Pregnancy is a blessing in disguise. But buying maternity clothing could be daunting work amidst all the happiness.

Every individual experiences different struggles while going through a pregnancy. Once you finally feel like your old clothes just don’t cut it anymore, it’s time to spice up your wardrobe with comfortable and stylish clothes that ease your journey through the process of creation of the miracle that is life.

By the beginning of your second trimester is when you finally start buying and hoarding clothes that work well with how your body is transitioning. When buying maternity clothes, here are a few tips and tricks that you should keep in mind (to get the best out of your investment!),

 

1. Estimate your size correctly so you buy what feels and fits right!

In your first time, it’s always hard to gauge how exactly your body will change. Don’t look at the sizes and wear what fits and feels right for you! Size doesn’t matter, you have a literal human growing inside of you.

2. Make a list of all the essentials you require!

It’s very easy to get lost in the vibrant and diverse world of maternity wear, but don’t worry, we’re here to guide you through it. Make a list of all essential items that you require including some stretchy maternity t-shirts, some breathable dresses, mom jeans, and leggings (these are your best friends). While most of these sound familiar, owning them will be a lifesaver for all your occasions. Dress them up with added accessories or just wear them to lounge around in the house, they’re a perfect addition to your ever-growing closet.

3. Think beyond pregnancy!

Your life doesn’t end the day you have your baby, that’s the day it begins. So invest in clothing items that not only help in your pregnancy days but also follow suit during the nursing times. Maternity clothes that make you feel beautiful, graceful, and comfortable, even after those nine months end are what you should aim to buy.

4. Finally, pick the right place to purchase your maternity wear from!

At The Vanca, our maternity wear is beautiful, comfortable, and sustainable, all benefits for the price of one! With every garment you buy, you give back to the environment more than you take from it (compared to other non-sustainable brands). With a brand that is focused on adding value to its products in a way that negatively affects the environment in the least way possible, you will never have to worry about adverse effects to either you or the future you’re shaping for your wonderful children.
