Where can I get maternity exercise gear?

Well, I'm finally starting to get into exercise again after a miserable first trimester of nausea, tiredness and more nausea. Can any of you recommend any online shops selling maternity workout gear, ie vests, leggings etc? I've found loads of really good US-based sites, but no decent UK ones.

www.spiritofnature.co.uk

might have some

and Isabella Olivier definitely will (but its pricey).

Crave maternity does leggings (but the polyester kind you might not want to get sweaty in)

GAP stores also now have maternity - but its not available online in the UK you'd have to go shopping.

M&S have got horrid maternity wear, but they have some really comfortable pairs of maternity tracksuit-type pants which I have used and have been very comfortable. (both over and under bump) They are only available at the Marble Arch branch in London (don't know about online). Also very reasonably priced. Maybe a friend could get them for you?

Thanks for the tips.

Poodlepusher - I love the Isabella Oliver stuff, but too pricey to get sweaty in. Crave Maternity leggings look promising (and only £10!)

Coolmama - found these on the M&S website. Are they the ones you've got?

Next do some pretty reasonably priced stuff. Got their maternity yoga pants on & they're really comfy!

Hennes have got some leggings. I inherited my sister's maternity "chave tracksuit" from there too. The material is cheap and nasty but when you're on a budget...

PS - is it only next catalogue that do maternity? I can't find it in any of their branches.

JessJess - some of their stores do maternity. If you do a store search on their website and then click on the 'Services' tab, it'll tell you whether that particular branch does maternity or not.
