Maternity wear in the UK

Just wondering where all you pregnant ladies recommend for decent quality and reasonably priced maternity/nursing wear these days? preferably that I can order online

Not at that stage yet, just planning ahead as I got rid of everything from my last pregnancy.

I've got everything from Vinted. JoJo Maman Bebe seem good quality and fit.

Vinted for me too, I've bought absolutely loads on there. I've bought a handful of things at full price from Jojo Maman Bebe and Seraphine but nearly all of my maternity stuff has come from Vinted. If you want new stuff then it's always worth keeping an eye on Seraphine as they do have sales or discount offers quite frequently - at the moment everything full price on their site is 20% off. My baby is due in a month's time so I'm stocking up this week on their post partum leggings and knickers!

Thank you both, that's really helpful! Never used Vinted before so wouldn't have thought of it but there's loads on there.
Got some weddings and things I didn't really want to buy brand new excitement dresses for that I'll probably never wear again so that's perfect

@sel2223 I had never used Vinted before I got pregnant either, now I'm absolutely obsessed with it. 😂

I did struggle with this. Seraphine is beautiful but more if you’ve got a special occasion. I struggled to find things for work. I mostly had maternity leggings and tunics. I did have a decent maternity coat in my first pregnancy (winter baby.)

Maternity leggins: Amazon brand CrzYoga
Shirts: oversized shirts form Zara or H&M
Jeans: I bought jeans form Seraphine but I don't find them particularly great, their sizing is very off too (runs incredibly large). I was size 10 before pregnancy and bought jeans size 8 and they were still a bit large. I tried H&M jeans and they were very decent, true to size and much better fitting.
Dresses: bought regular dresses in 1-2 sizes larger than my usual dresses from H&M, French Connection, AllSaints have excellent oversized dresses. Also bought a nice H&M dress from Vinted.
Blazer: bought an oversized blazer from H&M. Looks great and will defnitely wear after pregnancy.

Basically, most of my clothes are just regular clothes but in larger sizes or oversize fit. I find them better/more fashionable looking that maternity lines (esp when it comes to dresses). I find maternity lines of most brands very dated-looking and something you'd never wear again after.

I definitely recommend Vinted for all those things and most things people wear during pregnancy are in a very good shape.
