Maternity nightwear is absolutely essential when you’re expecting – and we predict you’ll pretty much live in yours. As well as maternity leggings, maternity knickers and maternity loungewear, maternity pyjamas and nighties are a must-have for your pregnancy wardrobe – also carrying you through your fourth trimester when you probably won’t leave the house much. I actually still wear my maternity nightwear two years on because it’s so damn comfy.
As any pregnant woman can attest, the nine months you’re carrying your precious cargo isn’t always the most comfortable, which is why owning at least one pair of loose-fitting, soft-as-butter pyjamas is essential. Ditch the sexy lace, niggling seams, and tight, unbreathable fabrics in favour of flowing, breathable cotton nightwear that feels as good as it looks. When you’re contending with a burgeoning bump, night sweats and constant trips to the toilet, great maternity nightwear is an investment worth making. Anything to help you feel a bit more comfortable when you cosy up to that body pillow at bedtime, right?
With stretchy waistbands that comfortably cover your bump and support it – without making you feel like you’re being squeezed – and tops that allow for breastfeeding later down the line, maternity nightwear forms the base for most pregnant women’s wardrobes – and trust me, you’ll spend a lot of time in bed. Plus, if you’re looking for the perfect mum-to-be gift, maternity nightwear is a perfect contender.
