Maternity cardigans.....necessary?

I need some cardigans that are lightweight for spring, summer and fall. ON is having a great sale right now, and I saw some maternity ones I like. But, I'm wondering if maternity ones are pointless since they are the kind that are open with no buttons - they won't be going over a bump. Seems like I could get a normal one that I could use post-pregnancy too.

So,  maternity cardigans - pointless or necessary?

Re: Maternity cardigans.....necessary?

  • Pointless.

    but I loved my maternity hoodie - it was fleece lined and so cozy. Got it at the gap 

  • That is what I thought. Thing is, I may get them anyway - they are on sale for $17, and you get an extra 20% off, so they'll be pretty cheap. Wondering if maybe the reverse is true - since they are open I could maybe wear them non-pregnant.

  • I picked up 2 used on my fb swap site, and I have loved having them this spring! I don't know that I would have bothered to pay full price for new ones though.

  • I don't plan on getting any...I'll just wear ones I have. I am due In December, so maybe I will change my mind once it gets colder, though!

    This, but I'm due around Halloween, so it shouldn't be that cold for me.

  • Yeah I would just get normal ones. That's what I did with my last pregnancy.
