Maternity clothes in-store?

Hello, can anyone tell me which high-street stores or supermarkets still have a maternity section in-store?

I might be really unlucky, but the first 3 stores I've tried (Next, Sains and Tesco) only stock their maternity wear online - I'd quite like to try some stuff on rather than ordering and returning multiple sizes, but I can't find any!

Our Asda has a whole aisle of maternity wear. Its quite a big store though. (And the ladies PJ section is larger....)

It really depends on where you are!

The H&M in Oxford street has a lovely maternity wear section

Shelby1981 · 28/02/2022 15:02

Asda should have, or if not, their returns are super easy

@ShirleyPhallus Well, I'm in Devon but I asked at Next and they said it was nationwide, none of their stores have maternity sections any more. I would guess it's the same with a lot of other chains? Happy to be proved wrong though!

@Aroundtheworldin80moves @Shelby1981 Thanks for the Asda recommendation - will give them a try!

My local Next definitely has a maternity section - it’s pretty small but it was there last Sunday!

The John Lewis in Oxford St also had a section (stocking the likes of seraphine and Isabella Oliver) when I was pregnant in 2019 - not sure if it still does and if I ther larger branches might too.

My local new look has maternity in store I don't know if they all do though.

My local H&M has a maternity section

Lauren0902 · 28/02/2022 15:55

The best i found was Tu for Sainsburys

My local Asda has a maternity section. The big Primark near me also has a new maternity section. The smaller one doesn't though so definitely not all stores but worth checking

2 years ago Newlook didn't have one in store but now they do!
Primark now does maternity wear too.

I’ve had this same issue! Apparently the really big sainsburys do stock maternity in store but I’ve not found one yet. Another option is could you click and collect instore from Next (if you like their stuff) and then try it on there and return anything that doesn’t fit.

I really needed maternity jeans and in the end I went to Jojo Maman, it wasn’t a big store but had a great selection and range of sizes of maternity.

Peacocks does in my closest town.
Just get somewhere with free in store collection and returns then you can try it on in comfort at home.

I've just been to my Sainsbury's and they had a whole aisle of maternity so it must be a location thing Shock

mrscotton · 01/03/2022 06:43

I'm in Dorset and only shop locally I found had a small range was Peacocks or H&M.
I got alot of my stuff fron New Look, had to order it online so got a few bits then returned anything i didnt like to store.

surprised12 · 01/03/2022 18:13

I've struggled too so ended up ordering hoards of stuff from asos because their returns are really quick and easy.

Hoping to get a few bits from there!

Sunnytimes21 · 01/03/2022 20:01

@Miller2021 I've tried loads of places in Exeter, Newton Abbot and Torquay, nothing. Only place was Jojo Maman in Gandy St but they only had a small selection of very expensive bits!

minniep · 01/03/2022 20:04

H&M and next both have maternity wear in store. I actually noticed it today as it's always put with the Petite section in Next. Sometimes Primark will have stuff
