I've done Destination Maternity (combo Motherhood and A Pea in the Pod) - actually been there several times. It's the same old styles, just in different colors. I went to Old Navy (the one at Crossroads) yesterday and they had the sorriest selection. It consisted of maybe 5 styles of shirts and some of the ugliest pants I've ever seen. I checked Target, but they appear to only offer maternity clothes online. There's no way I'm buying anything without trying it on first. Where did everyone shop?
Re: Where to shop for maternity clothes
I have always had good luck at Gap (at Triangle Towne Center or Southpoint). They can be expensive but their clearance rack is awesome- last weekend I bought two nice work shirts and my total was under $25. Sign up for their emails so you can get coupons and shop when they have deals going on mostly on the weekends.
I would check another Target. The 4 or 5 that I have been to in Raleigh have a great maternity clothes selection- I bought 2 dresses and 2 work shirts from Target and they are good quality.
Hope that helps!
I always had good luck with Ann Taylor Loft maternity section and Gap maternity. Also, like pp, I've found some good items at Target stores.
Maybe try Kohl's too. They have a small selection but might have some good finds.

I shopped Loft, Gap, Target, Old Navy and Destination. Had decent luck with all, depending on what I was looking for. I would check different store locations for things. For instance, the Old Navy at Beaver Creek Commons in Apex had a good selection, IMO, but those at other stores weren't so great.
Do you have any nice consignment shops around you? We have one in Wilmington that has an awesome maternity selection. You might be surprised what you find. It certainly made me feel better knowing I wasn't spending a ton of money on clothes I'd wear a few months.
But, I would also shop at JcP, Motherhood Maternity, Target and order online from ON. But, the two pair of shorts I bought from ON were huge! Thank God I was carrying twins, cause I finally fit into them, eventually.
