6 months.

by durhamjk1, May 03, 2008 06:25PM
I was wondering the same thing!  I am 11 weeks and haven't gained any weight yet - but I would like to buy up ahead of time if I can, while they are on sale from last season.  I am due late Nov - so I will probably need late summer/fall maternity.

8 months for me... that I absolutely HAD to wear them

im expecting to show VERY early.  With my son I didn't show until 6 months, with the m/c I started showing at 8 weeks!...so this is my third pregnancy i'm probably going to wake up tomorrow with a huge tummy...lol

I could wear all my regular clothes until about 30 weeks.  I don't wear maternity clothes still, I just bought some jeans and shirts in a bigger size.

I started out a pretty small size..but i still needed to wear maternity clothes very early, about months 4 or 5. all the weight went to my belly!

I began wearing maternity clothes at 5 months. I still dont wear maternity pants I just went up 2 sizes in my pants.

lol 8 weeks for me. of course i've got twins but this is my first pregnancy and i just ballooned out fast....i've been in the same size though for the past 11 weeks.

I've been wearing maternity shirts for the past 3 weeks ... so around 5 months.  I mainly wear stretchy yoga pants for work and home (just one size up from my regular size), but I've got the maternity jeans/capris waiting in my closet.  From what I've been told (by EVERY woman who sees me), my belly looks very big for only being 23 weeks... perhaps b/c I'm all belly so far (looks like I swallowed a big basketball).  =)

I started wearing maternity pants around 12 weeks or so, since month 4 I've been in maternity clothes totally.

by beautifullychaotic, May 03, 2008 09:32PM
for my first it was like 6 or 7 months for the second pregnancy  I was 5 weeks. I was miserable!

by martikadragoon, May 03, 2008 10:47PM
I forgot to add.. this is my first pregnancy.
