I lived in Old Navy maternity tank tops. They're the best. For maternity shorts, I really liked the JCP Duo maternity ones I purchased with an underbelly band. I loved, loved my Motherhood Maternity undies. Buy them! They're amazing. I miss them some days.

I had the bare min. 2 pairs of work pants, 1 pair of jeans, 1 pair of yoga pants, 2 dresses, 5 Gap body tanks, 3 ON tees and three cardigans. I did have to buy regular underwear a size up.

I would skip the underwear, and I actually wore dresses more than shorts in the summer so I was good with 2 pairs of shorts: 1 black and 1 tan. I would definetely have several shirt options, at least wtih me last summer I thought they started to get "gross" after wearing them so much so I replaced 1/2 through the summer. I also waited for hte buy 2 get 1 free, ect. deals at Old Navy. I loved their ribbed tank tops better than Motherhood. They didn't stretch out as much after wearing them!

I'll be pregnant throughout the summer and I wasn't planning on buying any shorts. I can't wear them to work, and if I need to be cooler on weekends I'll just wear skirts or dresses. I think one can never have too many tank tops, though- I wear them by themselves around the house and under other things at the office. I've never owned maternity underwear- I got through the first pregnancy fine without any, wasn't planning on buying any this pregnancy.

i managed to get by with 1 pair of long jeans, 1 pair of jeans capri length, about 6 or 7 maternity tops - I did a lot of layering with non maternity stuff - 2 new bras, 2 dresses, 3 skirts, and 2 sweaters.

I had my baby in October so was mostly pregnant in summer clothes (thank god for flip flops!) so a few tanks on top of skirts (some non maternity skirts I already had I could pull down below my belly) - and I would put a cardigan or cropped jacket over.

I don't do shorts, so it was skirts for me! I bough most of my stuff at Old Navy, Macys and Gap.

I had one pair of shorts, two jeans but i only used one, one pair of leggings, two tanks, four tops, one sweater. I had to buy one fancy dress for a wedding that I got online at target.

For work I bought one skirt, one pair of pants, about three work dresses and a sweater top. I wore the skirt and pants with my maternity tees and dressed it up with necklaces and scarves.

I also used some of my pre-pregnancy shirts/dresses/cardigans that were roomy or I would wear the tanks and wore my pre-preg shirts or sweaters unbuttoned. I also just got regular underwear and workout clothes one size up, which I also used postpartum.

For reference, I delivered early November and it hadn't really gotten cold yet, so I mostly wore summer type clothing through the pregnancy.

ETA: I also was a Gap/ON and target maternity shopper.

I would get it all minus the underwear. I didn't need maternity.

@anbanan15: that is cheap!

I would just get cute underwear one size up from Victoria's Secret, so you can wear it PP. I totally still wear my maternity tanks PP, so I think those are musts. The leggings can be worn around the house after birth. The shorts, maybe just 2 pairs? Not sure how hot it gets where you are, but if I was pregnant in Florida in the summer I would have needed some shorts. and then maybe drop the top? Unless it's really cute

Normally I'd say you won't need all of that stuff.... but it's such a good price for a ton of clothes, I'd go for it

i wore pre-preg shorts yesterday with a longer tshirt and just didnt button or zip them and folded down (like i used to do when i was a slutty teenager on the beach)
