Are Maternity Clothes Necessary?
As a plus-sized woman who already wears stretchy and loose clothes, you may be wondering if you can just make due with the clothes you have? The best plan is to take it a week at a time. It is quite possible you can wear the clothes you already own until the seventh or eighth month of pregnancy. Then you may need to invest in a few few select pieces of plus size maternity clothes to tide you over until you deliver your baby. If you wear size 28 or larger, you may not need maternity clothes at all. Instead, you might find that you can wear loose-fitting, trapeze, and empire-styled non-maternity clothes in a size or two larger than your pre-pregnancy size.
