Also anyone that is in ChCh there is a wee shop on the cnr of Westminster and Cranford called Ladybumps that sells second hand maternity wear at good prices - I use to own it but have sold it (so am not advertising for myself!!!!). They have kept the prices low still though so it may be worth checking out as often Mat wear is still in good condition.
They als buy your old stuff so a good way of making money without mucking around on TM.

I just used the codes and managed to get a pair of jeans for $17.99 woohoo!!!
Got some other pants and a top as well for the grand total of $55.
There is a link to a great website link that gives you all the codes and what is in stock, which colours sizes and the prices as well as linking you straight to PP so you can buy them. |
ahhh now I see! Thanks, I will have to have a thorough look thru there

I went to The Warehouse at Queensgate in Lower Hutt today, and they have the Maya Maternity range there.
But the sizing is quite big. I was a size 10 pre-pregnancy, and I only have a little tiny bump, so really don't fit maternity stuff yet. Anyhow, I tried on the size 10 maternity jeans, and they were massive around my hips and legs!!! I did buy a pair in the end, only because I envision I will get bigger soon.
The range of tops are ok, however they aren't cut very well, so can make you look a bit shapeless (this is just my opinion). I suppose in the end, you get what you pay for.
But I think I will be sticking to Pumpkin Patch and Egg, because at least the clothing fits better and is tailored very well. I know I pay a premium price, but I am not too worried about that.

I found Egg far too expensive since Ill only be wearing them for a few months.
Pumpkin Patch is good, I have a few items from there.

It goes up to a size 20, however the sizing is very generous.

I went to the warehouse today and OMG the sizing is huge. I'm normally a size 10-12 but their size 10s were swimming on me. I managed to get a couple of tops but that was it. Maternity tops really annoy me, they seem to assume that everyone is gonna have mega boobs, well i'm still a size 12 A  so they all fit my bump but not my boobs. Might have to buy some of those chicken fillet things.

The pumpkin patch site is great! About 10 things, $160! I set for the next 14 weeks.
Can't bear wondering what to wear right now, nothing fits! Few tops & linen pants - sorted.
