    Hello,

    can anyone recommend some shops for maternity underwear that does not cost the earth and is not butt ugly. Do not want plain black and white – where can I get some nice bras and knickers that look nice and do not cost a fortune. Need maternity, wirefree and in pretty large sizes due to the massive increase since i became pregnant.

    any ideas most welcome, thank you

    figleaves.com have sale on at the moment.Best range around. Love Hotmilk brand but a bit dear.
    Onceborn.ie good for maternity stuff, but has some underwear. Rapid delivery.
    Both have great returns policy etc
    Babame (first exit for Newry, take Forkhill road at roundabout ie go left. It is on the left within a couple of hundred yards beside Little Rascals, opposite Golf Club) have a clothes section upstairs

    Boobdesign.com also do nice maternity & nursing clothes if scouting the internet, but not much in the undie line yet.

    Hope some help!!

    You are more adventurous than me. I just always buy granny underwear in Pennys and chuck them once baby is born.

    BabaMe in Newry has a pretty decent selection at their shop in Newry and can be viewed online.

    I’ve been looking for some maternity underwear myself, been looking in the shops but not great selection in bigger sizes so got in touch with Babame and they kindly offered to good to come to the Mumstown event today in the Marshes.

    I got measured and nearly collapsed when I was told my size….knew they’d got bigger in past 3 months but going up 3 sizes is just ridiculous!!

    Got some lovely Hot Milk bras from Babame to take home and give a try, hope they’re as comfy and supportive as everyone says they are. will let ye know how I get on…..

    Yep, we were ‘trying’ to keep it quiet but me looking pale, wearing flat shoes and sporting a little bump Tuesday at the Drogheda event gave it away….and when some mums asked me out straight if we are expecting, I caved and said yes.

    Very excited but also, very nervous too. After our miscarriage last year, we are just taking each day as it comes. Have our scan next week and fingers, toes and everything else crossed, all will be ok.

    Had been feeling quite tired and sick but that is thankfully easing off now as am heading into second trimester 😀
