Maternity Wardrobe Guide – The Must-have’s

The Maternity Wardrobe Must-have’s are items that no pregnant women should be without.  Most are items that you would have in your normal wardrobe only they have certain design features that make them suitable for pregnancy.

1.  Designer denim – Perhaps the most important is a good pair of designer jeans.  Most of the popular designer denim brands like J Brand, Citizens of Humanity, Paige and my current favorite DL1961 have maternity styles now.  You can expect the same perfect fit that you get from non-maternity designer denim only with adjustments like a low front rise or adjustable band at the waist.  Try a number of styles and brands to find the right fit for you.  Also remember the lighter the wash the more casual the jean will look so you will likely get more wear out of a darker wash because you can wear them for day and night.

2.  Bellaband – Perhaps the best pregnancy invention ever, the Bellaband allows you to get more wear out of your pre-pregnancy jeans and trousers and can also be used throughout pregnancy to keep your bottoms in place and after pregnancy when you are getting back into your old wardrobe.  I have also used mine as a boob tube under tops that are too low.

3.  Feel good top – Every maternity wardrobe needs a few good tops that are neither too tight or loose.  They can be trendy or classic but they must fit well.

4.  Perfect-fit Trousers – A great fitting trouser will take you from day to night depending on what you wear with them.  They should have some stretch in them and be slighted fitted.

Hands down the best maternity invention ever and a must-have for the awkward stage of pregnancy.  The Bellaband is a simple piece of stretch fabric that will allow you to get a bit more wear out of your non-pregnancy clothes.  Unbutton the top button of your trousers or jeans and cover with the Bellaband.  It magically keeps your bottoms up and smoothes out the waist so no one is the wiser.
