weight gain/clothing ?

I gained about 6 pounds in my first trimester. My size 13s no longer fit me but my size 10s stretch and size 13s with a little stretch still do. I'm wondering what's going on here lol? I'm 13 weeks and 2 days but still don't really have my baby bump yet I just look fatter. Is it normal to fit in some jeans but not in others and when will I start getting my bump?

I've been in maternity clothes since 12w.. I gained 7 lbs in my first trimester. My first pregnancy I wasn't in them until 5 months. It's completely different for me this time around.

With my daughter I was in maternity pants by 10 weeks! This time around with a boy I can still fit in my regular pants just can't button them. I didn't get a belly at all until 23 weeks!

Everybody's body is different ya know...like my belly started growing pretty Damn early...I'm 17 weeks 6 days today and I've been wearing those long skirts and tights and yoga pants...just find sumtn more comforting than jeans so you don't have to worry abt what size to wear...

Thanks I don't like the pressure on my belly either. I've been wearing jogging pants at the house and sometimes to Walmart and back...I think I may invest in a pair of maternity jeans soon :)

I was wearing the same sizes and was in jogging pants by 8 weeks. I had only gained 4 pounds.  I just didn't like the pressure on my belly. Now I have 2 pairs of maternity jeans and they have been the best money I have spent to date. I am 15 weeks and 4 days now and I feel much better about myself in my jeans then I did in jogging pants.
