maxi dresses & skirts with elastic waists that you already own work great during pregnancy. during colder months, just layer up! anything with spandex (like tanks & tees) transition well as maternity wear!

thrift shops won't have a maternity section, but a few cute items that are a couple sizes larger can carry you through pregnancy just fine! big sweaters & oversized tops work great!

got a friend who was recently pregnant or has young children? hit her up & ask if she still has any maternity wear she can give or loan you!

no one likes email spam but signing up for sale alerts with maternity retailers can help you save big on things like nursing bras & other essentials!
