Queen Bee helps you chart a path through the maternity wear shoppingmaze.

There comes a time in every girl's life when she realises she's made theleap into the next generation. For me, it's definitely happening rightnow. I have to say, wow, what a year! So many of my friends are in theirfirst pregnancy, or pregnant with their second, third, and even fourthchild. Now, even more than when I had my first child a couple of yearsago, I'm completely surrounded by babies, children and pregnant women.Somewhere along the way, I've well and truly become a card-carryingmember of the 'parent' generation.

The thing which really caught me by surprise as I approached motherhoodwas how much new stuff there was to learn. Especially with shopping. Ithink we all work out pretty quickly where we like to shop for this, orfor that, and what our favourite brands are.

Then I got pregnant and entered a whole new world. None of the old rulesseemed to apply. I had new needs, and they weren't necessarily being metat my normal shops. A big part of this is because when you're pregnantor breastfeeding, you're suddenly in a market 'niche'. A pregnant womanis part of a market minority, which not every shop caters for. Afterall, the buyers at most big stores aren't deciding which tops to stockbased on whether they'll work with breast pads. When I realised this, Iknew I had to adapt, and learn to find my way through the shoppingjungle all over again.

Whether this is your first foray into parenthood, or you've experiencedpregnancy a few times before, you'll surely agree that it's a minefieldshopping for comfortable and fashionable maternity clothes, particularlyones which will double for use after your pregnancy while you arebreastfeeding.
