pants and tops

at 8 weeks, i didnt think that my pants would be this uncomfortable especially my jeans.. i know it's a bit early to be buying maternity clothes even though i've read that some women start buying as early as their 6th week.. and some as late as their 25th.. i guess there's really no fixed guidelines.. it also depends on how early you show and the kinds of clothes you wear pre-pregnancy.. if you wear loose clothing then you have a bit more room to grow into during the first few months.. if you're like me, whose closet is full of uhmmm.. tight fitting clothes (loose clothings makes me look even smaller =p), you'd probably ask around for advice as to what to do..

a friend of ours suggested trying the bellaband product.. she said she swears by it.. (http://www.ingridandisabel.com/)

a bellaband is a piece of stretchy fabric that you can wear over your unbuttoned pre-pregnancy and postpartum pants.. you can basically use it all throughout your pregnancy and after..

i bought one at Target yesterday but have yet to use it

as for tops, i can probably buy some empire cut regular size clothes or some tunics later on.. but for now, i can still wear some of my sweaters since it's winter.. =D
