Pregnancy is a milestone, you are
bringing a new life to the world. Mothers usually do everything in their power
to make sure their bundle of joys are comfortable but are they themselves
comfortable enough? Comfort should be a mother’s priority both for herself and
the baby, it is a necessity. She must dress comfortably, because trust me, no
aspect of pregnancy is easy.
Why Should Pregnant Women Wear Comfortable
Clothes?
Wearing comfortable clothes can
really affect your body and your mind too. Here are some reasons why you should
wear comfortable clothes.
- Your body starts to change drastically.
Through the entire pregnancy phase, you will definitely see tremendous changes
and that’s why you need to be prepared for it. So your clothes must not only be
comfortable but they must also be appropriate for growth.
- During pregnancy, your body is on
high alert, due to hormonal imbalance. Hormonal imbalance leads to highly
sensitive skin. Rash, allergies and other skin problems can be developed if you
don’t wear the right material.
- The first trimester of pregnancy
involves lots of nausea and vomiting. Wearing tight clothes at such instances
will lead to heartburns and indigestion which can result in more vomiting. So
it very important to wear loose fitting but nice clothes to keep these feelings
at bay.
- 9 months of pregnancy also involves
going through different seasons of the year. Pregnant women feel extremely warm
during summer and extremely cold during winter, due to heightened sensitivity.
So it’s vital to dress accordingly. Loose cotton dresses for summer and woolen
clothes for winter.
- You can’t sleep on your stomach
anymore. So your sleeping posture changes too. Your sleepwear must be loose and
comfortable, in order to feel well rested.
What Type Of Clothes Should Pregnant Women
Wear?
Pregnancy can come in the way of
your fashion statements. Your jeans and tops don’t fit you anymore and you are
frustrated. Well, you can always look like a million dollars but in the
maternity style. So what types of clothes should you wear?
Cotton is your best friend, in and
out of pregnancy. Wear cotton clothes that are loose, comfortable and
breathable. Cotton absorbs sweat and keeps you sweat free and cool. Cotton
happens to be very gentle on the skin, so it’s a win-win situation.
Go for pants or skirts with
drawstrings. That way you can adjust it according to your convenience. And they
feel soft your skin too.
Wear clothes that provide support to
your baby bump. There are many
maternity clothes and tops that provide both comfort
and support to you.
With pregnancy, your waist and your
breast increase in size. Discard your old undergarments for new ones. Now when
you’re pregnant fancy bras which are wired or padded are not healthy for the
breasts. So it’s best to go for cotton bras and bras that can sit in
breastfeeding.
Wraparounds are both stylish and
comfortable. Invest in them and team them up with tank tops or tunics.
Comfort, your first priority when
selecting loose clothing. Extremely tight clothes have an adverse reaction. So
think wisely and choose smartly.
