Why don't my favorite jeans fit???

This is a pretty common question that goes thru a pregnant woman's mind somewhere at the end of the first trimester. I have been shocked that it came more quickly then i expected this time, but then again, i am on baby #3. Im at the end of my first trimester, and cant quite fit into my cute "your butt looks good this those" jeans.

In a previous post i strongly recommended getting a Belly band - a maternity stretchy band that allows you to continue wearing your pre-pregger pants, while unbuttoning/unzipping the top. An ingenious invention! If you're like me, you swim in the flexible waste band of your official maternity pants until closer to the 5th month. Belly bands help stretch your wardrobe and allows you to feel cute/and continue the "im not knocked up" masquerade a little longer. ;)

i lovingly refer to this stage as the TREETRUNK phase. You're not officially preggo round and cute yet, but you are starting to lose your waste to your ever expanding uterus and shifting organs. Now is the time to take advantage of places like forever21.com! no, im not kidding, you read that right. Forever21 is one of the best places to find stretchy, comfy empire-waste tops and dresses that can double as early maternity clothing. And the best part - is that its cheap.
