Plus Sized Maternity Clothes?

Good Morning Ladies,

  I am looking for advice about plus sized maternity clothing--during my last pregnancy I was able to wear large/XL up until my very last few weeks (I have a giant bum even when skinny, so while my belly was not an issue, I had a hard time finding hips/thighs/bum to fit properly) but this time around, I'm starting a little heavier and am looking for good plus sized wear.  I heard a rumor that JC Penney is discontinuing their line--anyone know of another store that carries good clothing?

Thanks!

Re: Plus Sized Maternity Clothes?

  • I have bought all my stuff from motherhood (bought on clearance never paid full price), e-bay, or a local cosignment store.

  • I would say 80% of mine are from motherhood...20% from JCPenny.  I will say that motherhood seems to run big and JCPenny runs a bit smaller..maybe more true to size.

     

  • Vast majority of mine I got from Ebay (a lot of it is the Duo brand) and go the same route in a heartbeat again.  I went nursing bra shopping at JCP last weekend since I had a 20% off coupon and the largest nursing bras they had were something like a 34 D - not helpful.  Was able to order something online but really only one option.
  • I bought all my 1x bottoms at Motherhood.  I could still fit in XL in tops.

  • Mostly Motherhood, a few at JCPenny...I think Motherhood's quality is pretty good, even though things are a little more expensive.  They often have pretty good sales, though.  Their stuff does run a little big, though.
  • JC penneys has a great selection online.
  • I had lost weight prior to becoming pregnant and up until now, all of those clothes have fit pretty well. I did buy 3 dresses and 2 tops. One dress and the shirts were from Old Navy (there stuff runs big!) and the two other dresses were from Target. I may be investing in a pair of jeans though here in the near future to get me by the next 5 weeks or so. Probably from JcPenny's or Motherhood.

  • Just got back from Kohl's.  I saw some 1 and 2x things there.
  • JCPenney online.  They better not discontinue it...I will be very upset!  Some at Motherhood as well but I found that JCPenney had a better selection of work clothes.
