Not quite ready for maternity clothes

Not quite ready for maternity clothes

I'm 8w+ and I'm having a hard time getting dressed each day. I have crazy nausea so anything too tight on the middle makes it worse. I tried breaking out my old maternity chinos in various colors but they are so big they fall down. My maternity jeans look good but the elastic around the belly makes my nausea worse. I'm down to stretch pants and few dressy pants.

I'm trying to get to week 12 before telling work so trying to hide my tummy is getting challenging.

I'd like to start wearing my stretch pants with riding boots which was my staple during my first pregnancy with maternity tops that had empire waists. Problem is I don't want to wear the empire waist tops yet, I need "normal" tops to hide behind but all my tops are too short. Wear can I get tunic length button downs or maybe light sweaters? I kind of tall and I would like my butt covered.

TIA

Re: Not quite ready for maternity clothes

You could do like sheer, loose button downs over leggings and a tank, like a tunic. I would just buy them a few sizes too big. Also cocoon-like sweaters over a tank could be cute.
