H&M Maternity Clothing.

Hello loveliesStar
I've been searching high and low for maternity clothes that aren't your standard leggings and t-shirts and have seen some nice bits on H&M.

I just wondered if anyone knows how the sizes work as the trousers/jeggings and also a few of the tops I want come in sizes S-XL and I can't find a maternity size guide anywhere!!
I'm 5'2 and was a size 12-14 pre pregnancy and am generally now a 14-16 at 25 weeks.
At the moment I live in Topshops maternity Joni jeans which I still purchase in a size 12 because they go under the bump but these specific jeggings from h&m have an over the bump part.

So yeah, long post but overall just wanting to know what the sizes S-XL are equivalent to?

Thank you Grin

I think:
XL - 20/22
L - 16-18
M - 12-14
S - 8-10

The trousers in my experience weren't generous if you have put on weight elsewhere. Tops I stuck to my usual size..

I think they come up relatively small compared to other brands. I'd order M and L though to be safe. I'm a 10 and wear S.

I went into a store that had quite a large selection and when trying on I found the S was a bit neat, even though that's what I probably would have worn before (size 10/12 and 5'3). It actually fitted perfectly at 21 weeks but I was worried that at 31/41 weeks it would seem really small so I went M which has given me a bit of room to grow.

With New Look I've found the M stuff to be really roomy and returned a few things for a S instead. I've found their stuff a bit nicer than the H & M stuff although I've bought both. Red Herring at Debenhams is a similar price and is usually pretty nice as well.

I found tops were great but trousers terrible. I'm 5'5, usually size 14 and h&m size 16 jeans were far too long and tight

Jojo maman bebe I found were good for trousers and surprisingly not too expensive

Thank you, I went in today & picked up a M in the jeggings I wanted which will allow me to grow a bit more and purchased L in tops for growth also.

Appreciate your reply :)
