12w3d and off to buy pants. I gave everything away so I’m struggling. I feel like a sausage. Makes me feel better knowing lot of women got bigger faster with #3!

Hope for cold weather -- then you can wear a dress with an open blazer and lightweight scarf hanging in the front. This was my best outfit combination for hiding pregnancy.

I'm 11 weeks and if I had them, I'd be wearing them. (Loaned them out - slowly recollecting/replacing)

The day before I got pregnant.


Kidding, of course, but I popped so much sooner with the third kid - way before 12 weeks.

If there’s a baby #4, I assume I’ll be in maternity clothes before the pregnancy test is positive.

Definitely by 10 weeks. But before that (like, immediately) I could only wear leggings and forgiving dresses.

I feel your pain. With #3 you get big fast!

Currently 16 weeks. Haven’t brought myself to bust out the maternity clothes just yet (I’m so sick of them after wearing them for the prior two pregnancies!), but definitely need to soon. Pants starting to get very uncomfortable. I’ve been wearing looser tops since ~10 weeks (mostly because I didn’t want to tell work until the second tri).

Around week 10-11. But I wasn’t really showing until 6 months, I was all round, and looking like I gained weight.

So early. 3 I got big like immediately. Maybe 10 weeks? Maybe earlier. 3 has sucked.

I'm only 7 weeks along and i'm so bloated i'm uncomfortable wearing many of my clothes. I assume it'll be down before going up again, but i'm curious when others started wearing maternity clothes for #3?
