Who do you think has the best Maternity clothes for the best prices. I'm only 12 weeks and barely showing. However I'm trying to find the best clothing stores that have nice and trendy clothing at great prices.

We have several shops locally that offer consignment clothing that is very gently used. Check your local directories or ask friends or coworkers for input.

Check out Old Navy online for their maternity clothes. I hate Old Navy quality, but their clothes look cute online.

I'm 6 weeks and already up a pant size (bloated hopefully).

That was going to be my suggestion too. Their stuff is adorable, also I suggest talking with a friend who is about your same size that has had a baby, swapping clothing is fun and economical.

I've had three babies and never invested much money in maternity fashions. I'd rather spend it on cute baby clothes.

Old navy has some really pretty and comfortable maternity fashions. The quality isn't the best but you only wear it for a few months so it doesn't matter. Motherhood Maternity also has attractive fashions from casual to dressy for reasonable prices. They also have a wide assortment of maternity underwear and bras and a belly band that you can wear over the waistbands of your pre-pregnancy pants to make them fit a while longer.

I found that when I told people I was pregnant they couldn't wait to pass down their maternity clothes. Some were hidious, but others were really nice. I think I received about three giant bags of clothing the last time I was pregnant.

I also agree with the posters who suggested consignment shops. The clothing tends to be more afordable and you can sell them back as long as you take care of them.

The last time I was pregnant (about 6 yrs ago), JC Penney actually had nice trendy stuff for the summer and the prices were great. Also, some of the yoga pants from Target and Walmart (Danskin brand), are very comfortable, are great for the first few trimesters, and look great.

If this is your first pregnancy and you're expecting to have more, go wild with the trendy for a few items, but realize it may look dated for your next pregnancy.

Ebay is a good source too btw.

My wife did a lot of shopping on Ebay for mixed lots of tops from Micheal Stars and other high name brands. Some of the lots had over 15 tops ranging from Gap Maternity to Micheal Stars, etc. Yes, they are used clothing....but she only wore them for a couple of months, so it would have been stupid to throw money away on new clothes. She looked awesome thanks to eBay and saved hundreds of dollars.

I sold all of my maternity stuff on ebay...which I could kick myself for now because I am prego again... Anyway, I sold all of my jeans, pants, jean skirts, cute tops, dresses etc etc... I would say there was about 18-20 pieces in my lot and it sold for like 140.00... Who ever bought it really made out. Definitly check ebay!
