I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
and start wearing maternity clothes!
I bought a couple things at Destination Maternity. A very nice LIFer gave me some things as well.
NOTHING fits. I have a pair of yoga pants that don't even fit. I am so overly bloated. DH even said I look pregnant (I think I just look fat).
Maternity clothes are just so much more comfortable. I just can't believe I'm going to start at only 10 weeks!

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
Don't worry Colleen! You were super super thin and your body is doing what it needs to take care of the baby! 
I tried on a pair of maternity jeans at h&m yesterday and it was such a bad experience. I have always had a hard time finding pants that fit ( skinny waist and wide hips ) and the only jeans h&m had were skinny leg and my legs aren't that skinny lol
Where is a good place to find maternity jeans.?
Colleen I wish it was warm enough to wear dresses I have some that I think will work. I live all way out east and the mall is over an hour away but I'm scared to order online without trying on

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
I have (or well had) a small waist and wide hips...but I think my waist caught up to my hips now thanks to bloat lol. My mom got me a pair from old navy that I really like.
Dresses are perfect!! Too bad the weather this week is gonna be bad, but after that I think I'll try to get some maternity spring/summery dresses. I have a bunch of maxi dresses that may still work (even though they aren't maternity). Order a bunch of cotton dresses online- they are usually sized s-m-l and are flattering on everyone then you dont have to worry about returning!

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
I bit the bullet this weekend too. I wore a dress (non maternity but elsastic empire waist) at a wedding today and there's no denying the belly.
Dr said I can't work out so of course Im feeling bulges all over my body-not just my belly 
I have to say that maternity clothes are sooo much more comfortable than my regular clothes with the belly band.
Good luck Colleen! Im sure you look beautiful!

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
I just ordered some pants from Motherhood online..... the thought of having to put on dress pants with a button and zipper ONE MORE DAY to work was driving me nuts  It hurts..... I popped already.
I think the more comfy pants and some looser tops will work great.
Did anyone go bra shopping yet? My boobs grew one cup size, too!

I hear ya! Except I was a 36DD and now I had to get a 36DDD...... I didn't even know that existed. I went to a bra store and the 38DD fit funny and big, so I got the 36 triple instead but really??????? I am only 8 weeks pregnant!

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
I bought a lot of stretch type clothes like stretchy dress pants for work, and stretchy waist skirts. I wouldn't stress your body is doing what it has to do!

Re: I think I'm gonna bite the bullet-
I'm officially in maternity clothes too! Last weekend my mom and I went to Roosevelt Field and shopped for a couple of hrs! I bought jeans at Macys (Mavi) a pair at the gap, shorts at JC Penny, then went to Old Navy and bought two pair of Jean capris and Linen capris then a couple of tops at Target!
My cousin dropped off two totes filled with clothes too. All size Medium so I won't fit into those for a couple of months.
Although the shopping trip wasn't as fun as they used to be, I feel much more comfortable!
