Last time I bought some around 12weeks and started wearing them around 16 weeks.

Really early, like 9 weeks? I was just so bloated and already uncomfortable...

15 weeks

I went to Old navy yesterday because I had a coupon, but I didn't buy any clothes for myself. Figured I would wait. DH got some t-shirts out of it.

My sister offered to send me some of her clothes since she's due at the end of this month.

I bought them at about 8-9w. I had already heard the heartbeat and felt more confident, plus they were on sale. I was going to need to buy them eventually anyway

I was too superstitious to buy until around the end of the first tri. I ended up getting larger regular pants (due do an Amazon mistake) not long after I found out.

I did right away when I found good deals at Gap. I was superstitious and did not wash anything except jeans and leggings till about 18 weeks. I think it's fine, just leave tags on till you need them. That said I did overbuy a touch and have a few items I have not worn yet with a month to go.

Like 5 weeks the first time? But I like to look for them at goodwill, since they're so cheap. If you find something there, you buy it. I also started stocking up on slightly bigger or stretchier non-maternity tops that would work before I was big enough for real ones. I wear fitted clothes and didn't want to stretch out everything.

With my first, I didn't buy my first maternity clothes until 27 weeks! I just wore my jeans with a bella band and already had a lot of flowy and loose-fitting tops.

With my second, I started buying them right away! Maternity clothes are so much more flattering on your bump than non-maternity clothes!

I was in full time maternity clothes by 12 weeks. This time I am about to be 13 weeks and am going this weekend to stock up on more mat clothes. With my nausea I cannot have anything remotely tight on my stomach. Yesterday I was wearing regular black tights and by noon I had to cut the waistband because I was literally getting a stomach ache from them, haha. Guess I need maternity tights too and last time I never bought any at all!

I bought some a few weeks ago (I'm 13 weeks now), because my work scheduled fluctuates a lot and I had spare time to shop then and might not have the time when I need them. I'm still completely comfortable in my regular clothes though, so I haven't worn them yet.

Around 12 weeks. I didn't need anything before that, honestly and I was too superstitious to buy or wear anything maternity before that.

I needed work pants at 8 weeks. I hated the belly band. They were 100% more comfy.

I have a very short torso, so I popped early and by 8 weeks my pants were not fitting. I didn't buy a ton in the first trimester, but some basics. I bought the bulk around 16 weeks, when my MIL took me shopping.

I think around 12 weeks. But I probably didn't actually need to start wearing them till 16 weeks or so.
I'm just a shopping addict though, it was impossible for me to not buy clothes and I couldn't buy regular ones

8 weeks? I had to buy work pants early. I didn't buy much the first time around. Got by with with wearing nonmaternity in larger sizes.

This time, I bought some from HB classifieds and Gap. I think I'm mostly done until spring/summertime when I'll probably pick up a few more dresses.

Around 20 weeks for LO 1. I wore a lot of dresses before that.

With my first pregnancy, I put it off as long as possible. I think I was around 16 weeks?

This time, I started wearing my old maternity clothes around 9-10 weeks (the bloat, my goodness!) and have been buying more slowly since (preg in a different season)
