Maternity clothes - Page 2

[danaalex]

my third pregnancy was the worst. at 6 weeks i was definitely showing, and needed maternity shorts so badly. my 1st and 2nd pregnancies i didn't wear maternity clothes until well into 20+ weeks.

i am hoping this time around for something in the middle. i'm ok if it's not until 20 weeks, but i definitely don't want it to be 6 LOL.

i've been exercising, so i am hoping that will help....

Me too! That was me today. The spring summer stuff just came out at the major local maternity consignment stores, so it's great! The keeners want their mat clothes out of their closets, but there aren't many mamas looking yet for summer stuff. So, there was a good selection.

Hi ladies..... I just hit a goldmine while at the mall, where i usually loathe shopping! The biggest style right now in what i'd call "teeny-bopper" clothes is empire waisted, long blouses that totally work for maternity! I found wonderful fashionable tops at "Charlotte Russe" (i checked it out thanks to a tip from friends)... pretty cheap stuff and it's all actually much more "in" and stylish than my non prego clothes. The only downside to shopping in those kind of stores is that their sizes are TINY and they don't get bigger than a large (which is more like a small in reg. women's) Give it a look!
