 For all you moms that are so gifted in the frugal and budgeting dept. I am preg with kiddo #3 and I had to stop working because my DH and I are afraid that I will hurt either myself or the baby, because with this preg I have started passing out for no reason in public (so weird). So I stay home with the other 2 kids (on fall break). But because of our income change and my growing belly we cant afford to get me any preg clothes or anything. Im a big girl as it is but now with this belly I am beyond. Ive gone to thift stores, yard sales, craigslist, and other free groups and nothing my size. I dont have alot of friends anymore since I have kids and they are still partying.

So my question is what do I do?? help me find clothes to fit my growing belly, and how to start finding ways to save in other ways to be able to afford to get clothes.

My biggest help was meeting other moms in my area and borrowing clothes from them for me and my kids.  I also get together with others to do coupon swaps and go over stratagies for good sales. 

Plan your trip to the store around the coupons in the paper.

buy smaller to get more out of your coupons

good luck

I know it is tough finding friends is there a cafe mom group in your area? 

Another big help is letting people know you coupon, I have a lot of neighbors that save their Sunday papers for me.
