First trimester: what are you all wearing?

[milkmoustache]

I'm 12 weeks and just getting a bulge, but don't want to be 'out' and pregnant as we still have to do the Downs tests. Not big enough for my maternity clothes, but can't fit into any trousers apart from black stretchy gym ones with fold-over top. Any bright ideas? I am particulary in need of tops that are long and drapey and CHEAP (though really don't want to go down the Primark route). I'm a SAHM so I don't need to look smart, but just sick of wearing the same three things day after day...

have you looked at a belly band for trousers? and h&m has some fab tops. also, try ebay, some bargains to be had!

swallow your pride and get thee to Primark / Tesco / George - I lived in Primark linen tunic tops. Get a couple of pairs of trous in the next size up too - you will need them after the birth as you deflate.
