I will be heading up to the Cities from southern MN next Sunday to go to the State Fair, and I desperately need to expand my maternity wardrobe. There is a Motherhood Maternity down by me, but that is about it. Our Old Navy Store got rid of their maternity just after my BFP. Anyone have suggestions of places to stop that would be on the way? Especially any that have great sales?
Re: Maternity shopping suggestions
100% sure you should check out Bellies to Babies in Richfild. a very very cool place here is there website

I second the Bellies to Babies recommendation. It's a consignment shop, so if you don't mind used clothes. Shirts are $6 and pants are $9.
Also, keep in mind that not all Old Navy's (or any store for that matter) carry maternity - the one in Edina doesn't, but the one in Eden Prairie does. Not sure about the rest of the cities.
I also bought some things at JC Penney and Macy's. I love my MM stuff the most though. You can buy the same MM brands at Kohl's though to save you money. The selection is sometimes slightly different.
I've also heard the Gap maternity isn't bad and Babies R Us, but I personally haven't checked them out.

The MOA has both Gap Maternity (located in the Baby Gap) and Old Navy Maternity. Gap Maternity has always had a great selection of clearance. Also there's another maternity consignment shop not too far from Bellies to Babies called Nine Consign (www.nineconsign.com).

I also loved Bellies to Babies. H & M at the MOA has a maternity section. If you're looking for high-end clothes, check out Hot Mama on Grand Ave. in St. Paul and Bloomingdale's maternity section at the MOA. I can't really afford either, but they have really darling clohtes.
As a side note, I personally found Nine to be way overpriced for a consignment shop. Enjoy!
