At the time of writing, I'm 27 weeks pregnant with my second child, and my approach to maternity dressing has changed massively. Despite similar due dates (both May/June babies), when I was pregnant with my daughter I was adamant I wouldn't go near a maternity brand, which I'll admit I considered a bit naff.
Instead, I stretched my knitted dresses to their limits through the colder months—some of which never quite pinged back—and sought out floaty dresses in summer, all to sidestep the stereotypically un-chic maternity outfits I had in my mind.
