Maternity Clothes
So my tummy has grown big enough that my pants don't fit anymore. I'm 13 weeks ;). Where do you find affordable maternity clothes?!!
2nd hand stores or look online. I have really nice maternity clothes that people wouldn't guess they were (if I didn't have a belly) I have dress clothes, jeans, capris, shorts. I do not like to look frumpy especially at work. And I feel comfortable and well dressed in my clothes. I find 2nd hand stores and get them cheap ($3-$8 for pants!) Check online like eBay, Craig's list, etc. Or the for sale groups on Facebook. I have found my clothes cheaper than buying clothes the next size up (plus they are comfy and work for the whole pregnancy!)
With my first I could fit into my size 3 jeans until birth. Shortly after she turned 3 months old I found out I was pregnant and jumped to a size 5 and even grew out of those. I went to savers and bought myself a whole wardrobe of dresses lol it's spring time so I like the way my big belly looks in the dresses I got.
Well I've done a few things already mentioned above. I'm 19wks+1d but I've started showing since 14 wks, and I tend to get wider with my hips so I have the issue of maybe not such a big belly but my pants stretch a little more on the sides so if I zip them their uncomfortable. Anyways Burlington, Sears, Ross, and TJ Maxx have cute things- however because pregnancy doesn't last too long so I don't over by maybe just essentials. I also bought the belly button bands, for me it was $22 total. The two free and you pay about $14 shipping but they had a special where you buy 2 the third is $7. I just got them this week and I love them. :D
If you go to
bellybuttonband.com/cart
and use promo code:
Belly14
you can either get 2 free belly bands OR 1 free belly body band if you just pay shipping (which I think is $14). If you don't know what these are, they are bands that go around your waist and grow with you through your pregnancy. They attach to your jeans so that you don't have to zip and button them which keeps you from having to spend money on those pesky maternity pants. ;)

I got my maternity skinny jeans at Ross from 8-15$ and tops are cute and cheap there too
I know i agree with kparadis lol im 20 weeks and just barely now growing out of clothes lol yoga pants are best walmart $12
Maybe your having twins.. I can't believe your already out grown your clothes I've never known that to happen to someone soo soon.. Haha but congrats on your baby I shopped thyme maternity some second hands stores and one other I can't think of..
I saw online yesterday that Forever21 has or is coming out with a maternity clothes line.
I got some at affordable prices at ross and on ebay. They are cute. :) u can find new stuff on ebay.
I do the same as ravenamaru. I hate maternity clothes. They all look so frumpy and the really cute ones are crazy expensive! I'm 20 weeks and I've been wearing my regular jeans with a belly band that goes over the top and holds them up without having to button them. Other than that i wear yoga pants and cute sweats. And when it gets warmer I'm going to wear maxi dresses and baby doll dresses. I did buy one pair of cargo shorts from H&M that I haven't worn yet. The belly band thingy is a definite lifesaver tho!
I Don't/Didn't. With My First I Was A Freak If Nature And Fit In All Of My Clothes. This Time Around I Just Wear Leggings, Yoga Pants, Stretchy Pants, Skirts And Dresses. I Wear A High Waisted Knee Length Pencil Skirt With AnY Top. I'm Not Showing Yet But I Have A Gut.
i go to Burlington . They Dont have a big selection but it will work good enough as i see it lol
