Knickers in pregnancy - do you buy maternity ones?

[Difficultyear2015]

I'm 14 weeks and still wearing my pre pregnancy knickers under my bump but they are starting to get a bit uncomfortable around my hips and digging in.

Do people generally buy maternity knickers?

Am anyone recommend anything comfortable which won't show many lumps/bumps through dresses?

No, just buy 2 sizes up.

Just cheap big pants, mine are from Asda. They are all black in preparation for the few weeks after birth.

I didn't know Maternity knickers existed. I think I must be lucky that my arse doesn't seem to get bigger in pregnancy- guess it's one positive of still regularly vomiting at 22 weeks.

I wore my normal pants all the way through. Had some massive granny pants for post c section though!

Another one here who has just worn my pre-pregnancy knickers all the way through. I'm currently 36 weeks with an enormous bump (bigger than 90th centile) but I'm all bump and haven't really put on weight elsewhere so my normal knickers still fit under bump fine. Bought some cheap big granny pants for after birth

I wore high waisted sloggis when pregnant (and 1 mo after birth). Felt more supportive and warmer in winter! I am back in normal knickers now tho!

Refused to pay the crazy prices for maternity ones. I'm in primary full knickers. Absolutely huge and ridiculously comfy think I paid £5 per pack (4 pairs in each if I remember right) and well worth it!

I favour the M&S 5 packs of microfibre full briefs (not maternity). They're comfortable and don't give awful vpl.
