Hi everyone, I’m currently looking for some maternity clothes… but I am finding everything looks so frumpy! Does anyone have any good recommendations on where I can buy some nice pieces from? ☺️

I got all mine from basically Vinted or Shein! X

I got some wide leg maternity jeans from new look and they were the best thing I bought x

I’d love to splurge on some Beyond Nine but I mostly got non maternity stuff and dresses and either sized up or wear trouser under the belly, oversized shirts and blouses. All I did get were some cycling shorts and leggings that are maternity :)

When I was pregnant I mainly bought oversized stuff a size or two bigger
I did really like the stretchy midi dresses with a bra sewn in from primark, I ended up buying them in many colours, These was so versatile as I could layer with jumper when colder or t-shirt when warmer or just wear the dress 😂
I also bought some H&M maternity jeans off vinted which was really nice
I wouldn’t spend too much as most of the time it’s towards the end when you need them and you’ll likely just want to be comfy xx

Vinted and stay true to size unless you’re looking for oversized. I wore a lot of H&M, Gap and ASOS specifically maternity wear then had lots of stretchy fabric leggings that just stretched with me haha x

Maternity clothes are so naff in my opinion! Everything I wore was normal clothes in larger sizes, or wore more low waisted things that sat under the bump, or lots of stretchy dresses and drawstring tie waist trousers!

I mainly got maternity clothes (same size as when I wasn’t pregnant) as I felt they fitted bettered and went in at the curves and like you said don’t look ‘frumpy’ ☺️

I didn't buy any maternity clothes... I am only wearing dresses and skirts, most of them wide and with elastic waist or A shape/ wide . Some of them still fit me and I am wearing them... Sure, my wardrobe is reduced but you can wear only one outfit at the time anyways and I'd say, I have 10 outfits at the moment.
My recommendation to you is, get normal clothes, just size up. You'll never wear maternity clothes again unless you get pregnant again

Loved H&M mama range!
