Many clothing retailers now offer maternity lines, both in-store and online. You can also find specialty maternity stores and consignment shops that sell gently used maternity clothes. Additionally, there are rental services that allow you to rent maternity clothes for a limited time.

Maternity clothes come in all shapes and styles, but some essential items include maternity jeans or pants, leggings, and comfortable tops that accommodate your growing belly. You may also want to invest in a maternity bra and a few dresses for special occasions.

Most maternity clothes are designed to fit throughout your entire pregnancy, so you should buy the same size you wore before pregnancy. However, it's always a good idea to check the sizing chart for each brand before making a purchase.

It's possible to wear some of your regular clothes during pregnancy, especially loose-fitting tops and dresses. However, you will likely need to purchase maternity clothes at some point to accommodate your growing belly and changing body shape.
