Week 10 : Shop till you drop (your pants)
I started buying maternity clothes the second my pants felt a little tight. It didn’t matter that the reason they were tight was that I had just consumed a large meal; I was pregnant and needed an entire new wardrobe!
Only problem? All those large jeans belly panels aren’t meant for a 10 weeks pregnant woman that consumed an entire cake because “the baby needed it.”
Shopping at a maternity store before you’re really showing is somewhat embarrassing. It’s kind of like all those times I bought bridal magazines without a ring on my finger: You know most people think you’re just jumping the gun.
Every time I’d walk into one of those establishments, I’d try my best not to make eye contact with the women with big bellies. Even though, in theory, we belonged to the same club, it seemed they were a little more qualified to search for pants with belly panels than I.
But, what’s a girl to do? Invest in a nine-month supply of sweatpants? Walk around with my pants unbuttoned, just waiting for the day they fall down to my knees?
No, I’d buy my pants and try them on with the “fake belly” pillows they leave in the dressing rooms.
Just don’t ask me to model my new outfits outside for everyone to see.

LMAO! That is so me! I am now showing at 19 weeks but my clothes haven't fit well for at least a month now. Going to work with your pants unbuttoned just doesn't feel professional at all! So my mom finally bought me some clothes at Target's maternity section b/c I was so pitiful.

This made me crack up, my best friend and I went to the much dreaded maternity clothing store last night. I have been fighting it, but my clothes keep shrinking and I need bigger ones, te same problem occured...they weren't meant for someone only 10 weeks. So, I bout a pair of "stylish" sweatpants, and a pair of gouchos...(which I hated the looks of up until last night when that is all that would fit right.) too funny...once again, I'm not alone.

I found this awsome thing at motherhood materity called a belly sleeve it goes over your unbuttoned unzipped pants it covers the opening and holds your pants up too! It's AWSOME!!

You can also rig a rubber band through your jean button hole and wrap it around the button for extra room. It doesn't even show!

I, too, just bought my first pair of maternity pants at only 10wks! The saleslady at the store was sooo welcoming. I told her my dilemma of shopping so early, but she told me women start shopping for mat clothes as early as 6wks, or women who aren't even pregnant yet, but are trying to conceive. I even ended up with pants that have the extra big panel and I LOVE THEM!! Everything is smooth, I don't ever want to back to regular pants! To all the newly pregnant women out there, get out and do some shopping! 9mths goes fast!

This made me laugh so hard!
It's weird, because my MIL took me out to shop for maternity wear this past weekend, at exactly 10 weeks along. I cracked up in the dressing room because there were some pants that were absolutely gigantic, but I know I'll need them soon! It was actually kind of fun...I'm looking forward to showing now!
Comment on 6th Nov '06 @ 1:28 pmThis comment is 1
That is SO FUNNY!! OMG! That is me talking! I feel exactly like your article. My clothes are feeling tight and uncomfortable and even more so after eating. I walk around with my pants unbuttoned and sometimes unzipped as well. I want so bad to wear my maternity clothes and go shopping for new maternity clothes but I'm embarassed go shopping incase people ask me, 'how far along are you' uhh, l'm only 10 weeks but I look BIGGER! I've been hoping that I'm actually further along or maybe there's an extra baby in there somewhere. Then my size would be justified.:-)

I say, don't feel embarrassed. I am only 10 weeks and wearing maternity clothes already. I did the rubberband trick and it worked well for a while. I also bought the belly band but I didn't like it. It rides up under my bustline (which is NO fun in public) Anyway, this is my 3rd child and it is normal to show faster with more prgnancies. Also, everyone is different, some women just show very early. Check out the calendar girls page, I am bigger than some of the 18 weekers and smaller than some of the 8 weekers. Bottom line, do what you are comfortable with, God knows we go throught enough just being prgnant.

