But I'm tempted!

I'm only 10 weeks, no bump yet of course but I've eaten so many delicious carbs, and I'm looking to wearing lovely comfy maternity jeans again :)

When are you/did you making the switch?

I started wearing maternity clothes about 16 weeks? When my bump wouldn't fit in anything else!x

It about 18 weeks one I couldn't get into my normal jeans any more.

Still getting away with wearing lots of my normal clothes now and am 27 weeks. T sheets, some dresses and leggings all still fine to wear, but I do love my maternity jeans, so comfy!!😃

I used a bump band.

I did the whole hair band in the button hole thing to get another few weeks out of my clothes, but I still was in maternity jeans by 10 weeks.

Around 18 weeks but prior to that I was uncomfortable in my normal clothes for a couple of weeks. When I started wearing maternity trousers it felt like I was going out in pj's! So comfy

My THIGHS got fat Shock with both of my DDs. Arms and thighs. Stomach, face etc pretty small. So yes- in maternity wear or dresses early on!

My two pairs (one over, one under bump) are still too big for me and I am 36 weeks!!!

I hate wearing them - spend the whole time pulling them up. Normal jeans are a no go.

Oooh, I love my topshop joni maternity jeans! I got a pair in black and a pair in blue and have been living in them since about 18 weeks. Elasticated waistbands are the best thing about pregnancy! Not sure I'll give them up afterwards Grin, so I would say if you'll be more comfortable in them at 10weeks then just wear them!

Ooh, glad I'm not alone! I might give it a go soon. Annoyingly, I just got back into my pre-DD jeans!

SpecialStains I know, after DD1 I was really reluctant to swap back to normal jeans, even when I could fit. I never thought I'd love the elasticated waistband so much!

First time round I got to 26w before maternity wear, I'm a chubster.

This time I dug them out at 12w - it's been bliss! Do it.

I still sometimes wear maternity clothes and DS is 2.2. Grin

I suspect when #2 happens it will be from the day I POAS.

Whenever you feel comfy in them, even before bump belly can be sensitive and bloated xx
