Maternity clothes

[mrsminniemouse]

Hi! I live in England and will be travelling to WDW when I am about 20 weeks pregnant in February.

When I was pg with DD2.5 I had trouble finding nice maternity clothes here. Not many shops sell them and the selection is pretty poor.

Previously in Orlando I noticed many stores do carry nice stuff. Can anyone recommend where in the WDW area I should look for maternity clothes?

We usually go to Mall at Millenia, Belz and Premium Outlets. I was going to look in Gap and Macys. Any other places to try?

Thanks!

Old Navy--but not all stores carry maternity. oldnavy.com may be worth a peak for you.

Target also carries a nice maternity line. JC Penney's carries stuff--but I haven't been impressed with my last two pregnancies with their selections.

Motherhood Maternity can have some nice stuff... I agree about Old Navy. Also depending on your budget and style there are a lot of high end maternity clothes makers, like Mimi Maternity.

Do Macy's in FL still carry maternity wears? Around here, Macy's stopped carrying them years ago.

Gap maternity is only available on-line, though I've got an e-mail from them recently announcing they will be opening Maternity stores.

Some of retail stores that carry maternity clothes exclusively are Motherhood, Mimi's Maternity, and A Pea in the Pod.

Happy Shopping!

Fashion Bug just started a maternity line. They are kinda preppy, but I need clothes and they were affordable.

I know that some Kmart has clothes, but I didn't find anything that I liked..

I also just bought shirts from the 'women's ' area at walmart and target. They were good to wear after the baby came. The big shirts were great for covering us up while nursing..

Same with the sweats. I had 2 winter baby's and I lived in my sweats. It was too cold to take them out.
I really only had Maternity pants and shorts...

Thanks ladies for your replies. Looking forward to shopping in Orlando next year!

That's not totally true. We've had maternity clothes at one of our Gaps for a year or two (Right after I had DS they started carrying it!). The other two Gaps around here don't have any, but one does.

I bought most of my stuff from Gap, Old Navy, and Target. I found a few things at Motherhood, but I found most of their stuff fit me funny. I did find a Mickey Mouse maternity shirt at JC Penney. We didn't have a MiMi Maternity when I was pregnant...we have one now and their stuff looks nice, but pricey.

I was at the Premium Outlets in Sept. and they had a great store that carried Mimi Maternity, Motherhood & Pea in a Pod -- all the same parent company. I got some great bargains there, and the selection was good. We went to the Florida Mall and the only maternity I found was Motherhood.

May also want to check Kohls. They do have a few stores there. Go to Kohls.com and do the store locator for exact location. You can also look at their maternity stuff online to get an idea.... http://www.kohls.com/main/category.jsp?FOLDER<>folder_id=3894331&bmUID=1134013924613