I'm 10 weeks now and at about 8 weeks, I just couldn't get thru the day in my jeans. So, I went to babyGap and found some great jeans in their 'Anytime' line. I felt so much more comfortable and fashionable at the same time. So, there is something out there for everyone - go for comfort! Congrats everyone.

I just went through that for the first time last night! I felt so fat and knew I must be showing to everyone else in the world in my 'normal' jeans, but as soon as I walked into the dressing room, I felt terrible. At 10 weeks, I felt so weird trying on huge pants and having people tell me I was actually going to need them.
Comment on 4th Dec '06 @ 6:19 amThis comment is 1
I thought I was the only one who felt this way!! I'm so glad that I'm not alone. I'm only 10 weeks but my pants are just not comfortable. I feel like I'm going to burst any second! I bought my first pair of maternity jeans and I was soo embarassed. I keep thinking these women must think I'm crazy. LOL
Comment on 6th Dec '06 @ 12:17 pmThis comment is 1
Ughh...thank god I found this website...I'm about ten weeks and my belly is growing...my pants don't fit that well and they are uncomfortable. I feel like I'm exagerating, but its the truth. I'm embarrased to go to the maternity store, so I bought some regulear pants just in a large size.
Comment on 6th Dec '06 @ 1:01 pmThis comment is 1
I know how you all feel! 10 weeks and nothing fits, a cheap way of doing it is to buy the next size up from charity shops each time the waistband gets tighter, until you're big enough for 'big maternity pants'!
Comment on 14th Dec '06 @ 11:52 amThis comment is 1
wow but looking like you swallowed a water mellon i really need help everyone i have met is like dang your big already but everyone that has seen the 9 weeks sono said that i will have a bigggg baby... should i be sad? i was 174 before i'm scared to see what i am now
Comment on 22nd Dec '06 @ 1:28 pmThis comment is 1
I'm only at about 8 weeks but i'm just gonna save some money for the baby on the way and use the whole rubberband theory Jenn had wrote. Wish everyone luck!!!
Comment on 2nd Jan '07 @ 11:34 pmThis comment is 1
earlier in my pregnancy i was so excited that would be showing soon that i went to the store to go and buy me some maternity clothes....come to find out they arent exactly the cheapest price in the world.....atleast for us cheap military people that dont make all that much money....i find that if you buy a size or 2 up in regular jeans you end up saving money....because after you give birth you'll be able to fit into those regular jeans alot quiker and it will make you feel like your loosing the weight alot faster....also if you have any friends that were recently prego you can see if they have any good hand me downs....believe me you'll fit into more than you think...

At 10 weeks, I can still, "suck it in," and be comfortable. The rubber-band idea is great, and I'm going to try it as soon as I get home today! I also just bought a Belly Band (called, "Bella Band"), and I love it: I fold it in half so it doesn't ride up from my tiny tummy, and it feels like a gentle hug, instead of a firm squeeze. If you're thinking about a belly band, search for boutiques in your area that carry them (Google Bella Band). The shopkeeper let me open one up and try it on right there to see if I liked it! I got the one with lace at the bottom (cute!), and my pregnancy is still, "my little secret."

I'm also 10 weeks, adn I'm having the same problem. My old clothes are too tight and uncomfortable to wear anymore, yet I'm not ready for maternity. I'm going out to buy those black elastic dress pants that you can find in the womens section of most department stores. They're comfortable, yet professional. Good luck ladies!

I have found something to solve all of your problems! It is called Belly Ups. They are mini-suspenders to help hold your pants up. They sell them on BabyCenter and also at www.bellyups.com. I can't live without these - I wear them almost every day!

OMG!!!! I am 10 weeks and I just did this today!!!! I can't stand living everyday in sweats. It makes me feel frunmpy. I wanted to look cute and be comfortable with my ever-expanding waistline, so I did the unthinkable 1st trimester deed......I went to the maternity store! AND.....I spent $200!!! But, hey, I'm pregnant! I can do whatever I WANT!!!! Right?!

