Maternity dungarees

7 replies

I love dungarees and have 2 or 3 pairs that I wear normally. I am concerned maternity dungarees will make me look like a bowling ball with legs. Do they look awful? I’m going to miss my dungarees a lot for the next few months.

A bowling ball with legs 😂 I never thought of it like that before.
Personally I wore them throughout both my pregnancies and found them to be really comfortable. I have a summer baby and a Christmas baby so I wore long and short ones throughout the different seasons (I even got a few compliments on them in the summer months when I was bloody massive 😂) so I’d say go for it.
Enjoy your pregnancy and good luck with everything xx

Thanks milliemoon I usually live in them so I think I might just have to get some. I imagine they’d be so much more comfortable than maternity trousers and jeans.

Does it really matter? At some point you're going to look like a bowling ball with legs (Grinlove it!) or a galleon under sail whatever you wear, so just embrace your beautiful, baby-baking rotundity and go with it.

FWIW maternity dungarees were the most comfortable maternity clothes I had, once I got past the point where I could no longer see or reach my feet. Under-the-bumps just fell down, on-the-bumps chaffed my belly button beyond endurance, and over-the-bumps felt like being wrapped in a sweaty acre of elastic.

I got a lovely pair on eBay for less than £10, light material and really cool oversize fit. I loved them when pregnant

I saw some advertised earlier on facebook - from jojo maman bebe.

Ive ordered this pair off vertbaudet. I hope they’re ok.

I looked on eBay but most of them seem to have loads of bids on.

I had dungarees when i was pregnant and they were the most comfortable maternity wear i owned! They also lasted through 3 pregnancys. I got so many compliments whilst wearing them.
