Pregnant after IF

Old Navy questions

Last post tonight, I swear.  I don't normally shop at Old Navy but I was just looking at some of their maternity stuff online and think I might want to buy some.  How do the sizes in their maternity clothes run?  Should I get the same size in maternity as I do in regular clothes?  What about returns - can online purchases be returned at the store?  Thanks!

Re: Old Navy questions

  • I bought a few things and found they ran true to size. If you don't normally buy from Old Navy, I would say they do run a little bigger than normal rather than smaller. I could not return any of my stuff to the store but returning thru the mail was pretty easy.

  • The first time I ordered I could take it back to the store. Then, a month ago, I noticed that the returns said they can't be taken to the store.

    I've really been hit or miss with ON. The pants were def too big when I ordered my prepreg size. The shirts were all big too, and I'm still not wearing them. Their are more for when you are really pregnant.

    I had great luck with the maternity cable knit sweater. I ordered my regular medium size and I've been wearing it since 12 weeks.

  • Thanks ladies!  The few things I've found so far can definitely work into Feb/March and later so hopefully they won't be too big.  I guess I'd rather their stuff run bigger than smaller.  At least I can hope to grow into it!

  • I believe that their online stuff can be returned to the store, but I would go to the store, it's much cheaper with shipping and sale/clearance racks, but that's just me.  Also, I found that they ran pretty big.

  • i purchased a pair of skinny jeans that I love from ON; they run true to size.  also purchased a winter coat (the black puffy coat) which fits pretty well, but I think it's a bit snug and won't be zippering in the next few weeks.  i'm heading towards the end of my pregnancy so i refuse to buy a new one, but i have loved it so far!

  • I always read the reviews b/c some things run big, others run true to size.  Some of my things have shrunk too (sweatpants and long sleeved tee). 

    I've had some good luck though (I have the skinny jeans, puffy coat, some sweaters). 

     

  • They run HUGE in my experience.  I ordered a ton of stuff and never wore it because it was all so, so big (and I never got around to sending it back).

    The ON by me doesn't seem to have a maternity section :(  They had a few items in the clearance section but not more than a rack total.  Made me wonder if maybe they were online purchases returned to the store.  Shipping for over $50 is free right now so that won't be an issue - only if I would have to return it.

    Ditto this.... HUGE!  Everything is HUGE! And I never get around to mailing things back.

    They do have some cute things, but I would totally advise you size down. IN EVERYTHING....

  • Pretty sure you can return in the store if you've purchased online. Have fun shopping!

  • I've only purchased one thing from ON Maternity thus far and it ran true to size. Although, I must say I didn't really shop at ON pre-pg, so my experience with them is limited.
  • They run a bit bigger and yes you can return in store.
  • I just ordered some tops from ON.  I found that they run big but I am kind of in between sizes.  I ordered 2 different sizes and the smaller one fit much better.  I had to return the shirts that did not fit by UPS...but it cost me nothing.  You just print out a prepaid shipping label and drop it off at the nearest UPS drop off.  (I took mine to a Mailboxes Etc.)

    I am not a fan of their jeans/pants though.  I tried a few different pairs on at my local store (they have a very small section of maternity) and none of them really fit.  One size was way too small...the next size up was huge.
