It's usually a matter of weeks before your clothing will get too tight and you must shift your wardrobe to maternity clothing.
Keeping up with your changing shape and finding maternity clothing that fits can be a real challenge and sometimes a real financial drain. But with a little know-how and planning you can have a wardrobe that will work with you throughout your entire pregnancy.
There are several things to keep in mind when buying maternity clothing.
Buy the staples. This means when invest in a good pair of maternity jeans. Jeans go with many different tops and will help you not to have to purchase too many other bottoms.
All the bottoms in your maternity wardrobe should have adjustable drawstring or elastic waists that can expand with you.
When buying maternity clothing, remember that comfort should be a big factor. Pregnancy is uncomfortable enough without making your life miserable with clothes that don't fit comfortably.

Begin buying your maternity clothing only when your current clothes become uncomfortably tight. By waiting you'll get a better idea of how you'll look in the clothes with a belly.
Don't depend exclusively on the pillows in retail stores to tell you how certain clothes will fit as you get bigger. They don't take into account that most pregnant women get more than just a big belly; they gain weight all over.
Don't forget to make sure all the tops in your maternity clothing selections have some room for growth in the chest. You're going to expand there too.
Buy a few pieces of maternity clothing at a time. You'll find that near the end of your pregnancy, you might not be able to fit as comfortably the clothes you could fit into at the beginning of your pregnancy.
If you want to know the types of maternity clothing styles available without running around to all sorts of stores, use the Internet to your advantage. Visit several maternity clothing Web sites to get an idea of what's available.
You can even order online, and sometimes these Web stores have great clearance sections.
