Mamas and Papas Maternitywear - any good?

Load a load of maternity clothes last time but that friend has now moved away. Ive got a couple of bits from ebay and H&M but will need more. M&P have a big sale on with a few nice dresses and tops but wondered if there was a reason they are now so cheap.

Anyone got any comments before I order?

Through the grapevine only, I have heard the sizes come up big. Just to bear in mind when ordering online!

I bought loads in their January sale and its all been fab. some real bargains too.
Sizing was fine for me, only problem was with jeans/trousers but I have that with normal jeans anyway so wasn't surprised. I went into store to try on...really nice changing rooms tooSmile

Oh thats good Patch.

Mmy two local branches have taken all their maternity stuff out so only online for me, but I suppose I could drop it back to them if no good.

I got a few things from there last time and found the sizing generous, especially on dresses but absolutely brilliant quality. Will be getting a few bits from there myself.

Have been quite disappointed to find they don't seem to go up to anything bigger than a size 16 - guess plus size people don't get pregnant!

I got a fantastic dress for £20 in the sale that I wore for the first time today and felt nicer than I used to before I was pregnant! It's a black fully lined tea dress and really lovely. Should have been £40. Will be checking their sales more often now!

Oh and the other thing I'd say is that the quality is way nicer than the h&m stuff that I have.
The sizing did seem big to start with but as I'm a bravissimo girl it really helped when my oversized chest got even bigger post 20 wks Grin
