I have just had healthy 12 wk scan (after several heartbreaking mcs) so am feeling jubilant and v short of clothes to wear (already starting to show). Please give me any positive reviews of your maternity clothes, as I know there's plenty of rubbish out there.

Seraphim tops- buy early and you will get to wear them to death over your pregnancy and beyond. Was really well and go in the dryer too.

H & M jeans- very comfortable.
Jo jo maman- black stretch yoga pants - super comfortable. Black maternity coat which lasted two.pregnancies and when the babies were born could go round a sling in the winter.

I recently bought a simple black pencil skirt from JoJo which is now a staple wardrobe item for work (works well with black tights and brogues). Top tip - buy a size down as it comes up huge!
I really like GAP for basic t-shirts (long and short-sleeved). They are long in length and lightweight; so great to layer in the cooler months and wear on their own during warmer months without getting too hot.
I can also recommend the speedo maternity swimsuit; wore it loads during my first pregnancy and it's still going strong at 20wks with pregnancy number 2.

I also loved dressing my bump after 4 m/c, and definitely showed it off (except at work)
My favourites were dresses - especially the Isabella Oliver and Picchu ones that I got from eBay.
I also had a cheapo skirt from eBay for work, and found that my Baukjen ruched skirt fitted all the way through (other ruched skirts got a bit too short).
I don't wear black, so didn't find anything in the shops at all!
