Having just had a baby three months ago, I know oh so well the need to be comfy during pregnancy--especially when you sleep. Forget about getting up to pee every 20 minutes, there's also the issue of sleeping on your back or your side (I…
There are very few things that would make me miss being pregnant. But the gorgeous fall collection from genius fashion designer Isabella Oliver actually has me wishing I could wear maternity clothes again. I ogled the uber-chic maternity…
In honor of National Breastfeeding Week, we've asked our contributors to share their favorite nursing picks. This panicky feeling hits you when you realize you're still nursing, you're going back to work, and your entire wardrobe is in s…
In honor of World Breastfeeding Week, we've asked our contributors to share their favorite nursing picks. When it comes to nursing, I'm an anywhere, anytime kind of gal. In grocery stores, while talking on the phone, while walking with b…
When I was six months pregnant with my second baby, the company I worked for was putting on a big, fancy shindig. Said shindig required me to go on a stage and speak in front of 800 people. I started to stress--mostly about what to wear.…
There have been many times during my pregnancy that I've been tempted to leave the house naked. Not to flaunt my maternal form, but rather because wearing clothing during pregnancy can be so darn uncomfortable. Sure maternity jeans are f…
Pregnancy presents some interesting sartorial challenges. Wearing a bra can feel torturous, but keeping the girls supported is a necessity. Covering the belly can feel oppressive, but not keeping it sheathed is out of the question. So wh…
Even though I'm still breastfeeding my six-month old every few hours, I somehow forget that little fact when I go shopping and want to buy all these adorable sundresses for myself. Lifting my dress up over my head every time the baby nee…
At 38 weeks pregnant, I can honestly say I feel about as unsexy as a sack of potatoes. But just like putting a smile on your face is supposed to make you feel happier, wearing sexy lingerie should do the same thing, right? That was my mi…
While my belly has been massively expanding over the last eight months, my wardrobe hasn't. My pregnancy dressing tactic has been to buy a few key maternity pieces and then fudge the rest with my regular threads. Fake it 'til you make, i…
I'm in the final stretch of my third trimester and no matter what I put on, I have a tendency to feel like, well, someone who's eight months pregnant. So when I spotted a recent pic a of a pregnant celeb with a multi-hued scarf from new …
When I heard that Boden , my favorite clothing company from across the pond was launching maternity, I felt like doing cartwheels. But, being seven months pregnant, I opted for a fist pump instead. Not only am I fan of Boden's women's co…
I only had one pregnancy that required winter clothes and boy, was that a challenge. Pants never seemed to fit me and sweaters always made me hot , so I found myself wearing the same few outfits over and over again. Too bad I didn't have…
I spend almost all of my breastfeeding hours in Glamour Mom nursing tanks and I have the credit card bills to show it. But with their new private sales member club you can now score between 30-70% off these awesome breastfeeding tops. If…
I have discovered maternity top nirvana. Nirvana, I tell you. And I'm pretty sure I will not be taking this thing off until I have my baby. Finally, I'm spared the thousand daily tug-downs of a too-small top. Finally, the underside of my…
As a long time breastfeeding mom, I tend to just pop on a nursing tank under a regular shirt and go on my merry nursing way. But that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the value of a great nursing top, particularly when I'm out in public o…
I admit that I'm a sucker for a fancy pair of jeans, mostly because I've found over the years that they just wear and fit better. And after almost four kids on an already hard to fit body, those things are really hard to find at budget p…
I know none of us cared what we looked like during the moments our babies were born. The health of baby and mama were the most important things in the universe, and there was very little room for vanity. But when I think back to all the …
I'm loathe to buy any new maternity clothes in the middle of my 3rd trimester, but it's also the point in my pregnancy where all my favorite items start to get a little tight - except for my one all-time favorite piece, my trusty BumpSty…
When I got word that online boutique Shabby Apple is now promoting their dresses for women, I have to be honest, I was a bit skeptical. I like some but not all of their little girls' dresses, and on top of that, mail order clothes + chea…
We, like everyone else in the world, have long been fans of Bravado! bras and their well-priced, comfortable nursing bras. But with the launch of their new Bliss Maternity Bra , I think they definitely upped the ante. I'm a huge fan of s…
The good old over the shoulder boulder holder is turning a whopping 100 today, and to thank her (is it a she? he? it?) for her amazing support (ahem) throughout the years, we thought it would be fun to round up a few of our favorite nurs…
Back when I was pregnant with my kids (you know, back when dinosaurs roamed the earth), "nursing dress" was synonymous with "giant chest flaps on something shapeless and ugly." Sad but true. So you'll have to pardon me for feeling like y…
Considering I have nursed for a total of 53 months since 2004 (yes, I counted), I have learned a few things about breastfeeding; one of which is that a good nursing bra is definitely worth the money. Now these days, "good nursing bra" is…
