A problem that would occur is how much money you are willing to spend on maternity clothes. This is because it is only worn for a short period of time. Not every body is like Angelina Jolie or Katie Holmes that can sport designer clothes during pregnancy and then just stuff it back in the closet like it wasn’t that expensive.

2.  Keyword: Stretch. Buy clothes that can stretch. These clothes would be made up of 4-10% elastin or spandex. This would ensure that the clothes will expand while you do.

4. Buy dresses that would flow down to your knees or lower. This is because the hem will rise when your belly gets bigger.
5. Buy more tops than bottoms. Mix and match the different tops with the bottom.
6. When trying the maternity clothes, feel how it wraps around you tummy and if the breast are comfortable.
7. Buy only two to three bras because the breasts tend to grow bigger after pregnancy.
8. Splurge on only one outfit. This one outfit can be used during special occasions when pregnant.

It is recommended that solids are preferred over stripes and prints during pregnancy. This is because stripes and prints emphasize how large you are.
