HI ladies...I am wondering if anyone knows of any good maternity clothes shops/websites...I live in Newcastle NSW. I am needing a place that deals with "plus size" clothing, as I am far from a skinny minnie
The thought of not having anything to wear come the later stage of my pregnancy is scaring me to death and with twins, I am worried I will be even bigger!! So far i have lost a few kgs, but I'm sure that will change now that my m/s is starting to ease up a little..
Anyway, thanks in advance for any info!! I appreciate it greatly! Take Care

Hi Deb!!!
Congrats on the TWINS!!!! How exciting!!
I bought most of my maternity clothes from Target when I was pg with ds. They go up to size 18. There is also this great website http://www.maternitywear.com.au/ which has some plus-sized maternity stuff for a reasonable price.
The plus-sized maternity wear market is SADLY lacking.....good luck with your search - I hope you find some clothes soon!!!!
I got all of my plus size maternity from Motherhood Maternity. They have good prices, just remember to order you regular size, as they make allowances for the tummy.
I bought most of my maternity tops from www.gapmaternity.com . THey had some really cute stuff up xxl. I was surprised. I still enjoy many of those tops now. I bought my pants at target. I was about a size 22 when I got pregnant, but lost some weight. My very favorite top I picked up at Walmart, but their selection stinks. They only have one rack and most of them only go to large.
Thanks for your responses ladies....I have searched for maternity wear in Oz, but i'm with you Amy, there is not alot out there for the plus sized woman Kinda sucks dont it! Maybe they dont think larger woman fall pregnant??!! Geez, what a strange concept!! Makes me so mad...ohhh well...I guess I'll find some stuff, hopefully!! Thanks again for your replies!! It is greatly appreciated!!

Debbie - Have you checked out ebay? There are some suppliers on there that make some really cute stuff from scratch - size 8 - 26. You let them know your size when you order. Just be careful when ordering 'non stretch' stuff - I order a really nice top in my normal size, no stretch in the fabric and it sometimes feels a tiny bit too tight in the arms.
There are also other 'plus sized' chicks that sell their stuff second hand. I just picked up some really nice stuff for not even a third of what you would pay retail. And maximum amount of time it would have been worn is 6 months - even less if you take into account season changes.
Depending on how long you can hold out and what size you are, I will be selling a lot of my stuff on there soon!
Anyway, good luck!!
