Are my twin maternity clothes going to fit with this pregnancy?

    I'm starting to think my old maternity clothes are not going to fit me this time. Last time I gained at least 80 pounds, if not more. Between 8 - 12 weeks I gained 13 pounds. I'm 12 weeks now and I've gained 4 pounds total. My regular clothes are way too tight in the belly to wear, but my old maternity clothes are huge. Falling off me huge. I don't think I'm going to gain much weight other than in my belly this time - or at least that's what I'm hoping. Last time I gained weight everywhere. Plus my belly probably won't get as big this time, right?

    Did your twin maternity clothes fit you with your next pregnancy or did you have to get new stuff?

    I really would like some new clothes either way. :spiteful:

    I lost weight my entire twin pregnancy (without morning sickness)...so my maternity clothes still fit for the next 2 pregnancies after them. I am sure that the shirts will work, I would probably buy new pants if I were you (your belly will seem TINY this time compared to twins)

    I didn't buy any "special" maternity clothes for the twin pregnancy but I noticed a lot of the clothes I wore with them didn't fit for a long time. That being said I'm 2 weeks from EDD and everything still fits with the exception of a couple shirts I wore in the beginning with the twins are too short now:)

    I vote to just go buy new clothes and use it as an excuse;)

    At the end of my twin pregnancy, I was wearing XXL maternity tee-shirts and bottoms barely fit (they were XL). With my singleton pregnancies, I did wear up to size XL tops and L bottoms, so, yes, I did wear some of my maternity clothes from the twins.

    That's how I was too, I was wearing the biggest size they make.

    I'm going to buy some smaller stuff for now, even if it won't fit me the whole time.

    I've been wearing all of my same maternity clothes (plus some regular clothes) and they seem to fit fine. I only gained 40 lbs with the twins though. I would probably go buy a few new things if I were you.

    Most of my stuff didn't fit. Either the bottoms were too big, or the tops were too small (boobs never did go back to normal after BF!)

    I got some new stuff and my smaller maternity clothes fit longer but I ended up getting almost as big because my little boy was 9lbs 4oz. 22 in!! LOL Huge for my 5'1 frame.

    This has been my case too. Pretty much wearing some of my maternity stuff from the twins, but actually wearing a lot of regular clothes still-- especially skirts. I do though need a few things to get me through the home stretch.
