Elastic holding my pants together already??

Holy cow!

I have been wearing yoga pants around the house the last few days but I was getting ready to take my older DS On a field trip and I couldn't do up my jeans. I had to loop an elastic through the button hole and around the button.

I know it's just bloating but holy belly batman!

I keep feeling like my jeans are getting too small! It is SO nice and comfy to wear yoga-style pants! I have one newer pair of jeans that have a higher rise (even though they're not supposed to ) and are much more comfy. My mid-rise jeans are NOT so comfy anymore! I know it's my standard pattern to gain about 5lbs at this stage, but if I don't start throwing up and losing it all again, I'll definitely be trading my wardrobe in the very near future!

Jeans, no, not so comfy. I'm already living in my stretchy type pants. I especially notice that things seem ok in the morning but by later afternoon/early evening it is just terrible!

yep, fourth baby here, nd my first inclination that I might be pregnant was sudden pooching out about a week after ovulation. I had just lost some baby weight before Christmas, and gotten into my size 10s. I noticed about 2 weeks ago that my size 12s were tight, and that I had a bulge more like at and above my waistband, and that was higher than my belly bulge had been just before Christmas. It didnt make sense that the weight would come back in a different place. I dismissed it at the time, but it turned out to be the case.

Im in 14s now.

In my 3rd pregnancy, I started out in size 8. At 6 weeks I was in size 10s, at 7 weeks size 12s, at 8 weeks size 14, and at 9 weeks, maternity pants. At 11 weeks I needed maternity shirts too.

So yeah, Im digging through my stuff this weekend, because once I leave the 14s I dont ahve anything else! Im only 5 1/2 weeks now.

My jeans are barelllllllllly fitting still, and it is only week 6. : That and no one knows yet, how am I going to explain wearing maternity when I am only 2 months pregnant. :

I love that elastic trick! I'm currently living in pj bottoms or the jeans I bought after M was born and the weight didn't come off as fast as with my other births -- and then I got sick shortly after buying them and lost about 10 lbs So now they're comfortably accomodating this bloating.
