I'm 22 weeks and dont really have much of a bump to speak of. Anyone else not really fitting into normal clothes but maternity clothes just far too big????

Me too! Im 17 weeks and just feel fat!! Some of my clothes still fit ok but there are some I just cant fit in anymore but like you say, maternity clothes are huge!!
Im not obviously pregnant to those who dont know so I think I just look (and feel) like a right heffer and nothing looks flattering anymore!!

Thank god I'm not the only one, thats exactly how I feel! I hate it!!!! Especially now the weather has been nice, I cant find anything to wear. I also dont want to go out and spend loads of money on stuff that will only last a few months.....So annoying!!!!!!!!!!

I'm only 15 weeks and have had numerous comments over the past few days about my 'bump'. One wknd I fit into my 10's, next wknd I couldn't button them! I gave up this wknd and bought some maternity jeans. They're the ones that still button but fit under the bump and have a big elasticated band. They feel a bit weird coz they're so low but the are comfortable.

This is my first too and everyone told me I wouldn't show till 6/7 months. Bo**ocks! If you didn't know I was pregnant you would think I'd eaten too many muffins!

I'd like to be able to tell you that it gets better but I'm 29 weeks and still just looking fatter rather than pregnant! I'm still wearing some of my pre pregnancy clothes but had to buy some trousers a size bigger as maternity trousers are just totally the wrong shape for me.
