Preg one was in the summer so I could get away with a lot of non-maternity flowy tops and dresses and barely had to buy anything. Preg two was in the winter so I had to grab pants, more shirts and sweaters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1362097 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 15:42:53 +0000 LuLu Mom 1362097@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>if we get pregnant when we would like yes it will be exact opposite season (first pregnancy was January - October) next one fingers crossed will be June- March. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1362093 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 15:40:25 +0000 GrapeCrush 1362093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. My first pregnancy was during winter and spring. I had more sweaters and jeans. With my second I was pregnant through spring summer.

I had to get more pants for work, long sleeve shirts, jeans, etc. I was mainly in dresses the 1st time around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361729 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:48:10 +0000 regberadaisy 1361729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: sorry, mine are all local to save on shipping!<br /> I belong to one local FB mom group that has sub groups for mom items, infant items, kids, teens, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361721 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:45:53 +0000 Andrea 1361721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to buy more summer things the 2nd time, but I have continued to wear all my maternity clothes. I just sized up or bought flowy styles so they work preg/not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361720 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:45:43 +0000 mlm2934 1361720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: are there any FB resale groups specifically for maternity you recommend or are you just part of local exchanges? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361703 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:41:56 +0000 regberadaisy 1361703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought like 3 maternity items with M. I lived in regular empire waisted dresses and leggings through the winter. I have a puffer coat that was a bit big on me so I was able to wear that through my pregnancy.</p> <p>So even if I had clothes to reuse I wouldn't really let season dictate.</p> <p>This time around I'm more privy to FB resale and HB Classifieds so I've been slowly maternity staples for ridiculously cheap. I bought a bunch of tops for just shipping. I want to get 1-2 pair of lounge pants, one dress pants, one maternity shorts and that's it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361684 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:36:15 +0000 mlm2934 1361684@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm due in July, so I've been making do as best I can for now trying to avoid buying winter maternity clothes since I'm in the south and it will start to warm up by early March. I just bought a pair of maternity jeans and plan to make them last until I can start wearing capris and shorts. And plan to buy short sleeved maternity tops and wear with cardigans until it warms up.</p> <p>ETA: I WAH so getting but wearing lots of lounge pants right now :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361683 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:35:33 +0000 Beebug 1361683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. So annoying! (but very happy to have this problem!) Currently pregnant in completely different timing, and thinking I could get away with not buying a preggo winter coat? Yah, not going to happen! I had no mat pants, but was okay for tops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-have-to-buy-different-clothes#post-1361676 Mon, 20 Jan 2014 13:34:06 +0000 mrsjyw 1361676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for pregnancies in different seasons?</p> <p>I'll likely be pregnant at diff parts of the year when TTC #2 (I was pregnant mar-nov with ds)...will likely be summer-spring, but should be able to get by with most of my clothing, since it's not opposite seasons! I also bought non-maternity clothes in bigger sizing which worked out well :) </p>
