Maternity Wear Buying GuideTuesday, 6 November 2012 | Admin First of all congratulations are in order! You are� now embarking� on a very exciting new cycle of your life, we hope we can help you with some of the small hurdles you need to jump by giving you a few pointers. Buying maternity need not� be� complicated, but we know from experience your ever changing shape leads to confusion, what do I buy ?� what will I fit�� in a few months? and when� should i start buying your maternity wear?� Well don't worry as we aim to answer all those questions and more. You have just fallen pregnant your clothes still fit but your boobs seem to have expanded uncontrollably, don't worry - most women grow at the beginning of their pregnancy but normally things start settling down around 16 weeks. A�maternity bra is a must as soon as you can, if you want to be a savvy mummy then we would recommend a bravado� seamless, which goes up to a 40F� This bra not only grows with you as it has memory but it also shrinks back to normal size, plus it has nursing clips so the chances are you can use it after you have given birth and therefore save loads of money ;) Another money saving tip� from� bravado is they also provide a conversion kit so once you have finished with it as a nursing bra then you can convert back to a normal bra - genius! If you want something a little more glamorous� then you can't go wrong with any of the Amoralia or Hot milk bras. Both have double the back fasteners of a normal bra so when your rib cage expands in preparation for the baby so does your bra, they also look pretty which is an added bonus of course. If you are used to an underwire and feel you really need that extra support then the Anita underwire is fabulous, tested and recommended by doctors it's a soft underwire so completely safe and goes upto an H cup. Ok so your 14 weeks pregnant and trousers are beginning to get tight, you are� probably checking out your tummy most days in the mirror ( yes we all do� it here!)� don't put off the inevitable, remember the earlier you buy the better value for money you will get from your maternity wear. Good quality maternity wear will look fab on you even if your tummy is nearly flat, it is designed to grow with you. So don't put it off go and buy some and get as much wear from it as you can. What size do I buy ? What do I need ? Talking about Jeans, if there is one investment you should make it's in good quality maternity jeans, they need to stay up and look good up until and beyond the pregnancy, it's well worth paying a little more for well cut ones. We love the Noppies maternity jeans, they are not cheap but if you can afford it then well worth it . The back is cut high so when you bend down you not feel like your about to lose your trousers. Once you have your basics sorted then please invest in something that will make you feel good, a pretty�dress or top� - yes it may seem extravagant, it will seem extravagant but trust us, there maybe days when your hormones get the better of you and don't feel on top of the world. It may seem shallow but putting a pretty dress on can make all the difference, it's hard coming to terms with new shape and this will help - we promise. Over the years we have had hundreds of husbands in our shops in a panic, they have left their loved ones at home in tears with nothing to wear, don't let it get to that stage!
Lastly a nice pair of comfortable pyjamas, all our maternity pyjamas you can use for nursing as well....... If you ever� need any maternity wear advice then we are always able to chat - or always free to email with questions at sales@mummyandlittleme.net �
