{made with love} all things loved.

October 21, 2011

I’m kind of busy having a baby today, but… I thought I’d share with you a few of my favorite things from pregnancy!

all-things-loved

1. Be Maternity Ruched Tank: I picked this tank top up at Target early in my pregnancy, and LOVED it. It fit wonderfully throughout all three trimesters of my pregnancy. In the first (and part of the second) trimester, it worked beautifully at holding up my pre-pregnancy jeans when I got to that “these don’t quite fit, but I’m not ready for maternity clothes” stage. The tank, paired with shorts or capris, hugged my belly & made me look cute and pregnant after I finally started showing. I plan on wearing this postpartum, too, and have it packed in my hospital bag!

2. Snoogle: I used a body pillow early on in my pregnancy, but by the time I hit week 18 my hips were aching & I wasn’t getting a good nights sleep. Someone suggested a Snoogle to me, so I caved and bought it. It’s a bit pricey, but let me tell you — that was the best $60 I ever spent. The further I got into my pregnancy, the more of a hassle the Snoogle came to me. By the time I was 36 weeks pregnant, I felt “trapped” and it wound up on the floor more than it did in our bed. All in all, though, I LOVED the Snoogle for the few months that I did use it (so much, in fact, that it went on vacation with me!)

3. Old Navy: I almost exclusively bought all my maternity clothes from Old Navy. You can’t beat their pricing, and stacked with coupon codes & other offers, it would have been silly for me to buy anywhere else. We don’t have any stores that sell their maternity collection nearby, so I had to rely on online shopping which was a total breeze. In fact, I almost preferred it.

4. Non-maternity Empire waist tops: Even at 39 weeks pregnant, I could still comfortably wear any of my pre-pregnancy tops as long as they were empire waist shirts. This really came in handy once the cooler weather set in, and I didn’t want to spend money on maternity clothes for the whole three weeks of fall I’d be pregnant in.

5. B-Natal Pregnancy Pops: My OB gave me a sample of this pregnancy lollipop after I complained about extreme nausea. I was blessed with all-day-sickness for the first sixteen weeks of pregnancy. I admit that I was a bit skeptical of a lollipop
