[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 20 weeks, just told people and they were shocked. I fit into regular pants still. Not my first baby, either. So, I think 16 weeks is early and my colleague is at that point, already wearing maternity pants on her first baby and I secretly chalk it up to her being chubby and lazy. But I am not her midwife, I would never say that to her and no, a medical provider should probably not say that either. But at the end of the day, every woman has a different body and our bodies react differently to pregnancy. [/quote]

That doesn't even quality as a humble brag.  [/quote]

It wasn't meant to be a brag, really. I was being honest. Shrug.

My point is, no matter what anyone (including and especially someone caring for your health/well-being during pregnancy) thinks about your physique/comfortable clothing choice during pregnancy, he/she should butt out and keep lips zipped unless it is relevant to you and/or your baby's health.

And btw, the person I know is in fact kinda chubby, she was before pregnancy and no, she does not work out or follow a sensible diet...I didn't say that I think that of everyone wearing maternity clothes at that point or earlier, but in this case, it applies. Again, my point is that I would not comment on her choice to wear elastic and neither should her mid-wife as long as she is reasonably healthy.[/quote]
