    Loved:

    Pumpkin Patch maternity tees
    Target stretchy pants & linen skirt
    Diana Ferrari slip on sandals

    Disliked:

    My bf pillow a gf gave to me. I was too hard & too small to fit around my waist.....I used it to 'prop' up DD when she was older (actually don't know where it is now)
    A list of things to take to hospital also given to me by the same gf who gave me the bf pillow. Many things I bought I never used

    Loved my pair of sensible shoes that a friend made me buy from the Nanna Shoe Shop. I lived in them all pregnancy even if they were a bit daggy. Worth. Every. Cent. Seriously!

    Hated maternity jeans over the belly - yuck!

    I have Up the Duff. It wasn't too bad for the early weeks, but once you got to the important stuff it wasn't much help and quite patronizing really! I was flabbergasted at the birth story too!

    Yep, Belly Belly definitely comes under The Best heading too!
    And loose, non-maternity tops (thanks KMart).
    And Trade Secret for cheap maternity clothes that aren't appallingly daggy.
