What size clothes are you and have you gone up a size or you still the same size?

I am a size 12/14 and still the same though I have started buying size 16 clothes which I can't fit into just yet

waste of money

I'm a *plus size girl* (18-20) so am secretly hoping that Oompa will just take everything she needs from my tummy and I won't actually get any bigger! That the podgy soft belly will just turn into a hard baby bump.

I've had a bit of a look and haven't really come across any nice larger maternity stuff.

I don't have a flat stomach and I tend to wear loose fitting tops so guess I can get away from hidding my stomach for a while.

I'm a 10-12 and haven't really noticed a difference yet, although I do tend to slop around in loose stuff and DH's jumpers at home - I think it's work clothes that are going to give the game away first!

I'm size 12 and i can feel the tightness around my waist so my trousers starting feeling very uncomfortable , i had leftovers on my tommy from my previous pregnancy so i can still wear my loose tunics but some of them are getting closer to my tommy and you can see my sticky bump don't know how long i will keep that way when the people will start to get suspicious

I'm usually a 14 but some 16 tops coz my boobs are 36dds (tut).
So far i'm still in a 14 but struggle to fasten the button as it hurts, I've bought some size 14 maternity combats & jeans & they are just down right huuuuuuuuge. So i guess a 12 in maternity would be better at the mo & the 14s for the end of the preg bar the combats they are more like a large 16 .

With my 1st preg i wore normal clothes right through as i didn't get that big, so i just unbottoned the top button on pants & i bought 1 maternity tshirt for going out in, but everything else still fit .

I was an 8 but trying to get into an 8 dress last night has told me that I'm now otherwise! I reckon I'm now a 12 on bottom.

My top is smaller though - my tummy and waist are wider but I have reallly small shoulders so anything slightly too big looks ridic on me

I'm an 8-10 and at the minute my usual clothes still fit me.

It's really annoying because I daren't buy any clothes cos I don't know how long they will fit me for. The only things I've bought since finding out have been a top which is loose fitting from the chest down (and is elasticated around boobs so will give a bit more there too) and a dress which is for a wedding in July. It's a big 10 and is empire line so hopefully if I have a bump by then it'll still be ok. I know I should have waited a bit longer to get the dress but I hate not knowing what I'm going to wear for such occasions!
