When did you start wearing them? 1st pregnancy? Subsequent pregnancies? How tall are you? I am into seeing if my assumptions are right and this board is such a great resource!!!

With the 1st I was about 6 months. Probably should have at about 5 months, but maternity clothes were sooooo ugly then. With the second it was about 5 months. With this one I am right inbetween right now so I say by 4 months for sure. And I am 5'2".

this is my first pregnancy and i was in maternity pants at about 10 weeks. exclusively maternity pants at about 13 or 14 weeks and just now getting almost exclusively into maternity shirts.

ETA: i'm 5'4" and i got pregnant at about 135-140 lbs

When I got pregnant, I was 5'6" and 140 lbs. I began wearing maternity clothing at 16 weeks.

I'm 5'9", and with DD (the one and only so far) I started wearing maternity pants at about 7 months and shirts about the same time. I didn't wear much maternity clothes because they were so ugly and expensive, so I just bought regular clothes (mainly pants) in a bigger size.

I still wear most of the same clothes.

With my son, I was about 130, 5'9" when I got pregnant...started wearing maternity around 4 or 5 months. This time I was same weight....but I'll be in maternity by 4 months for sure, maybe sooner.

22wks with my first.
Had to go into small low waisted pants at 6-7wks with #2
And I'm just moving into my fat pants and smaller maternity shirts with this one as of last week (6wks)

I would say about 11-12 weeks. Right around there. I wore my normal clothes until about 9 or 10ish weeks, then I started to get really sick and just vegged out in jammies and sweats. Then when my gma came out to visit, she brought out some maternity clothes for me. thank God she did!! I tried to get dressed in my old jeans the day after she got there cuz she wanted to go out for breakfast, and I couldnt button or zip them!

I didnt think that I would show that early because i was a big girl to begin with, but I did show. I had a really cute little bump that I hadnt even noticed before. lol

ETA: I'm 5'3 1/2" (had to add the half ;))

oh if you are having problems like buttoning or zipping your jeans but aren't quite ready for maternity wear check out the bella band.

I started wearing Maternity clothes around 4 months. I'm 5'2".

I am 5'5 and 115LBS, I actually noticed that I was up to 119-120 yesterday (I'm at 5 weeks) But, it seems to have gone away this morning. I have a little belly and I think I will be able to get away with normal clothes until around 6-7 months.

Breanna: 26-27 weeks

Johnny: 9-10 weeks

Evan: 13 weeks but I could have put it off. I could have bought larges instead of my reg. size but I decided to just go for the maternity clothes. I bought a size 6 in the kind that zip and button but could have done a 4. They were really big on me even with the adjustable band pulled all the way back. The complete elastic band ones I couldn't wear. Even the size 2 was too big.

Not until I think 6-7 months with Madison and probably 5-6 months with Hayden. I am 5'9". Although I did cheat a little I guess... I wore Jason's pants for a short while with Madison before moving into maternity pants and I had some pants a size bigger than my regular pants that I wore with Hayden. That was when I was in the in between stage... Too big for my pants but too small for maternity pants.

I started wearing maternity pants about 10 weeks and shirts about 16 weeks. I was 5'2 140lbs when I started.

I was wearing maternity shirts before 20 weeks, pants I started wearing them at about 24-25 weeks I guess. I needed them sooner, but couldn't find any comfy ones that fit. I'd rather wear sweats tho.

I started at around 14-16 weeks..I am 5 even. I was wearing the in between pants only though..the ones with the stretch band in the back only.
