    Re: pregnancy dresses

    Motherhood Maternity is a good store. Their clearance section has good deals. Target and Kohls also have a decent maternity collection, though sometimes on the expensive side.

    I bought a lot of wrap dresses from Kohls. They served me well till the end of my pregnancy and beyond.

    Re: pregnancy dresses

    You can find maternity pants in Motherhood maternity,Destination maternity etc which specializes on them.

    You can go upto 2nd trimester with your normal pants unbuttoned and a bella band worn on the tummy which is soft and strechable and holds the pants.Bella band is available in Target also.

    Tops i didnt find worth buying at maternity store.Normal tops with little loose fitting and different cuts will do.Ex:(empire waist).I didnt mean to buy one size extra.

    Re: pregnancy dresses

    You would be able to find a section for Maternity clothes in famous shops. Usually these are way too higher in price than usual ones.

    Pls dont buy Large to XL sizes it would look too awkward for office.
    In maternity section there would be sizes starting from XS to XL where those would be desinged to fit pregnancy tummy. Try out ans see which fits, make sure its not skin hugging or too tight.

    OTher than skirts you would also get Jeans with a stretchable cloth above the waist (on the tummy) attached to Jeans which holds the jeans properly.

    FOUND some maternity for cheap at GARDEN RIDGE. its a home decor store but u'll find tons of clothes for all age groups.

    The other place is BURLINGTON COAT FACTORY..not as expensive for maternity clothes as in Motherhood and other name brand stores.

    Re: Shopping for maternity dress..

    I too had a hard time shopping for maternity dresses. Here are a few tips in general-

    1) don't do all your maternity shopping together. Your size would change a lot esp the bras etc. So I picked up a few things in the 3-4 month and the rest in the 6th month.

    2) In the maternity sizes buy your regular size- for ex- if you r small then ur maternity dress size would also be small. I ended up buying medium but found them too big and ill fitting.

    3) In US, try stores like old navy- affordable and casual dresses. I picked up tops and skirt.
    - JC penny would has a few good options in the 15-25 price range. I picked up a pair of jeans, cargo pants and tees from there.
    - My fav so far is long tees/ tunics with leggings, really comfortable.

    As I am growing bigger I am also looking for over alls to wear. Does anyone know where to find them?

    You can also go for e.Bay. It is easy to get good stuff in less prices there.
