Maternity Clothes... 101

So the bump finally popped! 

It took 27 weeks but I now at 30+ weeks
I officially feel pregnant and I am starting to run out of wardrobe options. 

So I decided to email one of my friends with regards to her pregnancy wardrobe three weeks ago.

She made a couple of recommendations for me. 

-  Buy a couple basics

-  Shop at places that do not sell Maternity Stuff

-  Borrow if possible

-  Find outfits in our closet that can work pregnant and non pregnant.

I do not want to spend a lot of money on my pregnancy wardrobe because the reality was that I have only 3 more months to be pregnant and also I can wear scrubs at work everyday so I am very fortunate in the fact that I do not have to purchase "professional/work" clothes. 

So I started out last weekend by visiting one of my friends who was nice enough to let me borrow a couple of basics. 

-1 Long sleeve pregnancy black Shirt from Target Maternity

-1 Pregnancy Sweater from Motherhood Maternity

-1 Pregnancy Dress from Motherhood Maternity

-1 Pregnancy skirt

- 2 sets of pregnancy leggins

I then really looked thru my closet and found that I have 3-4 sweater dresses that would work perfect with Maternity leggins.  I also had 2-3 sweater that worked well with jeans and a couple of shirts. 

I also borrowed a Target Maternity Pregnancy Sweat Dress from another friend. 

So Saturday afternoon, I headed out to H&M on a recommendation. 

I will admit that I have never ever been into this store. 

I walked in with an open mind. 
I left with a sweater dress and a regular dress that I am hoping I can wear to my shower. 

Both cost me 40 dollars. 

Neither were pregnancy items but they way they were cut, they were perfect and have lots of wiggle room. 

Then on Sunday, I headed to Destination Maternity to shop for a really nice pair of Jeans. 

Since I do not have to spend a lot of money maternity clothes, I knew that I wanted to buy 1 nice pair of Maternity Jeans.  I felt a little guilty about spending this much money on jeans but when I reminded myself that I had not purchases a single piece of clothing since July so I did not feel bad because 4 months of not purchasing a single item justified it in my mind.
 I decided on a pair of 7 for All Mankind Maternity Jeans in Petite once my hubby pointed out how cute my butt looked.
DONE and DONE!!!

This was my splurge!!!

Any pregnancy pieces of clothing that you loved?
