Blatant attempt to cadge <ahem> borrow some maternity wear

[FrannyandZooey]

Some very kind MNers have given and lent me some maternity bits and bobs, but now the weather has got so hot and I have got so large, I am down to a couple of skirts

does anyone have a summer maternity skirt or two they might consider lending me please? I am pretty large so am guessing a stretchy size 14 might do, but probably larger to be realistic

anything considered but if you don't mind I will say no to stuff I don't like the sound of, to save myself the postage (which I will happily pay of course)

bump

a rather large one

I have a couple of size 16 bits

Somewhere

I'll dig them out and send pics if you like

Oh bugger have just read OP properly

No skirts

but I have a couple of summery tops and lightweight trousers you might get use from

ooh TigerFeet if you can really be bothered to send pics yes pls
I only have a few weeks to go but am so hot and bored of my 2 skirts and I will still need stuff after the baby comes as will be huge and lardy

thank youuuuuu

I'll see what I can find

that's neat

(sorry)

would anyone else like to offer me clothes so I can make crass jokes about their MN name?

How far along are you Franny? You are quite welcome to all my maternity clothes. I have loads, but am due in 2 weeks and really only wearing a few bits and pieces which are comfy now I am a whale. I was going to pack them up tonight and take them to the charity shop but they are very nice really, and I'd be happy to package them up for you. I started as a 14 but have expanded so I would imagine most of my bits would fit. A lot of it has never been worn too, especially the summery stuff

Hi littlelamb, hope you don't mind me asking, but if F & Z doesn't need all your clothes, do you think I could have them please? I'm having real problems trying to find anything at all in Liverpool... of course, if F & Z would like them all that's completely fine too... thank you .

I might have some chocolate brown cords, size 14, from Top Shop if anyone lives where it is a bit cooler.

I would just like one or two summery bits - pref knee length type skirts in non-chintzy type pattern

I only have a few weeks to go so thank you very much indeed for offer but could I just have a couple of bits, and browny have the rest please?

any more before I stop cadging?

Littlelamb, I'd be very grateful of the clothes, it's very kind of you to offer them and thank you F & Z for offering to share too, good luck for the birth and hope the next couple of weeks fly by for you .

bumping for littlelamb .

Franny I'm getting next bin bag tonight apparently, so will root around for you. I'm not huge yet so you can use them until I need them (if there is any of course)

[hopeful]

poor HC just sent me some trousers etc and they just about fitted over one thigh
I am attracting my own asteroids

F & Z, hope this cooler weather is more comfortable for you, I can remember when I was due in August years ago and we had a heatwave, I think I wore the same huge tent-like dress every day because it was so cool... hope you find something comfy to wear soon .

I am that my clothes were too small
soz about that
how are you doing franny?

hey go and look at freecycle too, there is lots of maternity stuff on our local one
(not being mean with loans, i'm err, size 8-10 and haven't found anyone who wants my cast off's stuff yet)

Franny I have a skirt I wore in the late stages of my pg last summer, borrowed itself but the lender doesn't need/want it back atm... it should be a bit above the knee of you... Blue with vaguely swirlyflowery pattern, H&M size M, very generous on me. Wannit?

a bit above the knee on you. ffs.

oh and 2 maternity summer dresses in M (H&M) - the smocking top/thin straps type. these are actually mine
