Where did you get your maternity clothes. I was between a 16-18 when i got pg. I went maternity shopping today and the shirts didn't seem to fit right. Any suggestions would help

I'm your size!
yeah, there can be issues at times with sizes. I carry my weight in my legs and hips, so I don't have a shirt problem.... it's a pants problem
Motherhood maternity has plus-sized stuff... but it's not as budget friendly as target or H&M. BUT, at our size, it can be hard at times to get H&M stuff to fit correctly....
I recommend you visit target first, and then motherhood.....
in either case, if you like something, and the size isn't in the store, you can order the correct size online.
good luck!

Target has some, but not much. Old Navy is good, JC Penney is good and Lane Bryant Maternity is a last resort. Also, my favorite is the Ann Taylor Loft Maternity section when they have good sales. You can't beat the quality when the prices are discounted!

Re: plus size moms
I wore some regular casual clothes from Lane Bryant. I just bought a bigger size. LB does have maternity but only online. I am about a 14-16 when not pregnant.

Re: plus size moms
I got some stuff from Motherhood Maternity but I got alot of stuff from Lane Bryant, I found it to be cheaper. I was a 16-18 pre-pregnancy.

Re: plus size moms
I wear the Old Navy maternity jeans because I also need them in long length. They are quite comfy and I am sure you will fit into an XL in their sizes

this is me too! My problem is buying pants. I did find some pants in Motherhood that are stretch jeans..about $25....not outrageous but not cheap.
I don't want to buy many jeans since I will be more preggo in the spring and summer months when I won't be wearing jeans.
eta: it also depends on what target you go to. The one by me has such a small maternity section it gets lost.

Re: plus size moms
When I was PG I bought a lot of my stuff from Old Navy, Motherhood, Mimi, and Sears. And Kmart has great stuff for lounging around, etc.
But when I get PG again I will be bigger then last time so I will probably get most of my stuff from onestopplus.com.

JCPenney for Jeans, suits & shirts to go with my suits.
Target for my casual stuff.
