Anyone else confused by the new maternity wear?

Post by Rhonda »

I’m not looking forward to the new uniform. I’m pregnant and in my 2nd trimester, and I asked Royal Mail about the new maternity wear, they’ve now put it up to order and I’m in shock. I guess it’s now office wear. (this is even a step down from the 1 pocket old maternity cargo shorts) do pregnant people not need pockets? :hmmmm
Is there anywhere I can contact to try and get them to sort this out?

You can still order the old uniform
Order as many as you can and just wear them
Tell them nothing else fits

I understand that, but they only have 1 pocket compared to the 5 the standard trousers/shorts have
I ordered shorts on the 9th of may and still waiting for them to be sent out (old uniform)
