Where can I buy pregnant cloth?

Post by Happier » Fri Jul 20, 2007 9:13 pm

Hello,

I hope to buy pregnant cloth, but I do not know which shops sell it. Could you please tell me some shops in Helsinki, Espoo, Riihimäki or Hyvinkää.

Thanks!

You mean clothes for mums-to-be?

The chain stores like H&M and Lindex etc have a small selction of clothes for pregnant ladies.

But if you look around you can probably find plenty of "regular" clothes that you can wear even when you are VERY pregnant. The only "pregnant" clothes I bought were a couple of smart suits for the office because I had to dress up like an accountant daytime. Otherwise I used normal clothes, a bit bigger than usual.

Quite often the same places that sell baby stuff have also maternity clothes. Search for "äitiysvaatteet" from yellow pages.

A link for maternity stores, some only online.

Stockmann's has some maternity stuff. Bebe is a small store on the topmost floor in Forum (it's outside, opposite the BR Toys), in Helsinki. I think Lastentarvike has also, but I'm not totally sure about that. The Missy Mom store is also in Helsinki, at Näyttelijäntie 24, although they have also an online shop.
