Anyone else still wearing their normal clothes?


Hi guys,

I'm so pleased I've been able to wear most of my wardrobe still - albiet not done up and pushed down under bump. I was quite reluctant to buy lots of maternity clothes because I didn't like them, too expensive, and I'd only be wearing them for a few months.

I did buy a few bump bands - but not need to wear them, as I bought some t-shirts from primark (for £2 each!) and just bought them a size larger and cos they are new and very lycra-y I can just pull them over my bump and the fabric will stick to bump!

Anyway just wondered if anyone else is still wearing their normal clothes as I get comments all the time saying my maternity clothes are really nice, and I point out they are in fact my normal wardrobe!

I had visions of me wearing a tent in the latter months, so I'm very happy!

well, i can still fit into my socks - thats about it

i went to primark too and bought t-shirts that sounds just like yours and smock tops that were in the sale. Hardly cost me anything. I bought a pair of maternity jeans and a pair of trousers.

i was wearing my normal clothes i would say up until 22 weeks (but not everything).

Happy shopping when the time comes!

Yes - now that I've posted this thread I feel my smugness will be rewarding in the coming weeks by a ballooning bump!

That would be soooo typical!

I'm not fitting into any of my normal trousers, but some of my tops are still ok, have bought a few new ones from places like primark and select because they're so much cheaper and I can't be doing with spending huge amounts on real maternity clothes when I don't really like them and won't get much wear out of them either!
The only real maternity clothes I've got is a couple of pairs of jeans and one pair of black trousers that I needed for work! x

I can't fit into any of my pants except for my pj's and tracksuit pants.
I bought a couple of normal pants to wear now as well.

Tops I'm still in my own. Except now they dont fit over my belly without leaving a gap and in Winter that's not pleasant. So I bought a couple of maternity tops (short sleeved ones) and I wear one of those underneath with the normal top on top.

They're all gone into the box ages ago, now i'm wearing my OH's t-shirts at home and i bought a few new sized clothes. I'm quite happy though that my bras don't fit me which means my boobs are bigger ( haaa ).

I have loads of friends and family and we all pass the Maternity wear round to whoever needs it next... so eveything we wear always looks really familiar

I was in Maternity wear from about 10 weeks... but it's my third baby, and you should more and quicker with each pregnancy
