I bought my first actual maternity clothes in the past few days. I went to Goodwill the other day to try to find some work pants, but they had next to nothing maternity-wise, so I just got some jeans so I have something to wear on my days off (since the only pants I had that fit me before then were my one pair of work pants and my pj's).