I thought I was the only one, seriously. I miscarried in June at 5 months with my first pregnancy and I didn't gain much too early. But this pregnancy I am 10 weeks and I look like I'm about that x 2. But honestly, sometimes its hard to find maternity clothes that you like and for different occasions that dont cost 100 bucks for just one shirt.
Comment on 9th Feb '07 @ 7:07 amThis comment is 1
I'm barely even showing but definately getting to the point where I can barely button my pants and i want to go shop over there but i dont' want those women to think i am crazy or something cause you can barely see my little pudge

I bought my first maternity pants just last week at 10 weeks... lol I was pretty embarrassed. Now I buy most of it online and it doesn't matter if it's a little big or not the perfect size... It will fit EVENTUALLY!!

omfg!!! I'm so glad that I found this website!! Im 10 weeks and showing and my pants are so tight that it hurts for me to wear them! Soo I sucked it up and bought a pair of maternity pants! All of friends are prego but way further then me and they all laughed at me when I told them I bought some maternity pants! So Im glad that Im not the only one out there! thanks ladies and goodluck!!
Comment on 22nd Mar '07 @ 3:15 pmThis comment is 1
Re all the comments above- same. I am eleven weeks and my waistband is cutting into me as we speak. However, I cannot figure out if this from the pregnancy or weight gain because my eating is so bizarre and out of whack- I am nauseated and starving at the same time.
Comment on 23rd Mar '07 @ 1:58 pmThis comment is 1
haha is it wrong that Ive already bought pants at 5 weeks because I'm CONVINCED that i already show... I know i dont... it just made it more real wearing belly panel pants and LONG stretchy t shirts
Comment on 23rd Mar '07 @ 2:03 pmThis comment is 1
I'm SOOO glad that I found this site too, I have a few friends who are expecting who are further than me and the little size 0 types, me being a 10 not pregnant and my third pregnancy has my clothes not fitting so well but this pregnancy is soooo different I never showed or felt pregnant this early I think it's because this was planned but still I was getting annoyed but this trick worked for me, buy one of those belts that have the half circles if that makes sense the ones you fold over in the circle things you can rock your norm jeans with them unziped and unbottoned and NO ONES knows and you don't look like you dropped a load like you would in maternity at this point lol, those bands are great but I feel like I'm going to lose my pants. Only thing that sucks is I'm gaining all over and I hate this fat cow feeling hopefully soon I'll be out of that feeling and feeling good, great and pregnant and fashionable too :) CONGRATS to you all and thanks for your great comments MWAH

As far as shirts gap has really baggy styles in all clearanced $2.97. Cause they look like crap on regular peopkle but are great for pregnant woman. I'm so Huge!! WHY?? I"m going to be so giant by the end.

This is too funny..yet so true!! im on my 11th wk, and what i did was i bought those pants/skirts that stretch as u get bigger! they fit just fine now and they have alot of stretch in them...

After reading this article and looking at the photos of the other girls I am starting to feel better. I am 9weeks along and feel so fat. Both my sisters and mother didn't start wearing maternity clothes until their forth or fifth month! My low-rise Guess jeans still fit but that is about it. My tops don't fit anymore because I have gone from a B cup to a C cup within this past month. I have now had to buy maternity tops at least or resign myself to getting a bigger size shirt that I may or may not fit after the pregnancy and definately not when I am really showing. My wardrobe is shrinking at such a rapid pace I see myself wearing the same five outfits to work each week. I don't care what the ladies at the store think but what the other ladies that I know think. I feel like pulling my hair out.

I'm almost at 11 weeks, and before I was pregnant I had a small pooch any way. So - I haven't been able to tell if I was actually getting bigger, or if it was just my pooch. My pants were tighter and I had to unbutton them, just like the previous ladies... The only pants I can wear semi-comfortably are the few low-rise pants. These comments helped me feel like I'm getting bigger because my baby is, not because I'm getting fat myself. I think the rubber band idea is great for those days when I need to wear my work oufits. Thanks ladies and congratulations!!!

