Don't want to use maternity clothes ..
Hi , I'm 4 months and a week pregnant and my belly has been growing si big now .. I really don't want to use maternity cloths like jeans and the shorts .. Is there any other brand type I could use that's not maternity ?
Mine doesn't have a very big selection, but there is a big one in the next city which is about 8 miles away. And they have a really good maternity section. And it's all really comfy too. The jeans are usually £11 but they're all reduced to £5 atm. It might be worth taking a shopping trip somewhere with a big primark
Personally I think they're a waste of money and they're not that comfortable. I've outgrown my maternity jeans already and I haven't had them long. One pair I only bought about 3 weeks ago for almost £40 from New Look, they're already too tight and the other pair I got about 2 months ago from Next for £35 and they don't go over my bump anymore. I stick to joggy bottoms and leggings when I go out and pj bottoms when I'm in the house.
Sundresses, maxi skirts, maxi dresses, regular skirts... just get them a size or two up... works for me :)
Yeah I have a lot of of Summer dresses and skirts that usually wear but sometimes I get tired of them an just want to wear jeans or shorts ...
I still wear the same clothes some pants don't fit as good so I wear realllllly stretchy tights sweat pants and lots of dresses you can find at Ross really cute clothes for cheap and they don't have to be maternity cloths . i didn't wantt to wear them either I went to buy some but everything was ugly and it was so plain so I stick to Ross they hay cute styles and cheap dresses :)
I wear yoga pants, they also make yoga style capris& shorts for the summer:) or try wearing sundresses really confortable. I just bought some strechy shirts from old navy and the yoga capris and its fine.
I've been wearing leggings to work in my office with long, flowy shirts. I found that maternity leggings from Old Navy are great, and only $8 a pair. I tried to wear regular leggings for a while, but now I'm 22 weeks and they dig into my belly to much. Sundresses are my favorite for the weekends.
Old navy has tons of cute maternity styles and aren't pricey they are the cheapest I've found I'm just glad my work said I can dress casually because I'm a nurse and maternity scrubs are really expensive and not much variety
I'm not sure I guess it all depends on your body you know. Everyone is different like I said I just went up one pants size because my son is low I need space lol
They have bella band, where you put over the pre pregnancy jeans and it sort of holds them in place. That's what I used with ny first pregnancy, this time around I love maternity clothes.
People told me that hollister and the American eagle cloths could work .. Is this true ?
Where are you from? If you're from the US I've seen a lot of ladies talking about good value maternity clothes available from Wal-Mart, Ross and target. If you're from the UK primark do a really good value maternity range. You don't need to spend a lot. I'm 25w and so far have bought 2 pairs of jeans and a pair of trouser for work. I'm trying not to spend too much but I plan on having more children so I will just put my maternity clothes in storage until they are needed again
I dnt wear them either I just wear shorts or comfortable pants. It's summer so I hate feeling trapped in clothes. A nice dress and shorts or skirt is good enough for me!! I've only had to go up one pants size this kid is sitting low lol
Idk I just don't want to wast a lot of money buying maternity cloths if I won't be wearing it no more :/
Why don't you want to use maternity clothes? They're so comfy and you can get some really nice styles :)
