Congratulations!!
I'd buy as you go/need as well. If you were starting to buy early for money reasons, id put the amount you can afford to spend, on a coles/myer type card, or in a seperate bank account for later on!
The other thing you could consider is buying a few "around the home, to the supermarket" comfy clothes from the op shop.. If you get anything you dont get much wear out of, or anything yo dnt wear at all, its not a big waste..
I would buy a nice outfit or 2 brand new tho, nothing better than new clothes!!
As for how big you'll get, no one really knows until it happens!!
My aunty had 2 boys, (4 & 2) when she fell pregnant with her twins, she did get bigger than her single-baby pregnancies, but she wasnt that much bigger really, it was only in the end she stopped wearing her old maternity clothes.
