I've done most of my shopping at Kohl's for maternity clothing. They don't always have a huge supply of clothes, but if they don't have it in your size/color, you can order it in store and ship to your house without paying any shipping costs.

Their clothes are so comfortable too and affordable, especially if you get the coupons for 15-30% off.

Which Kohl's have maternity? I've been to two, and neither had a maternity section. Kohls would be great because it's inexpensive but the stuff there isn't "cheap."

I hate everything about it. I loathe shopping for it. I hate all of the clothes, nothing fits me right, the jeans fall off, the shirts balloon on the top, the list goes on. Two tank tops from the Gap maternity are the only things I actually like.

I agree and everything is so expensive. I have maternity pants from Motherhood Maternity and Gap, and most of my tops are just size XL in the women's section.

It stinks. I pretty much bought everything online also.

Where are you? There is a Destination Maternity on Old Country Road and Glen Cove Road in Garden City.

every kohls i've ever been to has maternity! it's usually squeezed in next to the kids dept or by petites... although i find they don't stock too much.

online clothing shopping Stinks!

I despise it too. I've given up more or less on most things. Unless I need something specific, I just buy regular clothes that would suit my pregnant self in a bigger size

Re: I HATE maternity clothes shopping !!!!

not only that, but since when does anyone want to wear vertical stripes, let alone when pregnant???

or, a pattern that looks like a spotted black and white cow?

and so many items are in purple! *****??

it's amazing to me....it's almost like they punish you for being pregnant.

hideous, hideous, hideous

Re: I HATE maternity clothes shopping !!!!

Ita! I hate buying something online just to get it in the mail and see how cheap the material is! And not for nothing these clothes (and shipping costs) are not cheap!

i dunno but i went to destination maternity in manhasset and had such a positive experience. the things in the motherhood part were inexpensive and so cute. i felt so much better in clothes geared for preggos rather than in larger sized regular stuff. and also, if you go on their website right now theyre having a huge sale.

I never got that either. Any stripped shirts they sell are always always horizontal!!! Vertical actually makes you look slimmer. It makes absolutely no sense!!!

I have ordered from gap.com and destination maternity online store and both let you return items to regular stores if you want. I liked all the stuff so I didn't have to but I really liked having the option to do that anyway.

destination maternity



I agree. I went to one of their other locations with a family member who was 19w at the time and she had a great experience at destination maternity. they even had fake bellies in the dressing rooms so she could see what she would look like as she got bigger. Chat Icon they were having great sales and seemed to have a lot of options. she ended up buying like 12 different things! (And I was only 6w at the time but had fun trying on the fake belly)

I'm having a hard time finding a cute dress fo rmy shower. I find some maternity clothes make you look bgiger than you are. I like the fitted ones, but they don't make very many.

With Kohls online - they always have free shipping if you spend a certain amount ( i think its $75) - keep adding things even if you dont want them to get the free shipping. Anything you dont want then return at the store.

They have alot more online maternity than they do in store. Its usually just 2 racks
