I don't know if every pregnant woman in town has gotten to the dresses before me, or if designers just don't think pregnant women would want to wear dresses, but I just can't find them! I had the same problem when I was pregnant with Belle. There are a few, and by few I mean like one to three and in horrible styles that usually aren't the right size if they are half way acceptable. There aren't racks full of these awful dresses either, there are literally three dresses on the rack! It is driving me nuts. We have a couple more places we can check in town. It's been recommended to buy online, but I've not had a lot of luck buying clothes and shoes online. I need to be able to try it on.
While we were shopping, I saw a really funny t-shirt! It said, "Does this baby make me look fat?"
Speaking of fat, I've been really excited that I haven't been gaining the weight I did with the other kids. With each of them, I gained between 50 and 60 lbs. So far, I've kept it down. Last month, I only gained one pound!! Yay! I just hope that in this time of mega-weight-gain they call the third trimester, I can keep it up. I think it hasn't really been me, but the fact that we have been showing our house as well as cleaning and organizing to be ready to move! There are still a few more weeks until we move and then getting settled in. I always do better when I can be busy and not bored at the refrigerator!

Maternity shopping is one of the worst things EVER (right up there with swimsuit shopping). It's been long enough for me that I can't recommend anyplace, although for nursing clothes, I adored MotherWear. Good luck!
This is why I have stuck to a maternity skirt.
Congrats on the 1 pound gain in a month. Very impressive.
Third trimester weight gain? I hope mine isn't bad. I was lucky with the first two to only gain 31 and 32 pounds, but I am afraid I have been a little too indulgent with this one - too many hormones and a gloomy winter don't help!
I can't even find a skirt! I live in a town with a lot of pregnant women, even! I could sew one, but I just don't want to at this point.
My best maternity dresses aren't maternity, they are just really stretchy regular dresses. One is a jumper and the other has an empire waist. And the best part is that I can still wear them when I'm not pregnant.
I wish I could say the same about my weight, but I'm not moving and I'm always hungry (or bored, and they are the same thing to me).
I know everyone is pregnant here, but I'm sure its just like everyothertown usa...no good maternity clothes. Where we lived before they even had lots of maternity specialty stores,but the prices were ridiculous and they still didn't have clothes that fit me well. My problem was trying to find maternity pants that don't look five inches too short on me. I'm convinced they don't exist. And in the summer forget it, all the maternity stuff is sleeveless. Whats up with that?
