Which stores in lakewood carry real plus size in maternity? Wearing like 3-4x in the plus size regular stores, so which maternity store carries that?
Or any links online to anything?
Thanks so much

New additions may have. I found that certain brands ran big and or were loose fitting type tops that would fit anyone. . I recommend that you call any place before going, so you don't have unnecessary embarrassment or rejection in public.

For tops for sure and easier to make work with non maternity, but a few staple skirts really would like to fit normally… ill call them and see
If anyone has any other suggestions willing to hear

I was able to make a basic black skirt from sorority work. It has a stretchy elastic waist, and very Aline.
Tops I bought there too, asked them for ones that are looser fitting

When I was pregnant (10+ yrs ago) & about that size I bought a larger size elastic waist skirts from a regular plus size company (Roamanns/lane Bryant type). I was also able to find some maternity blouses from them (they no longer carry any last time I checked). I tried a few frum stores that claimed to have those sizes but they had nothing. I got one outfit for a Simcha at a frum store (not in lkwd) that I wore once because it was so tight & uncomfortable. I also found that swing style tops in regular plus size often worked (in my reg size or one size up).
Anon because I’ve given this advice to people irl.

I’m the same size as you and pregnant too. For tops the ones at the normal maternity stores work great cuz they’re made to stretch so much. For skirts, I find it really hard. The maternity stores have nothing. My only solution has been to buy bigger sizes of elastic skirts. Lastly, dresses from maternity stores work fine - I have taken the lining out from some thought. Also, look up dainty jewels online they have maternity modest and some really nice shabbbos and weekday dresses.
Beshaah Tovah!!

I just did this too. They had a few skirt options that were aline with an elastic that wasn't too tight.
