Maternity clothes, when did you start wearing them ?

Hi ladies sorry to thread jump but just wondered when you guys started wearing maternity clothes? X

Erm depends my dresses about 14-16 weeks as I'd usually wear 50s style ones to work, the small waists don't agree with bumps lol but trousers and skirts about 18-20

I started about 14 weeks, purely for comfort but I need them now lol got a huge belly coming on x x x

I started wearing tops at about 12 weeks, my belly is getting really big now so I bought some more today looks cute!

I'm still extending my waistlines with hair bands, and just bought a lot of loose longish tops in my usual size. I did buy maternity jeans, leggings, even a coat, but they're huge, not quite wearable yet.

I am 20 weeks and only just started wearing maternity clothes a week ago but man do I need them now! I used hairbands to just loosen my waistband off in the afternoons - my friend gave me a few 'belly belts' (think you can get them from Amazon) which are even better than elastic bands, but you do need longish tops with them as your trousers are undone! I am away with work in south of France at the mo and went to put my board shorts on for the first time this morning - they don't even nearly do up - it's so depressing!!!
