maternity clothes

So I've been basically everywhere shopping for maternity clothes and am having NO luck! The motherhood store in Brookfield NEVER has size large... today the lady went as far as to say "you could try the medium or the xl" Um NO lady, I'm a large, the reason I'm here is because I refuse to sausage my pregnant butt into my pre-pregnancy jeans any longer and I also refuse to look like a homeless lady in giant clothes... I should add I've been to the mall and Kohl's already looking as well. 

Any ideas where else to look? Any good online sites that have cheap shipping?  Any ideas near the New Berlin area?

Re: maternity clothes

  • So, you went to the Destination Maternity in Brookfield? There's Motherhood Maternity in the Southridge Mall and inside BRU. JCPenney has an online Maternity section, I'm not sure about in-store. Motherhood Maternity has a free shipping offer going on right now, with a $75 order.

  • Yes I went to the Destination Maternity, which has pea in a pod (way out of my budget!) and motherhood. They just NEVER have any variety in sizes.

    I guess I should go to the Motherhood store. I'm going to go to the JBF sale at the end of the month but I need a few things now!

  • Old Navy Online has a great Maternity Sections, Maybe try a different Kohl's They all have different stuff I know when I was PG I was at one that had maybe 5 things and then the next one had tons. Also you could try TJ Maxx on Bluemound or Marshalls and Burlington Coat Factory on Capitol Dr and 124th.

  • I got a lot of cute stuff at Kohls. I love ON too. I also just bough shirts a larger size and that worked for me. I wore long tanks under my t-shirts and it had everything covered. :) Good luck!

  • I ditto Old Navy and Gap online.  Also check out Ann Taylor Loft online for their maternity clothes.

    I would add that I never had ANY luck going to stores, everything I wore I found online. 

  • if your in a pinch for MC then why not try a child's resale shop.  I know that in West Bend there is two resale stores that sell MC and cheap too or cheaper Goodwill or St. Vinny's.  OR try Craigslist that's what i did.  Just remember most of these women wore these clothes for 6 to 8 mths and that was it.

  • I hated buying maternity clothes because they all seemed so expensive when you're just wearing them for a few months.  I had some luck shopping at Half Price Kids Stuff in Bay View.  I know it's not in your idea area, but they had quite a few things there and only accept brand name clothing.  It's worth a look and it costs a lot less than new stuff and looks new.  

    Here's their website: http://halfpricekidstuff.com/

  • You could also try Target. They have a small section, but I found some really cute shirts there during my first pregnancy.

     FYI-ON doesn't take the maternity clothes back at the store, you need to mail them back.