OMG, this was so great, lol. I'm 10 weeks, and I thought I was just eating too much. I don't remember needing bigger clothes when I was pregnant with my daughter(7years). I really need new everything! Especially panties ha ha. Everything is so tight on me.
Comment on 23rd Apr '07 @ 9:30 amThis comment is 1
I am so glad that i read this article!! Here i was just as you ladies were thinking Omg! I am over-eating! This is my second and first time round didnt need any maternity clothes until around four months (ish) but already i am bursting out of my favourite jeans. Funnily enough they were too big for me before i got pregnany! I am just so glad i read all of your comments because had i not i would still be thinking that i am over eating and feel fat! Although i think i will still feel fat until my bump gets big enouogh for maternity wear!! Good luck to all of you preggers ladies out there!!x

I am 11 weeks. I'm not "showing" so much as rreally bloated and barfy and not into tight waistbands or control tops - I don't care if its 'too early' - bring on the elastic waist.
I just bought a pair of demi-panel pants on sale at the Gap and its the best $25 I could have spent. My bloated belly is SO much happier and they look better, and maybe I'm crazy on hormones but I think they actually look better because they aren't digging in like my regular pants were and creating lumps. They fit my butt and legs just like my regular size, and there is room for belly growth, so I'll get lots of wear out of them for months to come.
I consider it an investment. Wearing your regular clothes when you're too big for them will stretch them out and make them look weird when its time to get back into it.
A good minimizer bra will help get more wear out of blouses and t-shirts and support the twins.

With my first child I sported the sweat pants and jogging pants the whole nine months b/c I hate the belly panels. This time they have the under the belly panels that don't actually have to touch your belly button (anything touching my beely button grosses me out, not sure why I'm just weird)so needless to say I was the not so pregnant looking girl in the motherhood maternity looking for preggy pants a bit too early...only my normal pants won't button? What are ou suppose to do when your normal pants are too small and the preggy pants just fall to your ankles?

Than k God for this website it takes care of any insecurities. I was wondering why I was showing at 10 weeks. All I do is throw up and I still see my belly getting bigger. Nice to know I am not alone.
Comment on 25th Jun '07 @ 11:39 amThis comment is 1
That is funny, I am prego with my 4th and my husband tells me I got all the clothes from before so I should just wear them, but they are way out of date and almost embarrasing so now I just wear all his basketball shorts and t-shirts to get my point across!!
Comment on 2nd Jul '07 @ 7:54 amThis comment is 1
This is my 5th pregnancy. They have such great transition wear now I say get a few pairs of pants it will help you not feel so fat. I've noticed the women who try to get by forever with their normal clothes are the ones who complain they are fat the most. You can also go to the thrift store or some childrens resale shops and buy the under the belly panel a size down, so it stays up. in my part of the country I really don't find maternity to be more expensive than regular clothes.
Comment on 4th Jul '07 @ 1:20 pmThis comment is 1
haha. This sounds just like me. I wore maternity pants when I was only like 14 weeks along and they were falling off of me!! ((they are comfortable though)) I would give anything to have them falling off of me now that I am 24 weeks and it seems they are too tight!!!!!
Comment on 15th Jul '07 @ 6:15 pmThis comment is 1
I just wanted to say how relieved I am to have found this site and thread. I am 10 weeks, too, and had no idea there were so many others like me, out there! I've been wanting to get maternity pants for a couple weeks now, just because I think they'd be way more comfortable. You ladies have talked me into it!
Comment on 17th Jul '07 @ 1:10 pmThis comment is 1
Why in the world would you buy the 1960s big-belly-panel pants at 10 weeks (or at all, for that matter) when there are so many other options actually MEANT for that awkward "my regular clothes don't fit but I don't have a big pregnant belly yet either" in-between stage!?
Anyone who's been really been pregnant should know by now that there are all sorts of options in the tummy department ... semi-panels that come half-way up, roll down yoga pant versions and, my personal favorite, those that look like "normal" jeans but have added elastic backing (but look "normal" from the front) or a thin two-inch-high band of soft cotton-covered elastic rather than the regular constricting button closure. Either are meant to go below your growing belly, so they generally have very few fit problems.
There are even entire lines devoted to the first two trimesters and intended to carry over postpartum! And most are no more pricey than the full-panel jobs this woman's writing about. Old Navy has plenty of affordable, even attractive items meant for this stage exactly. And quite frankly, if you like the under-the-belly type like I do, they'll generally last you through your entire pregnancy and into the first few months with baby, until your pre-baby clothes feel comfortable again. I've had three children and am pregnant with my fourth, so I'm definitely speaking from experience here. LOL
But what is up with the dated pregnancy humor? I mean, sure, it's funny in an "I've never been pregnant but if you were in 1982 I can see how that would be funny" sort of way, but it's not most women's current experience with pregnancy fashion -- which is making HUGE strides (I prefer my maternity wardrobe to my "normal" one! LOL). Frankly, this article seems a bit misleading for many first-time-moms.

