I only wore maternity clothes with the first. I didn't show start showing until about... 6 months.
The second one I wore no maternity clothes until I was 9 months pregnant, and even then it was only a specific maternity dress. I think I started showing earlier than 6 months but I know my body and so I noticed when things started pushing out. I worked retail so no one really said anything to me until I was 6 months or so because it was obvious by that point that I was pregnant and not just pudgy.
Since I wore almost no maternity clothes this time I just stuck to big tshirts and low waisted junior cut jeans. I worked in a small retail store and was basically allowed to dress however I wanted. So I got lucky there. The first pregnancy I worked in a department store and had to adhere to a particular image, hence why I had to wear maternity clothes that time.
