Maternity clothes?

This is my first baby and I just can't imagine my belly getting that big, but I guess there's no avoiding it...
Um only 10 weeks and have not been buying any clothes because I kno where my body is headed.
As far as maternity clothes I just think it ***** to buy clothes to wear for only a few months. How many outfits and how much did you spend on mater ity clothes?

I had my first daughter in February in an ice storm lol and I was flipping hot!! And with my second I was burning hot the whole pregnancy I had her last July but this time im freezing my balls off. Right now I'm wearing sweats and a jacket under my blanket. And it's 80 degrees outside

Bri, you'll be  so hot with hormones you won't even notice the cold, I had to wear spring jackets in the middle of winter because I was spoon incredibly hot that it set off my morning sickness, and that was just in my first trimester so the third should be worse. I am not bothering with maternity wear, I'm just buying 2x to 4x sizes. I did however buy some nursing tops already,  but only because they were unbelievably cute.

I got all dresses, target has cute stuff. Also some shirts to wear with leggings on rainy days. I have some regular clothes that fit, but I put them on and feel horrible. I dont want to be that chick that people look at and say "she knows shes preggo right."

We have a store called once upon a child and its all second hand stuff but that's where I got the majority of my clothes and goodwill. Around 60 for all the stuff I got.

maternity jeans don't fit me right, so no way was I going to spend $50 on each pair lol. Maternity shirts for me were a must because I was all belly. I wear a lot of yoga pants, I buy those for  $6 at Ross's. I also buy maternity shorts and shorts there, it's all pretty cheap if u have a store near you definitely go check it out
