  Welcome to pregnancy bloat. From this point forward everything is normal and may never be the same again.

  I couldn't button my pants the other day so just used the hair tie trick to button them.  That's what I have been doing on my jeans!

  Yeah I avoided my jeans as much as possible in first tri because by lower abdomen always felt so sore. You could try a Bella band, or elastic waist pants for more comfort. I wore dresses and leggings a lot until I got maternity pants around 12 weeks.

  Totally normal even that early. I just literally always left my buttons undone starting around 6 weeks (I used the hair band trick) and then started wearing maternity jeans at 9 weeks and never looked back.

  I think at 5 weeks I used the hair tie trick on all my jeans. I switched over to maternity jeans at 9 weeks.

  Yeah the b band was even hit and miss for me. Sometimes it was great, and other times I hated having even the slightest pressure on my belly cuz it hurt. I did love having it in early third tri though because it fit perfectly and I was able to wear some prepregnancy pants. Now I'm so big I barely fit into anything, maternity or not.

  Yup, beautiful pregnancy bloat. At this point, the baby is still so far under your public bone that it wouldn't be the baby, but the bloat can be nasty.

  Ok, so I'm not crazy? My pants have been feeling tighter and I yelled at myself for gaining so much weight. Now I wish I hadn't donated my pre-weight loss pants. Looks like I'm going shopping...
