Favorite Finds: Maternity Products
We’re officially in the third trimester, and only 9 weeks away from meeting our baby girl. I feel really lucky to be feeling so great still, and love the constant reminder of our girl with her constant kicks, punches and movements. I find myself holding my stomach through most of my daily zoom calls for work as it’s just a comforting feeling.
I’m not sure how long this blissful feeling will last as I’m getting larger by the day, but there are certainly some products I’ve found to make pregnancy more enjoyable. See below for my favorites!
Madewell Maternity Jeans
I ordered quite a few pairs of maternity jeans before finding these and absolutely loving them. I’m not sure why I didn’t try madewell sooner as they are my favorite non-pregnancy jeans, but better late than never! Personally, I wasn’t a fan of the over the stomach jeans as they felt super constricting. These are stretchy, comfortable, and I feel like a real human when I wear them — which is very important!
Exfoliating Scrub
Absolutely obsessed with this exfoliating scrub, which I’ve been incorporating into my shower routine about 1x a week after dry brushing. I barely need moisturizer after the shower because this leaves my skin so hydrated.
Perelel Prenatal
I’ve absolutely loved Perelel’s prenatals, which are completely customized by trimester. The 1st trimester included 1 B6 + Ginger Capsule for Anti-Nausea Support while the 3rd trimester has a Calcium Magnesium Blend to help with muscle cramps & relaxation!
Hatch x Target Clothing Collab
I was so excited when I learned about the Hatch x Target collection which launched in February. As you may know, Hatch is a favorite maternity brand among most of the celebs - including Meghan Markle! So, when I heard they were coming out with a budget friendly line with Target, I bought a few of their pieces, including this pink floral dress and pink overalls. Can’t wait to see what pieces they come out with next!
Comfortable Pajamas
My hubby gifted me these comfortable pajamas for Valentine’s Day this year, and they are the best! I’m a super hot sleeper, and these silky PJs keep me cool and comfortable all night long.
Body Oil
I’ve been using this body oil after every single shower and I love how it leaves my skin feeling silky smooth and completely moisturized. It also smells amazing!
Lotion
Love the Burt’s Bees Mama Bee Belly Butter! I lather this on my growing belly daily and love how nourishing it is (and inexpensive!)
Asos Maternity Clothing
I only bought a handful of maternity clothes, but this comfy and adorable green dress was one of them (and it’s only $20!) I found Asos to have such incredible maternity options at a wonderful price. I also love this black jumpsuit!
Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is key during pregnancy, so I always have a water bottle within arms reach. I love these W&P water bottles and plan on bringing with me to the hospital for delivery!
Prenatal Workouts
Throughout my entire pregnancy, I’ve been loving Obe’s prenatal workouts, mostly sculpt with Michelle B. and Katherine A. They’re challenging, yet achievable. For many of the classes, Michelle B. is pregnant herself which is really fun.
Pregnancy Journal
I bought this Pregnancy Journal on Etsy after making it through the first trimester. It’s been really fun to write down weekly updates, include bump photos, and document our thoughts and feelings during this super special time.
Heating Pad
Love this heating pad filled with organic buckwheat kernels, this natural heating pad is restorative and so easy to use. Can be used as a heating or cooling pad, and I’m planning to bring this in my hospital bag!
