Maternity Clothes

I am so worried. I know that if both of my babies are ok I am going to get HUGE. I get big with one baby and I am only little. Started out this pregnancy weighing 101 pounds. I already gained 6 pounds so I have gained a pound a week. Ahhh. I have no maternity clothes. I went on ebay and did buy one pair on maternity jeans that were cheap....I just know I have so many other things to pay for and get ready for ( we are moving into a house in about a month) that I can't spend a ton of money on maternity clothes...but I also dont want to look frumpy during my pregnancy. Anyone know where I can find them for cheap besides Ebay ( sometimes shipping and handling costs a ton) Thanks
Kelly

have you tried craigs list? you search by your state and city closest to you and you can find some good deals. Then it's local and you won't have to pay shipping. Sometimes you can find stuff for free. My husband and I do a lot of "business" lol on CL and it's a lot easier than ebay.

I bought maternity clothes from Kohls in Dec, right after I found out I was pregnant.  Summer stuff (what I was gonna need) was marked down as low as $2.80- $3.60 a piece!!  Shirts, shorts, capris... I remember getting 4 or 5 items for about $12.00.  So think ahead and shop Clearance rack now. = )

Also, do you have any friends who are pregnant and will deliver before you?  You could hint around about borrowing things.  Most are willing to loan/give things, especially if they don't plan to have another baby.

Consignment. Thrift stores.

Also I bought a TON of tops on Old Navy's website. They usually have awesome clearance prices on their maternity clothes. So keep checking their site periodically until you find things in your price range. I wouldn't buy their jeans, though. I had to pay full price at Motherhood Maternity for a good pair of maternity jeans.

Target is good and fairly cheap. The regular price stuff is normal priced, but they always have a ton of clearance and they have a ton of clearance maternity clothes that are usually really cheap, I mean like a couple of bucks. I've gotten cute shirts for two or three dollars and nice sweaters for about five or six dollars and I've never looked at the pants put I can't imagine they'd be that expensive.

Heyyy :)

Im 15 weeks pregnant and have been in maternity jeans for a few weeks now i seem to be getting bigger by the day. I dont know where you are from but i am from the UK and got some maternity jeans for £25 from dorothy perkins. But if you are from the US topshop have a good range of maternity clothes.

good luck shopping :)

We have a place out here called Once Upon a Child and they also sell maternity clothes of all sizes. You can get shirts and pants for 7 dollars or less. They have some nice deals on maternity clothes and also baby clothes for later on.

When I was pregnant I bought most my clothes off Ebay. I did however find a few at thrift stores around town. I had to look hard though seems maternity clothes don't get donated much.  Craigslist was another place I found some but not that great of deals.

Good Luck
