10 Maternity Wear DO's and DON'Ts for the Expectant Mum
Maternity wear is a big investment so it is definitely worth doing your homework before you buy. This is an amazing time for you and you deserve to look and feel great! With so much maternity wear to choose from you can definitely find the style and fit that works for you during pregnancy - turning that bloating to blooming in moments! Here are 10 do's and don't to help you along your way....
1) DO make the most of your budget
It may sound simple but careful planning of your maternity wardrobe is an absolute must to ensure you have sufficient threads to see you through to the end of pregnancy and beyond.
At around 10 - 12 weeks you may feel your clothes begin to tighten. This is a great time to check out what's on offer. It's hard to imagine how your body will change throughout your pregnancy so it's important to find clothes that will grow with you. Be mindful of comfort and fashion in equal measure!
2) DO shop for your pre-pregnancy size
If you are lucky enough to be all bump throughout your pregnancy, congratulations! Most 'Mum's to Be' gain a little weight around the edges so bear this in mind when choosing the ultra skinny jenas or snug fit t-shirts. Most maternity manufacturers actually design their clothes with this in mind and size their clothes accordingly, so don't be tempted to order larger sizes to compensate for your increase in size.
3) DO shop for a few essential items as soon as you can. Maternity wardrobe capsules should undoubtedly include the following;
o Maternity Jeans - Designed to fit around your growing bump, either under the bump, over the bump or on the bump.
o Maternity Maxi Dress - A summer time must will keep you cool and comfortable
o Maternity Vests - Long length maternity vests are invaluable. A great fitting maternity vest sits snug under your bump and will allow you to wear your pre-pregnancy tops a lot longer (without your bump protruding!)
o Party Wear - Just because you are pregnant doesn't mean your social life is over. Treat yourself to some glam, feel good maternity wear that shows off your curves.
o Maternity Pyjamas - Comfort at night will become your no.1 priority soon enough - plus a good pair of PJ's in hospital post birth will be a comfort.
o Maternity Swimsuit / Yoga Pants - Many 'Mum's to be' benefit from some light exercise, be it for fitness, relaxation or to prepare for your birth.
4) DO consider maternity wear that will look good post birth
Most expectant mums expect maternity wear to be a short term wardrobe entry. Truth is, it can take a lot longer than anticipated to return to your pre-pregnancy clothes. Keep this in mind when shopping for your maternity wear. For example, look for trousers that have waist adjusters that grow and shrink as your body does.
5) DO consider what you might need for today AND for future pregnancies
It's very easy to begrudge the cost of your maternity wear purchases. You'll only be in them for 6-9 months perhaps? Think again! You could be in them for a year at a time, and for two, three or more pregnancies! If you are planning on a large brood, think in terms of 'maternity wear investments', pay a little more for quality items that will last you throughout.
6) DON'T buy non maternity clothing just in a larger size
Maternity wear is designed primarily with your comfort in mind. It grows with your body so you only need to by one (usually your pre-pregnancy) size. Buying larger clothing will only be a short term fix for your growing waistband. Your bump will quickly outgrow your larger size and you'll be back at the shops.
Well designed maternity wear offers you some modesty compared to everyday clothes from the high street that are unlikely to completely cover your bump. Celebrate your new curves with clothes that are tailored to your shape!
7) DON'T buy super priced items if you can't afford them
While it pays to invest in quality maternity wear items, designer prices may be a step too far. If you don't have deep pockets make sure you plan your budget carefully. If your are pregnant with your first child you will shortly have an enormous outlay of cash coming your way in the form of cots, prams, car seats, baby clothes and so on! My Site Dad Kids T-Shirts
8) DON'T throw your maternity wardrobe away until you are absolutely sure
Many a mum has been caught out with this! Don't get rid of your old maternity wear until you are absolutely sure that the patter of tiny feet will no longer be heard in your home. Unless space is an issue, why not pop your clothes into the attic / into a storage box and come back to them at a much later date.
9) DO remember to recycle your maternity wear
When you decide that your maternity wardrobe is redundant, there are some great avenues to recycle your old maternity clothes. List them on ebay, take them to your next NCT (National Childbirth Trust) Nearly New Sale, or donate to a local charity shop.
10) And finally, but most importantly DO show off!
This is the most amazing and magical time of your life, so live it, and rejoice in the beauty of your curves. Pregnancy / motherhood may be one of the hardest jobs you'll ever do, but to 'give life' is truly an amazing and privileged position that should be celebrated.

Cool Shirts For Kids
So, you have a pile of little kids and all those little kids need t shirts. You could go to the local Marshalls or TJ Maxx and get them the same shirt that every other kid in their preschool class will have. You know the one. That polo shirt with the three buttons and the stand up collar? That shirt that you have to fight with them to get them to wear? The shirt that has that embroidered logo that scratches the life out of them? Yeah, that shirt. Or, you could go out and buy them a pile of cool kids shirts that they will love. My Site Dad Kids T-Shirts
Why fight about getting dressed everyday. Kids need to feel comfortable in their clothes just like adults do. Don't you remember that one outfit your mom made you wear that you just hated? I do. It was a scratchy peach dress with an awful blue bow that threatened to cut me in half. Ughhh! I just wanted to wear my Levi's and a cool t shirt. Ok. I know that sometimes kids just have to wear those scratchy tight clothes, but why not also fill the drawers with a pile of really cool kids t shirts. It will really make the start of everyone's day much easier. Graphic Printed T Shirts are everywhere today. You can find all over prints, or single image unique prints. You can find band shirts, and metallic Christian shirts. You can even find printed shirts that are so soft your kids won't want to take them off.
Some of the new t shirts for kids might even be able to pass for an event that they have to be a little dressed up. That same scratchy old polo can now be purchased in a soft 100% cotton with a cool graphic print on the bottom, side or back that will give it a little style. Try to be careful when buying kids embroidered clothing. There is a backing on embroidered clothes that can become stiff and very uncomfortable. Instead, look for soft fabrics with discharge or water based prints. (They feel softer to the touch) If your child loves fish or animals, try to find some shirts with that subject on it. How about a giant bear coming out of the side seam of the shirt? A little humor with a t shirt that says "Mayhem" in huge bold letters across the front? You've got to love a kid that's full of a little "Mayhem".
