struggling with maternity clothes

PixelTreasure86

So... I'm a UK size 16 and weigh 17st 1lb at 27weeks pregnant. I'm mostly in size 16s still although some trousers I've gone up to the 18 for comfort. My problem is I've got no money (unemployed for the summer as a supply teacher) and my bump is growing quickly, plus very few shops stock maternity clothes in store its mostly online. So I decided to alter a dress that never fit me into a maternity skirt. I love it!
