Mommas out there: How far into your pregnancy did you begin to show and when did you have to start wearing maternity clothes? I'm in my first pregnancy and have had people tell me different things.

if you are thinner ... you will be able to tell sometimes as early as the 3rd month, and if not more like 4 to 5 for most
you will probably start needing maternity clothes around your 4th or 5th month though
congrats!

With my first one, I started wearing maternity clothes at 7 weeks. I was already showing and my other clothes would not fit. With my later pregnancies, I did not show so soon, so I was 8 or 9 weeks along before I wore maternity clothes.

Well I'm currently 29 weeks pregnant with my first. For me I had to start wearing maternity shirts in my 4th month, not due to my belly, but my breasts had gotten so big maternity shirts were the only things they could really fit into. As far as maternity pants, I didn't start wearing those till the end of my 5th month. Everyone is different so it all depends on your body before the baby. Congratulations on your pregnancy, good luck and God bless.

I started showing at 2 months. I had to wear maternity pants by almost 3 months and maternity shirts by 4 months. It depends on your body type and how much weight you gain. When you can't fit into your own clothes anymore, then it's time to get some maternity clothes.

I was very thin when I got pregnant with my first (size 4-6), and even so, I didn't start to show unil I was about five and a half months, as soon as I started to show, my tummy grew day by day, so I was into maternity wear by 6 months.
With my second, I was a size 10 (never got my figure back after my 1st - lol), but I was showing by 12 weeks, in maternity wear by 3 and a half months (14 weeks). My tummy is no bigger now in the last trimester (I'm 31 weeks) than it was with my first, but I did show much earlier.
Congrats! :-)

I was well into my sixth month of pregnancy when I started showing, before that nobody even believed that I was pregnant. Then it was like one morning I woke up and poof, there was a big belly. My neighbor was already having to wear maternity clothes by 3 months, and by 9 months her belly looked like she had 5 kids in there instead of 1.

i didnt begin to show until around 6months, and thats when i started wearing maternity clothes.
but you may show earlier or later its completley indivual - also you can start to wear maternity clothes whenever you like, do what ever you have to do to make you feel comfortable.