lol girl thats so me rite now im only 10 weeks an 5 days im so nervous about buying maternity clothes wen my my belly aint showing but none of my pants me!! an then i have highschool starting in 3 weeks an yea i have no pregnancy clothes i think ima break down lol!!
Comment on 6th Aug '07 @ 8:22 pmThis comment is 1
LOL! People looked @ me funny a couple of weeks ago because I am pretty petite,my problem is not the pants yet,but my boobs! I've always been pretty well endowed and now with this being my second baby,my breasts are getting larger quicker for some reason! The Sales Lady was laughing because I'm a 34 around but they don't make 34 f's and up...which is probably what I need,so I settled for the 36 E! Good Luck to everyone with a similar prob.!

lol. i thought i only needed bigger sized jeans. but gosh darn it, i feel like im gettin bigger each week. so here i am sitten with my button loose. ha. i need to hit up the maternity clothes. hehe...
Comment on 22nd Aug '07 @ 12:42 pmThis comment is 1
That's so funny I have maternity clothes from my first pregancy but of course you need at least a few new things each time!!!For this pregancy and my first I bought maternity clothes really early because I was so excited to wear them and show off my little belly... the ladies at the store always said the same thing to me though... ARE YOU BUYING FOR SOMEONE ELSE... haha I was like no myself and then I would get the look like yeah right you don't need them. grr :)
Comment on 28th Aug '07 @ 10:59 amThis comment is 1
I am 10 weeks and my mom took me to buy maternity clothes because mine were already getting tight and digging into my already nauseated belly. I would rather have maternity clothes that were a little too loose than wearing my husbands shorts as he suggested. To my surprise there were women also shopping who had smaller bellies than me.
Comment on 6th Sep '07 @ 5:59 pmThis comment is 1
it's not weird, i went to motherhood at 9 weeks to buy some big belly'd pants. i explained that i know i'm not big yet, but i don't wanna bum around another pregnancy in pajama pants.. she was very nice and helped me find the right fit i was looking for... also to where i gained alot in my theighs last time, she helped me find some that i could compfortably grow into! she didnt treat me any different then any other pregnant woman to walk into the store. i felt funny at first, not having a huge buddah belly... but with the fake belly in the dressin room to try on, you know there are other moms using it too~
Comment on 7th Sep '07 @ 12:37 pmThis comment is 1
LMAO!!!..I thought of me too...I had a c-sestion with my first child,(who is 6) and the fat there never really left it..so the need for maternity clothes is there but embarrasement is also....

I am so glad I found this site. I'm pregnant with my third and am 10 weeks pregnant. My husband finally asked me why I was making myself uncomfortable and he broke out my maternity clothes and said here your pregnant with our third just be comfortable. Love him. You just need to feel comfortable in your clothes, your pregnant enjoy it.

