I'm pretty set in what I have already but figured we could all share items/stores we have loved and hated.

I recently got Old Navy side panel jeans, which I loved in my first pregnancy, but the elastic already seems to be wearing out which doesn't bode well for the next 6 months. Any other brand suggestions? I'm usually a 16/18 so the brand must be plus size friendly.

Gap pure body Ts are ahhmazing.
I just went through my stuff yesterday and I was unimpressed. Waiting for a good Gap sale to get some staples.

I got a couple Isabel Maternity t shirts at Target and I really like them. Also I hit up a sale at Motherhood and really like their long sleeve maternity tees. And their Secret Fit Belly Skinny pants, they are really comfy.

My favorite pants are ponte maternity pants from Target. I still have yet to find jeans I really like.
I mostly do solid maternity tees or tanks and cardigans for tops.

I am really loving the long sleeve tees from Target's new A New Day line. They're long and stretchy & so comfy. Perfect for layering with an open faced cardigan.

I liked ASOS maternity last time, especially for jeans/pants because they were a lot cheaper than other places but I looked the other day and it seems they have less stock these days. Also like Nordstrom maternity for cute tops and dresses, they even have some affordable jeans on there. THIS Ingrid and Isabel dress is apparently really popular (also comes in sleeveless).

I’m all about that full panel life and of all the brands of jeans I had last time around, really the only ones I liked were my Motherhood Maternity one’s. They stayed up and kept their shape but were super comfy.

charliefox I also got heaps of my stuff first time from ASOS but their selection recently is a bit meh. I’ll keep checking though cause they often get new stuff. I ordered some work dresses on Boohoo yesterday. Super sale so even if they’re a bit average quality it’ll give me some things to wear until I need my ‘big’ belly dresses. At the moment I’m too big for normal clothes but not big enough for dresses with a whole extra belly on the front. ETA pic of my order.

I love H&M for jeans and tights. 2nd gap pure body- their sweatpants are so comfortable.
Most of my maternity wardrobe comes from Isabella Oliver, Although I found some great pieces from Hatch NYC, topshop and à French brand called 1 et 1 font 3.

Love the target shirts, and got some tees from Kohl’s. Also got some jeans from motherhood maternity. Most of my maternity stuff is too big and stretched out from 2 other pregnancies.

I bought maternity jeans from Old Navy and I love them. That's where I buy jeans from typically, so the fit is similar for me.
Otherwise, I have pants from Motherhood maternity from last time that my mom bought for me, and then some that I bought this time around from a consignment shop. They hold up well and look professional for work. I always buy the full panel so that I can wear them all the way through. I always feel like my pants are falling down with side/low panel.

I mostly do solid maternity tees or tanks and cardigans for tops. This is what I do everyday for work: mix and match pants, tshirt/tank and cardigan. I have a better capsule wardrobe for pregnancy than I do otherwise.

I still have a lot from my first two pregnancies and in between since I knew we wanted 4 so I would just buy when I saw something cute. Target regularly has good shirts rotated in, but I'm not loving the selection right now. Motherhood maternity is too $$$ for me. And I don't need fanceh stuff. I pretty much always wear jeans + fitted shirt plus running shoes.

My target maternity section was a complete bust when I looked this week. It was so bad I was wondering if they were no longer going to carry it anymore. Strange.

If anyone gets any good ON codes please share. I want this dress for my brother's wedding next month and now that it's back in stock in my size it's not on sale.

Anyone have good suggestions on maternity scrubs? I was wondering the same thing. I have some of my larger scrub tops from before I lost weight but that will only get me so far. I'm especially concerned about pants since I just started a new job where I actually have to wear a full scrub set and can't wear jeans anymore lol

Anyone have good suggestions on maternity scrubs? I'm not a big fan of Cherokee scrubs, but I've had coworkers recommend the maternity bottoms and been given a couple of pairs.

Last time around I was able to find some good deals on ThredUp. They have a whole maternity section. I hate to spend too much $$ on stuff I won't wear that much. I have to get out my clothes and see how much of it I can use because last time I was biggest right in the middle of winter.
