Maternity Clothes

[MadamePresident]

I can't wait any longer. I need something to wear. Any recommendations for good places to go find maternity clothes? I like to try things on before I buy, so I don't really want to order stuff online.

Kohl's, Target, Old Navy, JCPenney, Motherhood

I found a bunch of stuff at Motherhood Maternity. Not too expensive. I also ordered maternity jeans and some gaucho pants from Old Navy, online. I'm not usually a fan of online ordering, but it worked.

I also bought several t-shirts at Wal-Mart that were a size larger than I normally get, to wear around the house. Those were great, and cheap!

I love old navy tanks. Their regular ones non maternity were perfect for the first two trimesters because they are so long and now perfect again post partum. I did need the maternity tanks for third tri.

Gap pants were my favorite for work (still wearing them actually and I have a 3.5 month old!)

Old navy and target for tops.

I have done mostly Old Navy and Shade Clothings maternity line....with a little Liz Lange for Target mixed in.

The sale rack at Gap.

I actually like the pants/shorts/capris from Motherhood and tops from Penney's

So Motherhood, is also in department stores? My MIL is taking me shopping tomorrow and I'm trying to figure out where to go.

Some carry Motherhood like Kohls, Sears, etc., but they all have a much smaller selection.

Gap was my favorite. Also Target and Old Navy.

I agree with most of the stores already mentioned and would also suggest checking if there is a motherhood outlet near you. I was able to get some really great deal there, like tops and sweaters for $9.99 and jeans and dresses for $15-20 on clearance.

I got most of mine from the Gap and Target.

I didn't like the quality of most things at Motherhood Maternity.

I also got some cute, inexpensive stuff at Burlington Coat Factory.

This is what I was coming on here to say. I didn't pay more than $15 each for maternity jeans, shirts, and dresses.

I liked Gap and Ann Taylor Loft (online). Pea in the Pod has great work pants that don't need dry cleaned. I bought some casual summer stuff from motherhood maternity - it was fine for the short time that I wore it, but the quality was pretty low.

There were good answers here. I got my best stuff from Gap clearance rack. I would invest in a couple pairs of good-quality work pants and jeans, because they are what you'll wear the most. You can mix and match less expensive tops and supplement with non-maternity stuff (normal cardi over maternity tee, etc)

I liked some of the Motherhood tops. They were pretty flattering on me. The secret panel jeans were nice for when I first started showing and the last couple of weeks. They are pretty beaten up for as short of a time that I wore them. I wouldn't be able to get a second pregnancy out of them. Old Navy jeans were pretty stiff, but I loved their cords. They also have some with an adjustable waist that look like regular jeans which were great for the beginning and postpartum. I liked Duo maternity shirts at JCP and Liz Lange at Target maternity yoga pants. I bought my jeans at Mimi maternity. They were higher than I would like to pay, but I definitely got my use out of them. They held up very well. I wouldn't buy too much until you figure out what kind of pants you like. I found the full panel the most comfortable, but I know a lot of other people couldn't stand having anything over their belly. I hated the under belly ones.
