The prices were definitely higher than thrift shops and yard sales, but they were still good deals and I could count on them having something for me. Most of our thrift stores do a crappy job of separating maternity clothes from the regular ones, or they group them in with scrubs and pajamas. Not helpful!

I had some shirts that weren't maternity but definitely had room to grow, so I'd been using those until I got a little too big for them. At this point, I love being pregnant and want to do it 20 more times. But I know that's not a good idea! ;) We'll see how I feel after the baby gets here!

I did many of those things. I was fortunate that for both pregnancies, I was growing at pretty much the same rate so my summer maternity and winter maternity worked for when I was roughly that size. Heh! Other things I did: try to find seasonless pieces that can be mixed up with a lot of different things, like tops that are fine for warm weather or could work in the winter with a sweater on top or something. Even now, when I buy a non-maternity item it gets bonus points if it would work while pregnant for a time. For instance, I bought a few more cardigans recently. I will be able to wear those over a baby belly or open. Oh man, I need to stop talking about being pregnant again. My baby is still a baby! Ok for the record I am looking forward to having another baby someday soon but I just can't really think about that right now. kbye. Yep! I did many of those things.
