What are you all wearing all day in bed?

I bought some PJs in a bigger size from Primarni, but they just flap all over the place and fall down.

Is it worth buying proper bump shape ones?
(Do they even make them?)

momentofmadness0 - ooh like the look of those M+P ones, but have you found if they come up big or small? The 8/10 or 12/14 sizing options are a bit tricky for a 10/12...

I'm a 14 and bought a 16/18 because I prefer them a big baggy. The pants were a perfect fit but the top is a bit loose around the boob area.

I was looking for maternity pjs and wanted fleecy one cause its freezing here. But I could not find any really warm ones. Went to prime evil and got some amazing fleecy bottoms (size 18) and long sleeved thermal top (size large) perfect and so warm and cheap! Smile

Thanks, momentofmadness0, I'll definitely size up then as pants that fit are probably more important than the top.

I thought I better share that after looking this thread I bought some JoJo Maman Bebe Fuchsia Check Maternity Pyjama Bottoms and they are AWFUL.

Unfortunately I did a quick try on when I got them and thought they would be ok but then went on to have the worst night sleep ever in them! The material on the trousers is so thick and wide it just feels really uncomfortable and the belly band is massive at the top that they fall down when I walk around but then digs into my bump where is joins the thick material underneath whilst in bed. They come up absolutely massive, I am a size 10-12 and the small absolutely swamp me.

They are £22 and with the top (which is ok) the set cost me £42 NOT CHEAP!!!

Please just be very careful about trying these on before you sleep in them if you do buy them, because I didn't and now I can't send them back and feel like I've wasted a lot of money. (If anyone wants them cheap PM me, only worn once and now washed!)

I did contact JM customer services and they were disgustingly unhelpful and told me to try buying the bigger pair as they might be more comfy. As if I'm going to waste another £22 buying another pair!

I never bothered with maternity pjs TBH though I suppose it depends what you're used to sleeping in. I kept wearing my normal pajama bottoms throughout the pregnancy and the waistband just sat under the bump, while on top I would wear either a T shirt of DH's or a basic mat vest from H&M.

No need to spend ££ IMO. Was a size 10 during pg.
