I am 27 weeks pregnant and a size 22/24 dress size and am having no luck finding maternity clothes that are larger than a size 20! Does anyone know of anywhere that stocks these sizes?
There was a short story on Discovery Health a while ago about 2 women who started a maternity clothes catalogue for larger women, but for the life of me I can't find the name of it anywhere?
If you can help please do!!
Thanks, Weebaby1.

I have the same problem as you. I am at the end of my pregnancy now and could find nothing in terms of maternity clothes for me. I coped by buying bigger sizes than mine. I am a 22/24 and I bought 26. At Verbaudet catalogue though, I found a couple of t-shirts (nursing ones) that were 22/24. They did fit me. I hope you have more luck than I did.

I am 24 weeks pregnant and a size 20 and carrying very much up front. I find that buying maternity clothes make me look larger than ever and generally I have been buying a size 28 which gives me plenty of room. Precious cargo do a selected range of larger sizes to 28 maternity but at a premium of 15% on normal price. The clothes are made to order to your measurements and items once ordered cannot be returned if unsuitable.

Hi all I also have the same problem my normal size is 22 but I worry about where I am going to get my clothes from. The only solution I have is that if you have a local market and a stall that does bigger sizes try them I had too last pregnancy.
