Being pregnant is undeniably a huge blessing no matter the situation you are in. However, it is also inevitable that a pregnant woman is frequently uncomfortable because of the hormonal adjustments happening in her body. This is no surprise because after all, she is growing another human being in her belly. Nevertheless, the way you dress can make a significant impact not only in terms of your comfort, but how you feel about yourself as well, particularly when you are pregnant.
Thus, here are some of the best types of dresses and underwear that you should have while bearing your child.
Dresses
- Wraparounds
Wraparounds are perfect for pregnant women because not only are these stylish, but this type of dress is also functional since it can be adjusted depending on the size of your tummy. Even if you are already in your third trimester, most wraparounds will still fit you perfectly. The best thing about wraparounds is that you can continue wearing them after you have given birth, and because of their neckline cut, these are also perfect when you are breastfeeding.
- Maxi Dresses
Another type of dress that is suited for a pregnant woman is a maxi dress. Aside from being easy to wear, a maxi dress is comfortable too, particularly when you are living in places with hot and humid weather. The weather can add to your excessive sweating that is brought about by your hormonal imbalance while you are pregnant. Thus, a maxi dress will be able to provide you with a cool and comfy feeling.
- Tunics
Tunics are also perfect for pregnant women. Those which are rather longer than usual can be worn as a dress while tunics with a shorter length can be worn over a pair of maternity pants. Tunics come in different colors and the best thing about these is that you can wear them even after you have delivered your baby.
Underwear
- Cotton Underwear with Belly Support
Cotton underwear with a full rear coverage is comfortable. However, a cotton underwear that covers your baby bump, offering an additional support to your belly is the perfect underwear while pregnant, particularly when you are already in your third trimester. However, make sure that you choose one with an adjustable sizing or one that is made from soft, stretchable and breathable fabric for ultimate comfort.
- Seamless Underwear
You can also opt to go with seamless underwear that will show no panty lines. These are made to fit nicely under your baby bump, but you can still use them even after you give birth. Seamless underwear is best to wear with dresses or maternity jeans.
To wrap things up, it is an understatement to say that being pregnant has its challenges. Be comfortable with what you wear to make your pregnancy journey more bearable. Wraparound and maxi dresses are not only fashionable, these types of dresses can also be adjusted as your belly grows. In addition to this, try cotton underwear that covers your belly for additional support or a seamless one that fits perfectly under your baby bump.
