    Okay Ladies, I need HELP!! I've been looking for CUTE spring maternity dresses - that are reasonably priced. NOT the moo-moo dresses I've found at like Motherhood Maternity (online, not in store) and other places... Sure, I've found a couple of REALLY CUTE ones, but the price tage is somewhere in the range of $200.....

    DH and I are going on a babymoon trip, and I want something cute, stylish and sexy to wear. I"m only going to be wearing it once, maybe twice.... Something that 'accentuats' my pregnant belly rather than trying to hide it. Something that defines my bust line rather than one long piece of fabric from my neck to my knees......


    C'mon ladies SOMEONE has got to know where I can find a reasonably priced, cute, stylish dress.....

    I found some really cute ones at Motherhood Maternity, but they were in the store. They had a lot that were not moo-moo dresses. I bought a great one for an interview (of course, I didn't really want to accentuate the belly for that, but the dress did anyway, and it had a great bust line. They had a lot of other ones I would have bought if I had the occasion to wear them. You might also want to check out Old Navy Maternity and Gap. I know they have other online maternity stores too but I can't remember the names of them right now. Good luck.

    I was huge pregnant and still found some cute and cheap maternity dresses at Kohl's. You might try there if you have one.

    You should try Target. They have maternity as well as plus sizes. I got some cute dresses there. As long as they are high waisted and you aren't too far along they should work.

    I wore regular dresses up until this week (I developed pre-e and swelled up like a puffer fish <_< ). Mini trapeze dresses etc. are stylish, cute, and you can get them in any price range. Some of my favorites came from "Forever 21", I have some from Nordstrom etc. They look cute with flats or heels :) .

    I bought all of my maternity clothes from Motherhood, and they were very reasonable.

    i just wanted to add to this that H&M baby clothes are amazing!!! i just told my mother last week that the minute i give birth she is to hustle on over to H&M (across the street from my hospital conveniently enough) and buy out the entire layette section. i have stuff put away from H&M that is still in great condition after both my son and daughter used them!!!

    I was looking for somethings similar. A little more boutiquey and stylish. Try these. Have fun!

    Olian looks like a cute brand if you can find it.

    Here is a fun LA Pregnancy Hip site.

    i also had great luck with bellablue maternity. i tend to only wear skirts (best look for my thighs :)) that are longish and they are the only site i found that had good options. good luck finding a dress! i know it's frustrating.

    you could also try getting a non-maternity dress from a company such as hardtail. i live in their skirts. they may be a bit pricey though but check them out. i think they sell at nordstroms.

    I second Old Navy. Their selection this year on line is pretty cute - I couldn't decide between them. Plus I have a really cute pink paisley sundress that I got from there during my last pregnancy. It is sooooo comfortable.

    I was just at Old Navy today and they have a couple really cute sundresses! I personally found some cute ones at the Motherhood store. Plus, there's still so many high-waisted things right now that I even wore a non-maternity dress to my shower. Good luck!

    old navy is my favorite maternity place . . . found a really cute black dress (sleeveless) on clearance for $15! I wore it to a wedding and now passed it on for my sil to wear--depends on what you're looking for. I have looked at the Ann Taylor Loft line designed for working pregnant women and I Love their non-maternity clothes. I'm sure it'd be great quality, etc. Good luck!
