Just that really - can anyone tell me whether they come up big or small? I hate ordering online without trying Smile

I was pre-pg 10/12 and have a pair of size 10 under-bump mat jeans from Asos that still fit me at 39 wks, whereas in other brands (eg Gap) I've gone up from a 10 to a 12. However I hardly wear the Asos jeans as they're so fecking annoying - they've never stayed up...

I've only bought a tankini from there and found it on the generous side

I was an 8/10 pre-pg and just ordered a size 8 dress. Am only 23 weeks, but it's a bit on the large side, and not just in bump growth potential terms - it's sort of big on top too.

So I'd agree to them being generous. Which, I have to say, feels rather nice on the ego, but it's a bit annoying if even the smallest sizes are too big!

Happy shopping Grin

I'm a 12 on top and 14 on bottom and bought a size 12 dress from ASOS. At 29 weeks it still fits me well so I'd say they do size pretty big.

I was a 16 in Asos before pregnancy and have got some of their under bump jeans in a 16, they are a brilliant fit on the legs and bum but keep falling down on the waist. Maybe they'll fit when I get a bigger bump. But I'd say they are true to your pre-pregnancy size.

Interesting people say they're generous, I thought they would be small for some reason. I was going to order some boyfriend t shirts in a couple of sizes bigger as I like them bigger. I bought a New Look top one size up and a t shirt two sizes up to get the fit I wanted.

I hate ordering online too OP, may hedge my bets and order different sizes.
