maternity clothes

Anyone else having a hard time finding maternity clothes that fit right?? I'm really small and my regular clothes don't fit comfortably anyone but all the pants for maternity are huge! Some shirts fit good but I really have to search. Anyone know good websites?

Thanks! Will have to go check on some:) never accesoriesed much lol might have to now since I haven't been able to wear my sky high heels haha. I'm just worried because I'm only 5'4 that a maxi dress would be way too long.

Macy's and jcpennys have a big selection online and if that doesn't work just buy leggings and work out pant most work out pant can pass as casual clothing or dresses

Alexia Im 4'11 as well and I felt their dresses were to long. I feel that anything that passes my knees make me look even shorter. Ann taylor Loft maternity pants fit great.

Emily maybe try a maxi dress! With a blazer? To make it somewhat semi formal for a wedding! I live in maxi dresses simply because it shows ur cute bump (mine is super small so I like to show it if I can Lol) and accessorize the dress with jewlery! Just a suggestion! :) or if you can find a short poffy dress that'd also be so cute here in ca I can't find any dresses so I'm stuck with the ones I already had ;/

It's the worst! I've always been the in between sizes haha. Shopping was a pain for me before and now it's worse. But, the tshirts work well from motherhood. Just leggings and yoga pants and a few shirts lol. It's just a pain trying to look for dresses that'll last and kind of expand as I do.

I have the opposite problem from what seems like the majority of you, I'm a big girl naturally and I've always had a hard time finding clothes that fit right. And now that I'm growing I figured I would have an easier time finding clothes that fit, nope!
Al my local stores maternity sections are still small/medium/large! I even tried walmart and I found a couple nice tops, but nothing for pants. I think I'm gonna live  in skirts for my last trimester, hairy legs be damned lol.

Yoga pants will be your best friend :) lol. Also if it's warm where you live maternity XS shorts usually are not baggy like jeans. As far as dresses, I wear flowy ones that aren't maternity, from Rue 21 and Ross. They fit great and aren't expensive like maternity dresses.

I wear leggings and flowy tops mostly or my leggings and maternity tshirts from motherhood. My only problem is finding something to wear to my friends wedding -.- it'll be late June in Texas and that means 90+ degrees with humidity ha and ill be 31 weeks. Soooo hopefully some cute flowy dresses will be out by then.

Ya that's the problem the pants are so baggy! I don't understand why they don't make an extra extra small of something smaller than 2 or small
