Where are some good, cheap places to shop around here? I know of Destination Maternity in the mall, but it's a bit pricey. The other places are Target (Liz Lange collection) and H&M.
Gap Outlet in Hebron. They have all the Gap brand stuff for cheap. You do have to plan on being there for awhile and really browsing. It has usually been worth it as they have a big variety of clothes.
Destination Maternity is nice but make sure you go to the back that is the Motherhood section. The front is all Pea in a Pod and pretty expensive or just try a Motherhood store (there's one in Rookwood). Old Navy does have some decent stuff online but, I wasn't impressed with the selection at the Kenwood or Rookwood stores.
The Gap outlet in Hebron is nice but just make sure you try stuff on bc a lot of stuff is marked wrong or may have some defects that are too big to deal with. I found a few nice things there over the summer. Find out when they get their shipments in bc their stock can change frequently!
I don't know how you feel about sharing clothes but if you have any friends who were pregnant recently, you could ask to borrow some of their maternity clothes.
Thanks everyone! I went to the Gap Clearance Center, which I've been to before, but forgot they had a maternity section. I loved it, I highly recommend that as the #1 place.
I'm not sure if you mind if they are used or not but there is a great place in Fairfield called re runs for wee runs on route 4 and they have barely used items for dirt cheap. I got a dress for $4.50. Also I love a place in evendale on reading road called valley thift. I never shopped in thift stores before and I love it. They have a large selection of maternity, unless I beat you there lol. I even checked the goodwill by my house and found capris from motherhood maternity that looked barely worn. No point to spending a lot on clothes you won't wear forever.

Some resale shops have maternity clothes--Snooty Fox does for sure, and I think Clothes Mentor does as well.
I got a lot of mine from Target & Old Navy. My favorite jeans were from JC Penney.
