maternity wear.

Sparklebaby · Jun 5th, 2009, 10:18 AM

where is your fave place to get maternity wear - if u are lucky enough to be buying it now? and what size do they go up to???

Im a big girl (20 - normally) and im starting to find my normal clothes getting restrictive in a big way. even the size 22's I pulled out of a sack are touching skin.

I dont/cant do trousers only skirts or leggins and a denim? skirt. has to be knee length. no shorter.

any tips??

Can you get "Belly Bands" over there? I'm wearing one of my fav skirts today that otherwise would not fit without one.

how do they work??

Oh they are so easy. You just leave your other skirts/pants whatever, unbuttoned and unzipped. These slid over that and keep your pants neatly up on you. (Or skirt.)

Kinda nice also because they add some light support to your belly and back.
