Suse's Kindercoat is a great multi use coat. Namely for baby wearing but could be used for Maternity. With an original, deluxe and some variations for different weather/uses with zip in out panels with and with fleece layers, detachable hoods etc. A terrific alternative to Maternity store only for 1 Season coats/jackets. You have the choice of new or like new to meet most budgets. Before, after, back wearing, front wearing, I think they thought of it all! I also like that they have a version for men though I think the coat as is fine for either sex. I love the versatility of it. I can even use it for just me after I don't need it for baby wearing. You can machine wash carefully, but no dryer or fabric softener, stain remover products etc. I highly recommend this! http://www.suseskinder.com/
