Jeans don’t fit anymore

I am a little. Especially with work wear! I’m a week behind you and just thought my tummy would be flat till around 16 weeks… by the end of the day my tummy is noticeably bigger and clothes are uncomfy. I am surprised at how early it can change!

Although the baby is still really small, your uterus is much bigger. And there’s lots of extra fluid and blood with lots of bloating too.

Oh my I’m only 9 weeks so I think mines bloating but I’m in leggings every day and feeling very uncomfortable in my own skin, my clothes are really tight and I’ve gone up a bra size!?

I went in JoJo Maman a day or two ago because my husband wanted to cheer me up and they were so so lovely they said loads of people move into maternity clothes in their first trimester and their clothes are designed to stretch as you grow so actually fit now - and you wouldn’t know the t shirt or leggings I bought were even maternity

I'm in my maternity jeans already! Granted I had them from my first pregnancy, and I do have to keep pulling them up, but its so comfy not to have anything digging in, especially when sitting down x

I’m 12 weeks on Tuesday and the bloat is crazy!! I am squeezing into jeans but wow also my 2nd and I am hoping It settles soon

Good to know! I'm 9 and half weeks and been visibly bigger around my waist since about week 7? All my jeans and even leggins are tight and uncomfortable, including all thsirts and jumpers as breasts also bigger and sore 😟😟 Didn't help when women I confided in said shockingly "already??"

No it took me a lot of support from my husband to go up to the lady in the shop and I whispered sorry this is really silly as I’m only 9 weeks but my bra wires are cutting into me etc
And she was so so lovely said it’s totally normal and spent ages doing a bra fitting etc
I’m definitely struggling with my self confidence now

Same 🙌🏼 Just not feeling myself. I got married last year so was exercising a lot and was quite toned and under 59kg. Now nothing fits, chubbiness everywhere, double chin and I'm not even at the end of first trim! 😅😟😟 So happy for the baby to be nourished, but not sure why am I so big! (not exercising atm due to extreme fatigue, dizziness, nausea and small bleed in my uterus) Hoping to be back in the saddle within a month 💪🏼

I think we just have to be kind to ourselves it’s hard work this first trimester or at least I’m finding it hard can’t even face a walk most days
Everyone promises energy comes back soon!!

Yes! I’m 11+2 and in the weird in between bit too. First thing in the morning I don’t look pregnant, but by the end of the day the bloat is unreal. Finding most of my normal/high waisted jeans really uncomfortable so got some cheap lower rise boyfriend style jeans from ASOS, which I’ll probably wear with loose tops/shirts for work/this awkward phase when the whole world doesn’t know I’m pregnant! Good solution if you don’t fancy maternity jeans just yet and can’t go everywhere in leggings. I’m hoping they will sit under the bump when it’s a bit bigger too.
