Of all the things I hate to spend money on, maternity clothes had to be right at the top of the list. You wear them for such a short time! But you feel dumpy and ungainly and want to wear something pretty! It’s a conundrum for the frugal, for sure.
I solved it (mostly) by sharing maternity clothing with friends, shopping consignment, and then splurging on a few pieces I loved when I could find them on sale. Right now you have three choices for maternity options at even better prices—all of the sale stuff at Destination Maternity, Motherhood Maternity, and A Pea In The Pod is an extra 30% off when you put it in your cart, automatically.
And aside from the sale prices, just to be grateful about how far maternity fashions have come over the years. Because I spent my pregnancy with my oldest wearing a pair of brown flowered overalls. Not even kidding.
Thankfully I don’t need this deal (bread n’ butter, salt over the shoulder, knock on wood, etc.) but I would like to lodge a complaint…..
What MAN thinks it’s necessary to have strings that tie around the elevated midriff of pregnant women? I spent entirely too much time snipping the strings off my tops as I stopped wearing floppy bows on my body around the time I retired the pigtails.
Soapbox over.
