Plus size maternity clothes?

Does anyone have any recommendations for the best place to get plus size maternity clothes from? The shops I usually buy my clothes from (asos, nasty gal, boohoo) only does maternity clothes in standard sizes!

I got my jeans from yours. That's the only thing I bought in maternity. Everything else stretches

I just sized up in standard plus sized. My bump wasn't at all pronounced until very late on in pregnancy so I didn't need the bump type fit that you get I maternity wear.

I think new look go up to size 18 if that’s any good?

I have picked up a couple of things on next clearance page in plus size maternity, I have mainly sized up in new look curve and bought a jacket from Asda which has been a god send and was only £12 x

I got a skirt, jeans and 3 t shirts from Asda and wore them on repeat for the last few months.

I've bought a few tops from ASDA's maternity range.

I also bought a jumper from New Looks curves range in size 18 and a large pink hoodie in a large from their standard range but it's oversize and loads of room.

Thanks to lockdown I've only worn stretchy leggings from prepregnancy and bought a maternity pair from New look incase of swelling after section.

Depends what size you need?

Plus size is a 14+ in some places

Many women just buy 2 sizes up in normal clothes and that works for them.
I can't get away with that in the 3rd trimester as I get huge bumps, I've bought my maternity clothes a size up from my usual to accommodate a bigger bump. Got leggings and tops from new look as I get a discount and they're comfy.
