I just recently bought a few items..this is my second LO so I started to show a little early. I just got a few shirts and a couple pairs of pants because I seem to be gaining all of this baby weight in and around my waist and not much anywhere else. lol.

I am not in maternity clothes, but a few years ago I lost 15 lbs and I am in those clothes again! I gained 8lbs in the first few weeks of being pregnant and havent gained any more but every day the pants get a bit tighter.
We are still keeping it a secret so I am down to about 3 shirts that dont give me away of course I am sure that folks are wondering why I keep wearing the same clothes to work everyday!

I am, and have been since about week 11, but this is my 3rd baby. I popped early, but I don't think I've grown since then.

I am actually very happy that I ordered the maternity clothes that I did, when I did. I ordered them on thursday and they came Monday and yesterday...How about I "popped" yesterday?? lol I have the tummy to fit in my clothes now.

I have been wearing the pants since week 11 or so. This is my first but I was so sick they were the only things that made me feel good. I am 17 weeks now and sort of showing, some shirts show it more than others.

I am going Monday to shop for some maternity pants at least. Every week I have less and less pairs of pants to pick from, makes it nearly impossible to get ready for work.

I'm down to one pair of low rise jeans that I can still button. Others with higher waist I can fit legs/butt into but I feel to button them would be restricting of my tummy, so I actually haven't been wearing them.

Plan on shopping for maternity capris soon.

I did buy some empire waist tops that are tight on the chest and then expand on the tummy, which isn't too bad because these kinds of tops don't look like obvious maternity clothes. So I can still almost hide me being pregnant...or so I like to think!

oh yea lol I'm doing the same thing
Wearing my old jeans unbuttoned, with the belly band to keep them from falling down and wearing loose tops that come down below my butt!

So we are all dressing alike, haha

thank god for the belly band!

I've been in maternity pants since week 12 and this is my first, but I really hate things tight around my waist. The pants have been great!! Unfortunately, a lot of my shirts aren't long enough to cover all of the elastic top of the maternity pants, so I had to buy a couple shirts as well, even though I don't fill them out very well yet. I've been showing since 13 weeks and just getting bigger each week! (however, I doubt people who didn't know me well could tell for sure I was pregnant until this last week
