Answer 1

I luckily don't have to work, so when i was pregnant I wore alot of sweatpants, tshirts and hoodies, ,so when I got bigger I could just leave the zipper open and wear a t-shirt underneath, I hated maternity jeans the elastic front kept slipping down underneath my belly. The only dressy thing I ever wore when I was pregnant was a dress shirt for prego women with an empire waist, and a pair of dress pants. Just be comfortable, especially going to your OB appointments, ,if you wear sweatpants you can just pull the waist down for them to measure you.

Answer 2

I just wore whatever I put on that morning. If I were you I would buy 1-2 pair of pants and 3-4 shirts. I wouldn't spend a lot cause some of these clothes you might only be able to wear once or twice before you will need a different size.

Answer 3

I hate buying maternity clothes but my belly is huge I really have no choice but I wear a pair of maternity jeans I have 4 different pairs and a nice top sometimes I just wear a big t-shirt around the house I'm either in a nightgown or sweats.

Answer 4

I always wore my everyday clothes. One thing, that irritated me was the girls who were there every month, then every week in pajamas. Sweats and t-shirts, etc. are fine, but pajamas are ridiculous and show how lazy people are. There is no need to dress up, seeing as how at most appointments majority of the time is spent waiting to see the doctor for a whole 10 minutes. Also, I only bought 3 pairs of maternity pants total and that's only because the crotch kept ripping of them. I mainly wore regular T-shirts, just in bigger sizes. I bought 2 dress-up maternity shirts, because I was pregnant during the holidays. Oh, and bigger underwear! LOL!

Answer 5

I always wore what was comfortable. I had a couple pairs of pants and many tee-shirts. When it came to the belly measuring appts especially, I would make sure to wear pants and shirt so, I'd only have to pull my pants down a little and my shirt up a bit rather than pull a dress all the way up.

Answer 6

You scheduale sounds alot like mine (well except I have to run my other children places as well). I generally have a pair of nice maternity pants and a couple of nice tops. You never know when you might need/want to go somewhere that you'd like to look nice for (ie a nice dinner out perhaps?) For the rest I generally wear sweats and my hubby's t-shirts (very comfy). Definately stay away from high heels though (a person could kill themselves wearing those lol). Good luck!

Answer 7

Just buy a pair of maternity jeans and a few maternity tops for now and buy as you go. I never wore regular t-shirts because my belly got too big! I never dressed up for prenatal appointments. Just wore my regular clothes.

Answer 8

keep it simple. They will have you take off your lower half clothing during most appts so some that easily slips off works well. I wouldnt wear dresses or anything like that. Just a loose fitting shirt that can easily be lifted up

Answer 9

elasticated trouser and baggy t shirt

i just go to a mid wife
no need to dress up

my good maternity clothes are for work

i intend to work right up to 32 weeks - another 4 from tomorrow

Answer 10

I usually go to my ob appointments right after work, so I am wearing professional clothes, but it doesn't really matter what you wear (as long as it is clean). I recommend something that slides off easily.
