Pregnancy Stuff

Pregnancy Stuff

Clothes - Overall I found maternity clothes to not be the greatest quality but Gap Maternity (online is much cheaper) was good for workout (Gapfit) and lounge wear (Purebody) and Thyme was decent for work clothes (especially Stork & Babe).  Jessica Simpson is good too. Macy's in the US has a great selection online if you have the chance to order to a US address.  It's good to keep in mind you will be wearing maternity clothes even after you give birth for a few weeks...so chose tops that are good for nursing (button down, stretchy).  I underestimated the need for nursing clothes!

Try pants on before buying...some people like under bump pants...some like over bump pants.  I much preferred over bump personally, especially for sitting at a desk all day.

Bras - I would recommend buying nursing bras even during pregnancy.  They are comfy and you will need a bigger size right away anyway.  It's recommended to get bras without an underwire for best milk production.  Nursing tanks are also good for pregnancy/nursing.  My favourite bras are by Bravado.

Feet - Buy good slippers for the house!  The extra weight hurt my feet
Pregnancy Pillow - Get one if you can't sleep
