity jeans!

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I'll be 12 weeks on Sunday and I have to now selectively choose what to wear! Some pairs of pants don't fit, others are okay. I did wear a bella band yesterday because I ran out of pant options and needed something! It worked fine, I was just worried all day at work that I was going to reach for something and my shirt would lift up and you'd see it!

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I am 22 weeks and I am still in regular jeans but I wouldn't be able to button my dress pants. I am carrying really high with this pregnancy though so low rise jeans have been working well for me. This is my 3rd pregnancy.

With my second I was probably wearing maternity at around 14 or 15 weeks.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

With both of my pregnancies I wore some regular pants up until around 18 weeks. But I always got bloated around 8-10 weeks and my pants were super tight.

Give it some time, it may just be your body adjusting to all the hormones!

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I am 12 weeks and they are starting to get a little snug. I will probably soon invest in a belly band

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

You're probably bloated. I remember clothes feeling tight that early on too. I used a Bella Band or Be Band on my regular pants until I got big enough to switch to maternity.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I'm 13w 4d today and I was just telling DH today that my jeans are starting to bother me. I think I'm a bit behind tho because I lost about 9 lbs in the first tri from being sick. My jeans aren't bothering me when I'm standing, but more when I'm sitting. I think I'll be investing in some more stretchie pants and the belly band. I'm not quite ready to jump into maternity wear just yet.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I can still technically button my pants but they tend to dig into my tummy after a while so i just stopped buttoning them. I use a be band and I uustnwore my first pair of maternity pants today which were so comfy! I'm just about 17 weeks now.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

about 7-8 weeks with both my kids. I had a lot of bloating early on though.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I lost 7lbs in my first trimester I was so sick, but at the same time, I was so bloated. So my clothes where tight around the 8-9 week mark. Then my stomach actually went down a little. I started wearing maternity pants around 14 weeks. This is my second PG though.

First time around, I started wearing materity pants around 16-17 weeks. My regular pants where tight though by 12 weeks. Sometimes I had to wear the bella band.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

@ 6 but thats also my stupid fault for gaining some weight before getting the BFP

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

Are you on progesterone?

I was in maternity pants by 10 weeks with both girls because the progesterone made me so frekkin bloated.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

I am on the smaller side, and after going through IVF, I was extremely bloated. By 8 weeks I lived in leggings and sweats and by 10w I was in maternity pants.

Re: How many weeks were you when your pants got too tight?

This pregnancy I went into maternity pants at 10w. With DS I was 16w.
