Pregnancy Must Haves
Used this morning and night throughout my pregnancy, and I never got a single stretch mark! It’s rich, moisturizing, and doesn't leave you feeling greasy.
Mama Belly Butter
Loved using this during pregnancy! It kept my skin soft and hydrated, and smells good without a overpowering scent. Used this morning and night in combination with a belly butter and never got any stretch marks!
Daily Moisturizing Body Oil Mist with Oat Oil
Had really painful carpal tunnel during pregnancy and sleeping with a wrist brace helped manage the pain so much!
FEATOL Wrist Brace, Carpal Tunnel Support
The third-trimester swelling is no joke! Sleeping in these compression socks made a huge difference—my legs/feet were less swollen in the morning. Total game-changer for pregnancy comfort!
FITRELL 3 Pairs Compression Socks 20-30mmHg
Love, love, love these! I started taking them before pregnancy and still taking them postpartum. One of the only prenatals with choline, which is essential for baby’s brain development, and the lemon flavor makes them so easy to take.
Prenatal Vitamins | Essential Prenatal
I'm super picky about my leggings but I loved these while pregnant! So much that I ordered multiple pairs.
CRZ YOGA Womens Butterluxe Maternity Leggings 25"
This helped so much with my back and hip pain! It is so cozy to snuggle into - even my husband has used it!
Huggable - U Shaped Maternity Body Pillow
Super comfy maternity shirts! A great price and comes in a pack of 3. I lived in these during pregnancy!
Smallshow Women's Maternity Side Ruched Tunic
Wore these under dresses! Felt like it gave the belly extra support and helped with chafing
Baby Bump Premium Maternity Shapewear High Waisted
Drank this the last few days or my pregnancy and ended up having a super fast labor. It actually tastes really good. I made a big batch that I kept in the fridge and mixed it with lemonade for an Arnold Palmer!
Lansinoh HotTea Mama Final Push Tea - Raspberry Leaf Tea for Pregnancy - 0.7oz/14ct
Very sturdy, helps during labor and fits nicely in your hand! Love that it comes with a little travel case
Arrozon Wooden Birth Comb for Labor Moms
If you’re pregnant, you NEED this in your third trimester! I’d sit on it all the time. Eases back, hip and pelvic pain. Totally worth it!
Trideer Extra Thick Yoga Ball, 5 Sizes, Pump
Postpartum Must Haves
Can’t recommend these enough! I started wearing them while still in the hospital. I lived in just these and a nursing bra for the first week postpartum. They're also so comfy!
Personally liked this more than the one hospital gives you. The angle makes it so much easier to use. 10/10 recommend
Frida Mom Upside Down Peri Bottle
This is another item that the hospital will give you and another postpartum must have. I loved keeping a bottle in each bathroom in my house!
Dermoplast Pain Relief Spray for Minor Cuts, Burns and Bug Bites - 2.75oz
The hospital gave me these, I loved them so much I bought more! These are a must have for postpartum
Tucks Medicated Hemorrhoidal Pads - 100ct
These are so nice to have as a transition after the disposables! Super comfy and great quality
Molasus Women's Cotton High Waisted Panties
Was gifted this as a baby shower gift and was so happy I received this. It has everything you need from the disposable underwear, peri bottle and even the ice packs!
