I am 14 weeks pregnant with my second child and my bump is quite noticable. I had to really squeeze into my jeans and my tummy shows at the bottom of my tops, yet my maternity jeans are a tiny bit too big. Would it be ok for me to wear maternity clothes yet? Would people think it was funny or weird? When did you start wearing maternity clothes?

When your clothes are pinching/uncomfortable. You are showing earlier this time because the uterus has already been stretched, so it expands quicker. Go for the comfy clothes.

Today's maternity clothes don't really even look like maternity, so how are people really going to know?
I needed a new wardrobe when I was about 4 months pregnant, so I figured I'd go ahead and get the "dreaded" maternity clothes. I found a lot of cute stuff at Target and to this day, 13 months after I gave birth, I still wear some of them because they are comfortable and look decent.

well with my second, my first was only 4 months old when I got pregnant, so I was still in maternity. Now I am on the 3rd and trying to not wear them until I am about 5 months. I am going on 7 weeks now. But I say wear them whenever you want to! Who cares what anyone else thinks, you need to be comfy! You know, most maternity stores sell these extensions for your pants for the front so you can wear them a bit longer. Give those a try, they are inexpensive.

Go into maternity clothes as soon as you feel uncomfortable in you ordinary clothes. No one else will notice particularly, and what does it matter if they do? I've got four children and it varied when I started - from about 8/9 weeks to 20 weeks depending on the clothes. You might as well wear them, and enjoy them, because you won't need to wear them for long after you've had your baby!
All the best!

There's nothing wrong with wearing your maternity clothes now. If your regular clothes don't fit, you should stop wearing them. I wore maternity clothes when I was about three months pregnant. I just gave birth 6 weeks ago and is still wearing maternity clothes. My old clothes doesn't fit anymore. Hopefully I can go back to my old clothes in a couple more months.

Dont worry about what other people think and do what is best for you. If you are not comfortable then do what you need to be comfortable. I never owned any maternity clothes and what clothes i had I managed with. It did help that leggins were the big fashion of the time so they could stretch a long way. But it should all be about comfort.

I agree. Jen, that's rude. often times women folk purely prefer to speak to different women folk, somewhat whether that's their first being pregnant. How might you experience? i'm specific you have had a question somebody theory became into stupid too.... besides, whenever you experience tender! a brilliant number of the maternity outfits out are fairly lovable, attempt holiday spot Maternity. i'm very almost 17 weeks and placed away my reg. pants some week in the past. the version is surely substantive in how tender you experience!

I started wearing maternity clothes when I was 4 months preggy. I still can wear some of my other clothes from before though. I'm a very skinny person and can squeeze in most anything. But if you can't wear anything else wear them. No one will complain as long as you have clothes on. lol. Good luck.

Maternity clothes come in small, medium, large, and XL. You can get a different size that will fit you now. But you are pregnant it is better to ware louser fitting clothes anyway. I really don't think anyone will care. They should all think you are still cute no matter what. If you want to ware them then do.

I started around 15-16 weeks, with my first. My maternity clothes were a bit big, but it was more comfortable than squeezing and squshing into my regular jeans.
Besides...if anyone gives you trouble...take'em out! One glorious right you get during pregnancy!
Best wishes!
P.s. You'll be happy when Christmas rolls around to have the stretchy pants! :)
