Maybe $150. I stretched a lot of my wardrobe, bought a couple of cheap dresses from Target and also shopped on thredUP for some more corporate work pieces.

First pregnancy probably $100 or less. This pregnancy I got a couple pairs of jeans, denim shorts, a dress, a skirt, and a bunch of tops. About $250? I think I'm about done buying.

Maybe about $500 or $600? I didn't exactly add it up. But it was so tempting to buy clothes when for the first time in my adult life I loved the way clothes looked on me and I could walk into a maternity store knowing stuff would fit. I'm borderline plus/regular sizing so it can be stressful shopping when I'm not sure if I'll fit into largest size at a regularly sized store. Maternity clothes all fit and looked great. I miss that :(.

I've probably spent over )"$1000 on both pregnancies! Opposite seasons plus needing to dress up for work! I'm almost embarassed but I really like clothes

@fuzzypeaches: I'm with you on that. Somehow, I like my maternity clothes better than my regular clothes.

I bought 2 pairs of jeans, a handful of tops, a dress, and 2 pairs of yoga pants. I probably ended up spending about $200, but with the exception of the jeans (the panel wore out) I should be able to use them all again for #2. Oh, and a year later I am still in maternity tops

Probably around $150. And a lot of the tops (long tanks) and at least one pair of yoga pants I still wear around the house. Unfortunately, I donated most of it after he was born, because we were fairly sure we were one and done and I didn't want to hold onto the clothes "just in case". So now I'm pregnant again, of course, and WOH, so I need some nicer, business casual sort of clothes. I guess it wouldn't have mattered much anyway, since I'm due in a different season, but still, I wish I at least had the jeans.
I didn't like the belly bands at all, and I like clothes fairly fitted (especially pregnant--I want to show off the bump!) I was so much more comfortable in maternity pants!

BTW: swap.com sells used maternity clothes. I just ordered a decent amount of clothes for $108. (4 pairs of Gap jeans, 2 pairs of dress pants, 2 skirts, 3 cardigans and 4 blouses). And you can checkout with your Amazon account. I bought a big lot of clothes for E through here a few months ago, and was very happy with it.
