I was really disappointed with the lack of decent maternity clothes (unless you spend a fortune) on the high street when I was pregnant.

So here’s my best of the worst run-down.

Dorothy Perkins – Good for jeans and casual tops, reasonably priced too.

Topshop – Small range, but they do have some ‘night-out’ outfits, but personally I thought they were a bit plain and everything was black.

Next – Has a good-sized range, similar in style to the rest of their ‘non-maternity’ clothes.

H & M – Wide variety of hit or miss pieces…….however I found one huge hit which proved to be invaluable……….denim dungarees £29.99, you may laugh now, but wait until your 8 and a half months pregnant and nothing fits (except your husbands clothes….if your lucky!).

New Look – Launched a range in April 2006. The range will have a variety of pieces priced from £5 – £28.

As far as I found the following shops had no range at all tut tut.

Gap, Bay Trading, River Island..shame on you all!!

(However don’t overlook them completely as there were a lot of non-maternity styles that were versatile enough to wear, my favourites were gypsy skirts in just a size larger and stretchy tops)
