Need clothes!! What are you wearing and where are you buying?

I am in desperate need of some new things...I am finding it very difficult to know what to buy because as you all know...I'm growing everyday. How do you know what to buy? I'm feeling overwhelmed at this process of buying clothes!

For example If I buy lowrise jeans with a lowrise waistband (maternity) how long will those last? 3 weeks? the whole rest of the PG?

Re: Need clothes!! What are you wearing and where are you buying?

The saleswoman @ Motherhood told me that maternity pants last start to finish. I bought a pair of jeans @ 10 weeks and the low rise wasitband sat above my belly button. As I'm getting a little bigger, it's starting to sit at my belly button and when I'm huge ( ) it'll be low rise. You should be able to wear them the rest of your pregnancy!

PS - where's the belly pics???

It should last the rest of the pregnancy, so 'they' say. I like the low rise - I hate having my belly covered.

I bought a LOT of stuff on ebay. There are a few sellers that sell brand new maternity clothes from gap and old navy... also just stopped by a Gap Outlet yesterday and they had a maternity section. The clothes fit sooooooooooooooooo comfortably!

Re: Need clothes!! What are you wearing and where are you buying?

Everyone grows so differently and it is so hard to predict...so my thing waas I never bought too much. For me some low rise pants worked but most didn't. I found the panels worked better as my belly grew. The good ones I foudn did fit me thoughtout the entire pregnancy. As for shirts, I wore size small up until the last month or two. And then needed some bigger unless they were smalls that were cut big. I bought a few pairs of basic color pants (a few black, one tan, one gray and one navy, one jeans, and a fw low rise non maternity sweats) and a few tops and mixed and matched. I never bought a lot because things didn't ever fit me well. Actually as for bottoms a lot of clothes a size or two bigger fit me better to about the 6th month or so.

Re: Need clothes!! What are you wearing and where are you buying?

I have them too!! I bought them in the very beginning and they still fit me!!! I always wear things below the belly, it's more comfortable.

Oh, I also got all my clothes from Old Navy and Motherhood Maternity. Motherhood had a basic pair of black and charcoal gray cotton knit pants that go great with any shirt...I practically wear them everyday!!