This made my husband laugh pretty hard, He says it sounds like his baby, I eat everything and blame it on the baby.
Comment on 24th Sep '07 @ 11:45 pmThis comment is 1
OMG! I am in the SAME boat. But get this, I started shopping last week at 7 weeks pregnant. I think I may have just been getting a bit bigger to start with, but I don't fit in ANY of my pants anymore. So I bought a whole new wardrobe. I felt so depressed that my butt would actually get that big. But that are better than uncomfortable jeans you can't button.
Comment on 8th Oct '07 @ 10:01 amThis comment is 1
I can totally relate. I'm 10 weeks and started wearing too large maternity pants this week because I've gained 5 lbs and my regular pants are a little too tight to be sitting all day. When I went shopping last weekend I didn't feel a bit bad about it - I want to be comfortable! It does help that I'm carrying twins though - eases the guilt a little. I think I've finally surrendered to the fact that I'm going to be huge with two babies, and to that I say "bring on the spandex!" :-)

I know what you mean. I'm so excited that i'm pregnant that i'm going around looking at baby clothes and maternity clothes.. but I have no baby with me and i'm only 10 weeks and I can only see i'm showing because I don't really wear tight stuff, lol. Sooooo I wish I was showing more so I could feel a little more comfortable, haha not with the belly but at the stores.
Comment on 15th Oct '07 @ 9:12 pmThis comment is 1
Hi girls, My jeans were getting really uncomfortable at seven weeks, thought i was to to early for maternity wear. My Mum decided we should go clothes shopping. I went along convinced nothing would fit, but Mothercare and Mamas and papas both do a 'early term range' they are so comfortable and discreet. They look just like normal jeans but have stretchy panels at the front pockets, so much nicer than the belly pants. Good luck Girls xxx

You are sooo not alone. When I decided to get pregnant I gained 10 pounds in a week. LOL So needless to say I was showing but it wasnt a baby! At 8 weeks I bought all new maternity clothes because look at it this away. You are not going to get smaller for at least 6 more months so get the clothes and wear them proudly!
Comment on 2nd Nov '07 @ 6:54 amThis comment is 1
This is so true. I hit 10 wks tomorrow and i'm still a little too small for maternity pants but a bit big thanks to my big hips and a large butt that seem to have expanded to fit into my typical JR. pants, however the womens pants at the store on base hit about the belly button- SO, they don't button. I left the store with 3 pairs of track pants. Oh well, all i can do is giggle right now.
Comment on 7th Nov '07 @ 11:28 amThis comment is 1
I am about 9 1/2 weeks now and I still kinda fit into my regular pants, unless I'm sitting down then they are too tight. I still have my maternity pants left from when I was pregnant with my son. I haven't tried them on yet. I'm too scared. I haven't even told my boss I'm pregnant yet. Not sure if I'll still have my job. I knew I was pregnant when I applied.
Comment on 18th Nov '07 @ 3:08 pmThis comment is 1
I really only buy maternity tops. My skirts usually fit untill the very last 2 months so I usually just borrow some from my sisters in law. That helps to save a little money.
Comment on 4th Jan '08 @ 5:39 pmThis comment is 1
I felt like this yesterday but i am quite large so i got some pants witht he belly shield so they wont fall off and some shirts which right now make me look fat, not pregnant!

I'm 10 weeks pregnant and have been wearing maternity pants since I was 7 weeks pregnant. My pants just didn't fit. This is my 6th pregnancy (only 2nd child due to miscarriages) and I think that may have played a role. I too am really embarrased to be wearing maternity clothes so early but I swear my regular pants cut off the circultation to my legs!! hahaha I think once I hit 16 weeks I'll feel better about myself...i hope

I am only 9 wks...I wear a size 0 or 2 depending on the jean. I am starting to show also. This is going to be my second child. I showed very early with my first one(4 yrs.) But the Gap has hidden panel jeans that look exactly like my normal low cut jeans. You can wear them your entire pregnancy. I can still wear my normal jeans but my shirts are not fitting like I like them anymore so I am actually going shopping today for some tops.
