Where did you guys buy maternity clothes?
I've gotten a couple things at Motherhood, Target, Kohls and Old Navy. I have bump bucks for MH and a gift card from them on the way so I will get a couple more things from them. But I'm trying to keep the cost low. I'm already 18w4d and not in maternity clothes yet, though the day is fast approaching. Are there any good consignment shops around?

Holly- I heard there is a great Consignment Shop in Westford. I never went but I think CDC has been. I got most of my clothes at ON & Target and a whole bunch from a friend.
My friend who is super petite found it hard to find maternity clothes that fit her-- I can ask her where she got her clothes if you want.
Hey Holly - I loved buying maternity clothes (sometimes, other times it was frustrating). Anyway, I had ok luck at Motherhood for pants and some tops/tunics. I had good luck at Old Navy for pants and tshirts and also their "fold down or fold over" yoga pants are great - I would just not fold them down, I wore those all thru pregnancy (even to work at the end when I just didn't care anymore) an now I can still use them, I just do fold them down). I had great luck at Gap for tops - the one in the Northshore Mall for tops and hit a great sale there once. I loved their shirts. I did not love Target actually, their stuff just never fit me right or made me feel to frumpy.
Anyway, my best advice is to watch the sales and just be ready to do lots of laundry so you always have stuff to wear. It is annoying.
Oh, and for petites I have heard Ann Taylor maternity is great but obv I'm not petite and I found their stuff expensive. I bet you'd have good luck with Gap!
I don't know about consignment places...once I was publicly pregnant at work I got away with jeans at work as that is ok in our dress code anyway (just not for managers and above which I was, but people didn't seem to care).
