I've just totted up what I have spent. I found out I was PG in Feb and could no longer do up my jeans. I am shocked to discover that it's £400! . And here's me thinking I was doing well by getting some bits and bobs from ebay. What I have bought is:
3 jeans (1 blue, 1 black and 1 3/4 pair)
2 work trousers
2 dresses
1 shorts
1 leggings
bump bands, bras and larger underwear.
various tops and t-shirts
In my defence, it's first baby and I haven't been given or loaned anything. Quite a lot of it is normal wear and just either smock style or forgiving around the midriff, so I will be able to wear when deflating after the birth and when not PG (if I can stand the sight of them by then).
Still, that's a bloody fortune. Thankfully we're being given nearly all of our actual baby equipment, which is a godsend as I clearly won't have any money left!
