Maternity clothes?

[buddabun]

I need some joggers as my favourite pair are already uncomfortably tight unless i pull them up round my armpits

Kitty thanks for that! I hadn't thought about bras yet as my boobs havent changed at all. I think the evidence is to do with hampering the flow of milk and squashing milk ducts... As well as the fact that they're growing a lot and you don't want to be smooshing them down all the time!

At what stage do you need a maternity bra (oh sexy item that it is )?

Oh god, kittykins, are you serious about the non-underwired? Here comes the sag then... I was an E/F cup to start with, they'll be round my knees by summer if I don't have any wire! You're right about the growing though, i've definitely gone up a cup size already. luckily a while ago I got over-excited by Matalan finally selling bras for us bustier ladies and bought loads that were really a bit big cup-wise due to their dodgy fitting, so now I just fill them properly instead of them sticking out at the front! Hopefully that'll do for a while. But trust me I'm keeping my wire as long as possible!!

I haven't done a lot of research on bras but in mothercare today (yes alright I went ) they had what looked like moulded-cup t shirt bras but with no underwiring. They didn't have anything in my current size but they went up to E for sure. Might be worth looking into. They were pink and looked like a normal bra (almost). I don't like the sports bra style as I have no boobs to begin with and like a bit of padding but these were nice!

Hmmm, that sounds like an improvement on normal flimsy non-wired for sure, I'll have to check em out

might be worth looking into
failing that buy underwired and rip the wire out. i had to for an old bra as i'd tumbledried it too much and the wires were poking out. wasn't too bad actually!

I am short and overweight anyway, but there is a definate bump now! I worry about how big I am going to be lol. I can't wear any my jeans - and I will be [insert swear word here] if I am going to buy jeans any bigger than my original! Bearing in mind I am only 13 weeks (maybe I am carrying twins lol)

But my boobs are the same size - I've not needed to get new bras or anything wahoooooo.

I am just wearing my skirts instead of my trousers now as they are too tight round the waist.
