    TBH whether it was my last pg or not I wouldn't spend $90 on one top, I don't even spend that when I am not pg I would be more likely to keep looking and find something else and it might mean that you can find a pair of pants and a top for the same price. If you don't think you will wear it much afterards either I definitely would keep looking, I wore heaps of clothes while pg that weren't pg tops, just normal tops that were a few sizes bigger than I would normally wear! Meant I didn't have to buy up alot of maternity clothes that tend to be notoriously excy. Good luck!!

    Wow - the only pregancy clothes I bought for my first (expecting others at some point) was one pair of mat. jeans! I wore a lot of loose-fitting clothes instead. OK, they became tight-fitting but looked fab. And I can still wear them. Can you borrow some things from your local chums?

    I recently bought a fairly loose ruffly blouse for £8, so the bargains are out there if you look outside of maternity.

    Personally I would look for a good top that will be able to be worn as a bf top later as you will get much more wear out of it.

    Personally I would be tempted, but would shop around a bit more first. I regret not getting a very nice maternity dress with my first pregnancy for a wedding (it was designed to be wearable when not pregnant as well).

    Just a tip, check out places like Autograph, a lot of their styling works well with pregnancy and they go down to a size 14 now (sorry don't know how big or small you are, so please don't take offence). Last pregnancy I picked up all my "maternity" clothes from there and even found some tops on special for $5 each. Ok, they were not going out tops, but a nice enough for everyday to get me through the pregnancy.

    I would if you have the money spare, you can always sell it after your pregnancy to recoup some of the cost.

    Personally I'd get it IF you can spare the money, and if it is your last pg why not celebrate the fact with a nice top? You can always sell it on ebay for half the cost maybe, or you can say it hasn't been worn!!! lol. Why not keep the tag, don't wash the top (so no drooling or spilling stuff on it) and maybe you'll get most of the money back! hehehehehe. Bad Beata, bad bad Beata! lol
