As I said, if you are selling "maternity" shirts, there is no size difference. You can't simply buy a large regular shirt and call it a small in maternity, that's not how it works. If you wear a small, then you are a small even when you are 9 months pregant -- because you are buying maternity clothing that is designed to accomodate a pregnancy.
Maternity clothes are not simply larger sizes than their counterparts. If a pregnant woman wants to buy a large size shirt when she is normally a small, she can already do that. Most won't because a large shirt on a small pregnant woman looks absolutely sloppy and wrong.
If you are ordering maternity items, you do NOT want to assume that everyone is a large and extra large just because they are pregnant. If someone was a small before, they will most likely STILL be a small.
