this is my 3rd and i struggled to do my jeans up at about 7 weeks and slowly it's getting harder to hide although unless you knew I was pg you would just think I was chubby lol I think part of it is bloating for me too but there's a deffinate belly there now at 11 weeks. I bought some maternity jeans a few weeks ago but so far I've been able to get by with just undoing my buttons on my regular jeans and covering with a long stretchy top.
