maternity clothes suck

Ugh I am 18 weeks and have gained 9 pounds and am really disappointed with the variety and selection of maternity clothes out there!  Even the super expensive ones are totally ugly!  I have gone to Macy's and Old Navy and a couple consignment places and found nothing - I got a few very neutral pieces from the Gap.  

 What is with the horizontal stripe trend for pregnant ladies?!?!1  My boobs and belly are expanding and the last thing I want is a garment that makes me look even wider!  Ugh!!!  Anyone else frustrated with the selection???  Looks like it's going to be leggings and men's shirts for me for the next four and a half months...

  • For the most part I shopped at all my favorite stores and just went up a size or 2. Worked out really well for both of my pregnancies.  I really like GAP maternity too!

  • I bought almost no actual maternity clothes.  I had a lot of trouble with the fit, and for the price I thought the quality on most of them was very poor.
