@warmwinter My boobs are giant and I haven't been fitting into my regular bras in months. I bought these off Amazon (recommended by the Bump) and honestly, they are so comfy. 3 for $30, so even when I outgrow, it's NBD to replace. For reference I got an XL and I am a 36DDD/E pre-pregnancy. Also, they come with size extenders for each bra.
I ordered two nursing bras off of Motherhood Maternity and they shipped today, ill let you guys know how I like them! I've been wearing the sports bra like ones (from amazon) but the padding has started looking funny under shirts and to be honest I miss wearing a "real" bra, lol! So hopefully these fit (had to guess size) and work well!
I got a couple of pairs of over belly leggings/bike shorts from Senita and like them - they're much more on the athletic wear side of things (very polyester), but they're comfy and have pockets! I also got a pair of inset denim shorts from Motherhood Maternity and love them so far!

Thanks for all the feedback! Going to look into all of the ones specifically recommended. I've gotten to a point where I feel like my body has changed so much, and so I have no idea what to expect going forward! Afraid I'm going to outgrow everything I own each week, haha.
I'm 26wks and 5 days and while I can still wear some of my jeans that are a very low rise and will fit under my belly, the shirts were a bit of a problem once the belly really popped out because then they were just too short. I picked up a couple maternity tees and tanks at Walmart that are very comfortable and cute.
@spottedheifer the Walmart maternity tees and tanks are probably my favorite find. They are cheap and super comfortable... and Wmart is the only place in my little town to buy maternity clothes. The only other place is a Target 30 minutes away, and their selection is super disappointing (so small) these day.
So, I got my Motherhood Maternity bras in yesterday and wanted to let you guys know what I thought... I got one sleep bra and one "normal" bra (both nursing)
Demi bra: https://www.motherhood.com/collections/nursing-bras/products/demi-underwire-maternity-and-nursing-bra-006-1209m-999-001?variant=33931047895176 This one I LOVE! I really wanted a bra that felt like a bra... not like a sports bra. I have tons of the sports bra type ones too from Amazon but when I want to dress up a bit those were super bulky under certain tops. This one fits true to size as far as I can tell (I was a 32b pre-pregnancy and got a 34C and it fits great). I bought it for $15, and it feels good on, and the nursing snaps are easy to do one handed.
Shame on you @bserena I just went to their website to buy the Demi Bras... $160 later. I’m getting all kinds of goodie.😬 I better hide the package from DH. I even bought a dress to wear to my brother in laws wedding on November 7th that I’m 90% sure I am not going to. 🤦🏼♀️ They are having a good sale though 🤗.
@potofgolden Ooo I like that dress! Looks perfect for the fall! HAHA at your DD. Mine would do the same She also loves to randomly walk over and lift up whatever shirt (or dress) I'm wearing to "inspect" my belly: AKA stick her finger in my belly button and then giggle uncontrollably, pat the babies, blow raspberries, occasionally give it kisses, or her favorite pretend she's gonna give it a kiss and then LICK my belly She's my little weirdo.

I do really like this, especially at the sale price ($12.74). It is super comfy, I slept in it last night. Only thing is I think it runs a bit small so I should've sized up, especially considering once my milk comes in I am sure I'll need a bigger one.
