Have you just found out you are expecting? Congratulations on the best news! You are now going to wonder about all the changes your body is going to go through. It’s all so scary and exciting at the same time, isn’t it?


Naturally, one of your thoughts will be to go ahead and buy maternity wear for yourself. There are a few things to keep in mind before you start doing the same. First, it is important to remember that everyone experiences pregnancy differently. Some women see their belly growing in the first few weeks, while others see increased body weight. Therefore, listen to what your body tells you rather than what others tell you. 



Resist the urge to buy maternity wear for the first 9 – 12 weeks if your regular clothes still fit you well. That said, do not try and squeeze into your old jeans either. When you begin to feel uncomfortable in your clothes, that is a clear indication to go ahead and purchase maternity wear. 


Whether you wish to buy your regular size or one size bigger is up to you. If you do not like the clothes sticking to your skin at all, then you may choose to buy a size bigger. But remember that maternity wear can accommodate your growing body, so you needn’t worry about them fitting you even after a few months have passed. 

Always look for fabrics that are soft and feel good on your skin. Nowadays, you can choose from an array of options for maternity wear online. From loungewear to lovely dresses, everything you need is available on various online shopping sites. Some of the must-haves in your maternity wardrobe that will see you through a comfortable and stylish pregnancy are:
1.    Maternity Dresses: 
These are a go-to option for expectant mothers. They are super comfortable and are ideal for the days when that belly itch is driving you crazy. They are perfect for office wear or a Sunday brunch. When choosing your dresses, make sure to check the fabric and that it doesn’t stick to your skin.  
2.    Maternity Jeans: 
Once your beautiful belly begins to grow, it is going to need a lot of room. Maternity jeans, commonly also called mom jeans are going to be your favourite companion through this phase. While picking jeans, check for the amount of stretch they provide. 
3.    Lounge Pants and Maxis: 
Picking the right loungewear is equally important because that’s what is going to see you through the not-so-easy nights. As your pregnancy progresses, there will be days when you don’t want to get out of those pants at all. That’s why you must choose the comfiest lounge pants/shorts/maxis.

When you buy maternity wear online or offline, do keep in mind that its use isn’t limited to only the 9 months of your pregnancy. After your delivery, when you are busy tending to your newborn and have no time to shop, these clothes are going to be your best friend!
