Best Place for Reasonably Priced Maternity Wear?

[fatandiknowit]

Although I am not at the buying stage yet, i am at the speculating stage!

I'm a 5'5 size 14/16 and I just wondered if anyone can recommend some nice reasonably priced shops for maternity wear - I've been a bit scared by some of the prices of online retailers! £65 for a pair of jeans!!!

I usually shop in New Look, Dorothy Perkins - so that's the kind of price range I am looking at

I'm quite enjoying the speculating and browsing stage so any recommendation will be enjoyed

I got most of mine from Next because you can sit on your arse with a cup of tea whilst shopping (online), get it delivered the next day and not really pay for it. (Opened a Next account so I didn't have to pay all in one go.) But yes, loved H&M, especially their breastfeeding tops. And Ebay.

There are a few bargains left on the blooming marvellous site (plus buy one get one free until Sunday on sale items) also some sale stock left on the mamas & papas site. The discount code MNET gets you 10% off b marvellous, but I haven't found a code for Ms & Ps.

Why not try www.more4mums.co.uk or www.affordablematernity.co.uk both offer ex-stores and designer at cheap prices.

Hi, there is a very good website I got trousers for work from (they were brand new mothercare trousers for £35 but I got it for £12.50!!)- www.affordablematernity.co.uk

La Redoute usually have a lovely chic range.

I managed to get some bits in the Next sale, am 25 wks now. Not keen on the under bump jeans, they are comfy but still need to wear a belt to stop them falling down but this is uncomfortable when i sit down or drive. Bought some jersey type trousers with the roll down waist which are so comfy, as I pull up the waist to cover the bump when it gets a bit chilly (mothercare did these). Waiting for a Bump Hugger (amazon) which allows you to wear you're pre-pregnancy trousers undone and looks like a two-tier t-shirt under normal t-shirt. Not spending anymore on maternity wear

ebay!

I've just tried out the affordablematernity.co.uk website their prices are great and their delivery was super speedy! I would recomend you try them out.

Peacocks, Dorothy perkins, Asda, Tesco and topshop

I went through my pregnancy without buying any maternity clothes, just larger sizes from cheaper shops like Primark and New Look. I used boob tubes to go round my bump! No need to pay the stupid prices for something you only wear for a few months, it's such a rip off!
