I'd like to get some cool maternity gym and yoga wear but can't find much out there. Any recommendations?

I like the fit mama bottoms. I found the top way too tight (at only 18 weeks!), but the capri and yoga trousers have been fantastic. They are a bit pricey, but I wear them several times a week and am glad to have them.

I'm keen to hear recommendations on this too - I want to get more cycling done, but my normal gear is starting to get a bit tight around the bump (or rolls up/down. I'm a size 14 top, but a size 18 (crazy thighs -_-), so companies that do larger sizes would be appreciated!

I'm a fan of the Mothercare yoga pants, very comfy but prone to developing holes

MetalMidget - not maternity specific but Fat Lass At The Back (yes, the name is a bit tongue-in-cheek) do up to a size 26 in cycling gear, you could just go up a couple of sizes in their shorts?

I never bothered with maternity-specific sports gear - I bought a couple of cheap size 16 tops from Wiggle (was a 10-12 before) and added a bump band with my normal capris and leggings around 20 weeks. I bought a pair of Adidas leggings one size up that sits below my bump a couple of weeks ago (I'm 37 weeks on Sunday) as well.

I also found that my running shorts that sat very low on my hips (Nike Tempo, Adidas M10 etc) worked absolutely fine until I stopped running at 25 weeks without any adjustments.

Fittamamma capris are great - only annoyance is that there's no pocket for a key. The support top is also good but, like a pp said, only fit my bump in early pregnancy.

After that I wore Decathlon Kalenji tops to run in. Their long vests are great, come in some v nice colours - and are also cheap (handy when you keep needing to buy bigger sizes!)
