where can i buy CHEAP plain maternity tshirts?

[mad4mybaby]

I just want bog standard short sleeve tshirts ideally v neck and none of this smock malarky. A top that finishes at my waist band. The only ones i can find are like £20!

I have a load from H&M. Think they were between £5 and £10. I'm 5'10" and 33 weeks pregnant and they cover my bump easily (but are fitted).

Next usually have packs of 3 plain t-shirts

top shop?

I reckon Peacocks www.peacocks.co.uk/Products/Womens_Catalogue/Maternity

and New Look www.newlook.co.uk/women/maternity/maternity_tops/ProductList.aspx

Are the cheapest. Had a quick look and can't see a plain v neck tho - sorry.

Matalan have normal t-shirts but long and cover the bump, im 27 weeks and they're fine - £4 each

also Peacocks

I got 2 lovely one's from New Look for £5 each. Couldn't buy them online only instore. Little bit on the tight side so buy a size larger than your 'pre pregnancy' size.

Mothercare have some white ones but quality is a bit suspect and they're fairly pricey for what you get (£9).

I'm 29 weeks and wearing Primark ordinary lycra stretch shirts in a size or two bigger than usual. They are long enough to cover bump nicely. Because they are stretchy they are not too baggy round the boobs. This all depends if you don't mind showing off your bump. Works well for me, I hate the flappyness of maternity t shirts. May need to get some more Primark T shirts in a bigger size again towards the end of pg, but at £2 each, not a big problem! Loads of colours, and stripes, and v neck or round neck styles. Quality is a bit suspect too, but you'll only need them for a few weeks. Depends on your moral stance on very cheap sweatshop clothing too.

its ridiculous really. a new look that stocks maternity is too far away and have been all over the place online. You wouldnt think it'd be so hard to find something so 'normal'

Dorothy Perkins - £7?

if tried the whole 'buy a size bigger normal clothes' but im quite petite (height and weight) and just looks ridiculous esp as im pg

geordie where are you seeing that?

I'm only 5 foot and size 8 - 10 and I found the stretchy £2 t shirts in primark were fab - I just bought a 12.

I got some good ones in topshop, but that was nearly 2 years ago..

the same with primark, too far away and you cant buy online..

this is from dp website

But they have loads in store - just plain t's

M&S are doing some long Fairtrade T-shirts for a fiver which work well for me as they come down to the top of my bumptrousers.

I got trousers that fit but soon found I needed longer tops to avoid a gap in the middle - luckily local M&S had various longish stretchy tops on sale.

I didn't bother with maternity tops. Just bought from Primark and the like as most have cheap deals on with their plain t-shirts at the moment.

You CAN buy topshop maternity online
look here

yes i know you can buy topshop online, i meant you cant buy primark online

Are you signed up for your local freecycle group? I got a lovely big bag of nearly new (you wouldn't know they weren't new) maternity clothes that way at the weekend. Didn't need to spend a penny or traipse round the shops!

Aye, I got some stuff from Freecycle too.

Pumpkinpatch have a sale on at the moment ... I've found that Topshop non-mat t-shirts fit me okay (29 weeks)

I just brought cheap t shirts from Primark in a much bigger size.
