Maternity t-shirts

My favorite ones are the ruched ones from either Target or Old Nacy. How do they hold up? I want to get more ON ones since I can use my discount but I also need them to last. What are  your thoughts?
Congrats to my TTC buddy Madeline! Cheering for all the strong 3T ladies!

Re: Maternity t-shirts

  • I lived in my ON ones in the last few months.....they held up pretty well! I had the same shirt in 4-5 colors.
     
    That's what I do, find a good shirt and get a few colors in it. Can't go wrong with that.

    I have the non-rusched ones from Liz Lange in a few colors and the ON one in one color. I am debating which ones to get more of now too.

  • I had one shirt like that from target and I wore it from the beginning until close to the end and it held up well.

    I LOVE my Target ones. I've had them since about 15 weeks, and they still fit and are holding up great. I have a bunch from ON, too, and while I like them, I just noticed the other day that they seem to not be holding up as well. I don't know if they shrunk a little in the wash or if I'm just getting too big for them, but I don't know that they will last until the very end.

    ETA: Not that the ON ones are falling apart or anything, btw... they just seem to be a little shorter than I'd like and it makes me worry that I'll be too big for them before too much longer.

    This makes sense. I feel like my non-maternity tees are definitely getting too short or don't do anything to flatter the bump. I was giving some maternity tees that are still too big. I need something that is flattering now lol.

  • Ditto on the ON tees being shorter than other brands. I still like them, but there's no way they would last half of a pregnancy for me since my bump is getting pretty big.

  • I have a few shirts from Target and ON (ruched and non ruched) that I'm using again this time. I've had good luck with ON clothes in general.

  • I don't have many t shirts but I do have 3 tank tops from Target and I LOVE them. I wear them almost every day under my shirts.

  • All of my maternity clothes came from ON or Target and both have held up really well all the way until the end. I'm not a big t-shirt person though, even if they're fitted so I only have 2 and both are from Target

  • I love my ON tees! I also layer mine with camis too. Mine from last time look perfect and I can't wait until Nov 1st to pull them out!

    I had a few ON ruched tanks that lasted until the end even though I was huge at the end. But I'm short waisted so maybe that's why they covered my huge bump? And they were still in great shape. I also had some of the long sleeved tops and they were great too.
