Maternity clothes you can buy in store

I've just got 20 weeks and when I'm starting to actually need a few bits and pieces of maternity clothes. (Mostly for office site visits and events, when working from home I live in leggings and a smart jumper).

I've been looking in shops and haven't been able to find any but there are loads online. Are there any shops which still sell maternity clothes in store so I can actually judge sizes rather than guess?

Only shops I’ve found anything in is H&M, not even all the stores or Jojo maman bebe . Otherwise it’s online only

My local Asda has a small maternity section.

If you are in London, check out Seraphine branches.

I struggled to find anything apart from saisnburys bur even then haven't seen any recently

Twokidsanddone · 07/08/2023 21:15

Sainsburys and h&m were rhe only places I could find anything in store. But I really do rate sainsbirys stuff

I sympathise, but can offer no help 🙈 apart from the H&M in Leeds doesnt have anything, I've not found a city centre store here that does! X

My local peacocks has a small selection.

Hardly anywhere does. You could try Vinted for second hand bargains

Unexpectedlysinglemum · 07/08/2023 21:45

Only seraphine in London - it's nice but so expensive and lots of hardly worn stuff on Vinted

It's so strange that no one stocks it in store. My Best Buy's were h &m I would do a big haul from there online and return what you don't want to a store, or order it to a store, try it on there and immediately return what you don't want.

Definitely get proper maternity big pants and leggings

Congratulations on your pregnancy 😃

H&M...... including abroad... you know... in case you go on holiday when you're 23 weeks pregnant to Berlin and your husband forgets your suitcase and leaves all your clothes at home.

Thanks everyone. At least everyone has struggled to find in store and I'm not just missing something.
I've ordered a few bits from New Look and H&M but want to look at some stuff. I've not see. Any in Sainsbury's but generally walk past the clothes.

My town has Primark and H&M only, from what I can tell.

I've had some proper bargains in Primark- vests marked as 12 dollars or euros, can't remember which? But rang up on the till as £1! I went back and bought 2 more.

I looked into this extensively and there's basically nowhere. I got a few bits from Jojo Maman Bebe, but the in store selection is very small compared to their online range.

Best bet is to order loads online with a credit card and return anything you don't want. It's a huge pain in the ass.
