I hate paying full price for anything, especially maternity clothes that are up charged!
FYI - Target is having a 25% off President's Day sale that includes maternity clothes. Their basic tanks and t-shirts are buy 1 get 1 50% off (and you can apply the additional 25% off on top of that). If you have their red card, that's another 5% off.
If you're buying maternity clothes or any clothes from H&M, this website always has discounted gift cards! I've seen discounts as high as 40% off. Right now they have mostly ~20% off gift cards. https://www.raise.com/buy-h-m-gift-cards
I always use raise for everything!! I got cards for Motherhood Maternity when I bought from there last weekend for 20% off! It's great because since it's just a gift card, you can still use any other coupons/discounts on top of that!
@LoveLee85 I'm so sorry I just saw this! It's a maxi with a sash that you can take off! I had the same dress in 3 different designs and they were my go to dresses all summer long!
Okay this might not be everyone's cup of tea but I just found this site and oh man, i love this stuff! They're having a 40% sale but I just bought a pair of h&m jeans so I'm holding off on buying some pants on hatch but I just got a cute drapey dress that I'd wear even if I wasn't pregnant (justifying the price here)
I bought ON maternity pixie pants with the side panel and MAN do they stretch. I'm sure they'll be easier to keep up once I have more of a bump (I hope?) but right now I'm regretting not wearing a belt with them.
Has anyone bought bathing suits from Motherhood? There's a polka-dot one I'm currently crushing on and my MIL gave me a gift card, but I don't know how it will fit and don't think they carry them in stores.

@karissa0307 you are totally fine! No worries, I do that a lot because mobile bumping isn't always reliable! Lol Thank you for the update! I'm going to order one soon. Can't wait.
@PurplePumpernickel I bought MM bathing suits last pregnancy, and I still wear them 4 years later - they're actually my favorite ones. I bought 2 tankinis, and the size I was normally wearing at the time was correct. It's been 4 years, so they are a little tired now, but I will probably go back to them for more.
Maternity swimwear? I use wear my bikini, bc hello, it's just a belly. I don't like my belly so much this time around, so I want a tankini style and I've never bought maternity swimsuits before.

I just bought a tankini at MM for $40 (top and bottom). I loved the two I got from them last time, and have worn them since. You can't really tell they're maternity unless you have a belly. They lasted 4 full summers, and probably have a few more in them. Unfortunatelt, they are hard to get on sale anywhere, and they sell out faat. Supply and demand...
Love my MM tankini tops, I just pair with the bottoms I already have (because I've always had thighs and behind for days and they stretch lol). I just got a Liz Lange top I love from target.
MM is 25% off today so I ordered one of these tankini suits that you're raving about. Thanks @chiquita928 and @nikkiandchris. They have a maternity pool class at my gym that I want to check out and wanted to get a proper suit to go.
@PurplePumpernickel I got the hibiscus print. I love the polka dot one but I have black bottoms and don't see a point in buying maternity bottoms. I just want something to cover my belly. I paid $30 plus shipping, it betterrifies get here quick. The pool is calling my name and I need to get my kids out of the house.
@MrsLa3 Mine is a one-piece, so no bottoms needed, lol. I have some time before pool/beach season (I'm in Boston) but I know I'll need some dips in the ocean once the temperature rises.

Today it's 82, and only getting hotter through the week. We had a 3 day winter last month. It's hot, I need water in my life.
Can we talk shoes? It occurred to me that the cute dressy ballet flats that I usually wear to work on the spring and summer are not going to be supportive enough this year. Anyone have recommendations for shoes with good arch support and good soles that are still somewhat professional and would look decent with a skirt or dress pants?
@GreenBean I have actually found a lot of cute loafers (would have never thought of that style before) which I wear with pants, skirts and dresses. Nordstrom has a ton. I wasn't pleasantly surprised with Kristen Cavalleri's ( sp?) loafers! They are very comfortable and supportive and super cute. I've gotten three different colors!
@chiquita928 lol I was going to ask the same thing. I have pretty big feet for being petite so I feel like most shoes make me look like I have clown feet
I regularly (2x/mo) buy $150-$300 in stuff off Asos and end up returning about half of it (we go to a lot of weddings and bs formal or semi formal work events sooooooo sue me?) I've just switched to maternity instead. Some of the stuff is pretty decent I think and I love free returns obviously. I've never gotten shoes from there for some reason but it's a great idea!
Also, you can save another 2-2.5% (sometimes more) if you first click on the ASOS link, MM link, GAP maternity link, etc through ebates. If you're new to ebates you can also get $10 when you sign up with the link below:
I also do ebates which my husband laughed at until we started getting $50 checks in the mail. Still not sure where the money comes from (and what happens if you return that stuff?) but I'm gonna leave that to the internet gods.

i thought the same exact thing and then I saw them in store and the sales lady brought me a couple other loafers and I was hooked!

I've gotten refund checks for about $200 just by going here first for stuff I'm already going to buy (clothes, shutterfly books, etc.).
