Seriously guys the question really should be why wouldn’t you want to buy maternity clothes?

The 9 months you are pregnant is going to be like nothing else you have experienced, it’s enough to cope with feeling shocking some days without looking like it too!! I know shopping can be crazy bad even when you;re not pregnant, but if you wear clothes that weren’t designed to be worn during pregnancy they will either just make you look bigger than you are, they won’t feel comfortable which in turn makes you feel rubbish.

Our maternity tops are really reasonably priced, they will last through your entire pregnancy and beyond, they wash really well (thats because we make them from fantastic thick quality cotton), and they are extra long so when you get to 9 months or more (hey some people like myself go over due) your bump won’t be hanging out like a builders bump. Even if you buy and wear it to death over the 9 months you will feelgood in it.

All our maternity shirts have side ruching which basically means they have elastic sewn into the sides along with gathered fabric, so as your bump grows there is fabric there to cover it and not pull tight and be uncomfortable.

Treat yourself to one of our funky maternity tops and totally treat yourself.

 We’ve been saying we are opening soon for about 2 months now, but honestly this time we really are!! There is just so much that goes into getting a webstore open, all the back end organisation is crazy, and what you think will take 5 minutes drags onto about 3 days. I’m not joking i’ve (Liz) developed a twitchy eye with the stress of it all, and it’s driving me crazy!! The more i think about it the worse it gets, people think i’m coming onto them now because i’m can’t help winking !! ha ha.

Just have to iron out a few things with the site ie providing returns address and telephone number etc, and getting the FAQ’s together and then we should be ready. So hopefully we are looking at this week

It started with a top…… thats all 1 top, and it mushroomed from there.

I had a crazy idea of starting my own internet store back in 2005, basically buying wholesale and selling other peoples labels. One problem i thought all the clothes sucked and they were hideously over priced….thats 2 problems!!

Anyways one day i travelled from Bristol up to London to see some maternity collections from a smaller retailer and was so cheesed off and dissapointed with the rubbish i saw. The owner patronised me on how customers will pay £65 for a maternity top even though it was made out of viscose (cheaper to produce than 100% cotton) and how maternity fashions are always at least a year behind current catwalk shows….what the …

It made me abit angry, it was like in dirty dancing where the holiday camp owner talks down to Johnny and belittles him (not that i’m running a holiday camp, or i’m johnny!!) , kinda you don’t know anything, just shut up and buy. Needless to say i didn’t place an order.

So i thought no way do i want to sell maternity clothes and breastfeeding tops i am not confident in, or that i don’t like, so i took a GAINT step and thought i’d make my own, well not literally because believe you me if it was me sewing the tees they wouldn’t last long ha ha ha. So it has taken roughly 3 years to go from idea to mamafeelsgood.com.

There’s been loads of ups and downs, mets lots of lovely people along the way and i can honestly say i am super glad i’ve done it. I’ve learnt so many things, and my main philosophy has been don’t compromise. We don’t make our tees from the cheaper fabrics ie viscose, polyester, and we don’t compromise on the weight of the cotton used; ours are all thick good quality, lasting cotton tees. We want to get involved with our customers and build a really good relation with them. We are here to help not to fleece you and run!!

Anyways sorry for the babble, thats just a little about us :)  liz & Matt Jeans…Owners Mama Feelsgood
