Vitamin
As a soon-to-be mom, I’m learning to be more intentional with what I take daily. These are vitamin finds I’d keep on my pregnancy and postnatal checklist, with doctor’s approval first.
I have a very sensitive stomach and when taking these I didn’t have any issues with stomach upset, digestive changes or nausea. I’m not a huge fan of how expensive they are but most prenatal vitamins are expensive so I bit the bullet due to the clean...
Ritual Prenatal Multivitamin - Vegan, 60 Caps
If you're looking for an affordable one, this is it! I've been taking these prenatal vitamins for a few months now, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. The combination of folic acid and DHA gives me peace of mind knowing I’m supporting both my ...
Nature Made Prenatal Vitamins with Folic Acid + DHA, 110 Softgels
These were great during my first trimester because I developed a strong aversion to the fake fruity flavor that gummy prenatals have. The capsules don’t really have a taste or aftertaste, and they never made me feel nauseous. I also like that these a...
THORNE Basic Prenatal Multi - 30 Servings
These are the most enjoyable vitamins I’ve ever had. While they are a little pricey, the gummies are truly delicious. I feel good about taking these while nursing and recovering from labor. Also, I’ve taken them daily for a month and my hair loss has...
Pink Stork Postnatal Vitamin Gummies - 60
I think it is worth trying if you’re struggling with low milk supply and want a more natural option. I used it occasionally and it helped. It is Fenugreek-free (great if you or your baby don’t tolerate it). It is made with organic herbal ingredients....
Legendairy Milk Liquid Gold Lactation Support
Body Skincare
As a soon-to-be mom, I’m trying to be more mindful with body care too. These are gentle skincare finds for dry skin, belly care, and little self-care moments during pregnancy.
This belly butter do really work and I do consider it as highly recommended for anyone, not only women but men can also take advantage of this great product. I have experienced a better skin complex, softer, smoother, tighter and firmer as well. It g...
Burt's Bees Mama Belly Butter Stretch Mark Cream
I’ve been using Palmer’s Cocoa Butter Formula for a few weeks now, and I can already see a noticeable difference in my stretch marks. My skin feels much softer, smoother, and more hydrated. The scent is light and pleasant, not overpowering.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Stretch Mark Lotion
Underwear
Finding the right underwear during pregnancy is honestly harder than I expected. I want something that doesn’t feel too tight on the belly, but still feels secure, soft, and comfortable enough for daily wear. This list focuses mostly on maternity und...
I am OBSESSED with these! 😍 The moment I put them on, I immediately fell in love. The under-the-bump design is everything! No pressure, no digging, just pure comfort! They feel so soft and breathable, and the stretch is perfect without feeling loose...
Intimate Portal Cotton Maternity Underwear Bikini
I've now brought these shorts twice as I found them so comfy. They are perfect to slide under all clothes, they give my bump that extra support and help make it look more round.

I struggled my entire pregnancy finding the right size and comfort in bras. These are amazing! Hands down so comfortable, stretchy but still providing enough support. I was hesitant because it is wire free but great support! I can’t wait to be able t...

SUNNYBUY Women's Maternity High Waist Panties
These have become my absolute favorite shorts. I would buy them in every color if I could. They are so soft and comfortable. They are not too tight over the belly and they don’t have the top elastic that digs into you. They are a little loose at the ...

Comfort Helpers
Comfort tools for growing-belly days — from belly bands to support pillows and everyday pregnancy helpers that make moving, resting, and sleeping feel a little easier.
This band is comfortable and supportive. It is very adjustable to keep up with my growing belly. My only complaint is that the velcro is too strong. I struggle to get it on and off myself and have to have my husband help me get it apart again
KeaBabies Pregnancy Belly Band, M/L, Ivory
I bought this at 10 weeks when I was starting to not be able to button my pants. It’s wonderful for the first and (so far) early second trimesters, as I’m not big enough yet for full on maternity pants, but I also can’t button or zip any of my old pa...

This postpartum girdle is a great ally in recovery. It provides support to the abdominal area, helps improve posture, and offers comfort throughout daily activities. It’s well-fitted, discreet under clothing, and gives that feeling of support and sec...

These are extremely absorbent. I have never had a leak and have never noticed them feeling wet while wearing them, even after a strong letdown. I find them to be lightweight and subtle where you can’t see the outline of them while wearing them under ...
Organic Nursing Pads - 14 Washable Bamboo Breast Pads, Soft & Absorbent (Pastel, L 5")
Can’t recommend enough to new moms. I kept two sets while breastfeeding - one in the freezer and one to heat up. Came in handy when clogged ducts hit. Would heat a set prior to breastfeeding and then use the cold set after for relief.

It makes me comfortable and easy to wear specially after the C-section and it’s smell is very good Highly recommend it to any pregnant woman to put it on her hospital bag

Frida Mom Upside Down Peri Bottle Sprayer Gray

Pregnancy made me appreciate simple comforting things — a warm cup of tea, enough hydration, and little essentials that help me feel more calm and supported throughout the day.
Excellent product! I started taking it to increase my milk supply, and it has worked very well for me.
Traditional Medicinals Organic Mother's Milk Tea 32ct
Pregnancy era made me appreciate calming little things even more, and lavender essential oil is one of them. This one smells like real lavender, not an artificial version, and it feels so soothing to keep around. I always have one in my drawer for th...
