Re: Maternity Clothes

To be honest, I have found that most of my maternity clothes are poor in quality. With DS #1, I went out and spent a fortune at Pea in the Pod for professional work clothes. The tops are garbage. They get pilly after only a few washes. The bottoms are a little better. The Motherhood brand fades quickly too.

I have been satisfied for the most part with Gap Maternity and Loft Maternity. Old Navy has been okay too.

The majority of my maternity clothes are either Destination Maternity or Old Navy. I haven't had any quality issues. This is my 2nd pregnancy wearing all the same maternity clothes and not a single piece has gotten worn.

Re: Maternity Clothes

I got a bunch of stuff from Kohl's and Target. I used a 30% off coupon for Kohl's so it was definitely worth it since I didn't want to spend too much on clothing I knew I would get limited use out of. I also got a couple of things from Pea in a Pod and Macy's but I really like my Target stuff the best. I always get compliments on my shirts from there

Maternity Clothes

My maternity clothes are getting beat up looking too and I only bought them this year. They are definitely not made as well.

I got most of my nicer stuff at Destination Maternity or online at Kohls and my casual around the house/quick errand shirts at Old Navy. I had some luck with JC Penney online too, especially for casual dresses.

Honestly with the exception of Destination Maternity I have had much better luck online then at any stores. I find the Old Navy and Kohls maternity sections in the stores very limited and picked over. At multiple locations.

I just ordered some sweaters today online through target, the prices weren't really bad and I have been happy with their clothes. I was trying to hold off but I feel like I have been wearing the same 3-4 sweaters for the past few weeks lol

Re: Maternity Clothes

Most of my stuff is Gap, Old Navy and some "oh baby" purchased at Kohls. I find I like the fit of the Gap/ON shirts/tops better than the Oh Baby. They are more flattering, in my opinion. I find the Oh Baby shirts are a little shorter and tend to ride up on me (but i am 5'9) whereas the Gap/ON tops stay put.

Target! I made sure to buy stuff that I could wear after baby was born too since it's so expensive.

Same (only 1 pregnancy though), but I had to start wearing Maternity clothes at 11 weeks... I can't believe you went all the way to 6 months before needing maternity clothes!
