Pregnancy
I am a plus size mama and this fit really well around my growing belly! It was really nice in relieving some pressure when I had to be up and about during the day. It wasn’t comfortable sitting down, but it was as so helpful when I had to be standing...
KeaBabies Maternity Belly Band
These were great when I had morning sickness! I know they won’t work the same for everyone, but I was really grateful to have them. And, honestly, anything sour helped because you can’t really take any medication. 😫
Preggie Pop Drops Plus
These!!! I am not a Crocs girl, but the fact that these were glitter and fit my growing feet helped me to feel a little more fabulous when I felt like a whale. 🤷♀️ I did have to size up when I was pregnant. They are a little roomy now, but I still ...
Crocs Unisex-Adult Classic Glitter Clogs
THIS! This was literally the only way I could sleep some days because my headaches got so bad during pregnancy. It isn’t for everyone (my husband doesn’t care for it), but I’m really grateful I had it as there’s only so much Tylenol you can take/caff...
RENPHO Eyeris 1 Eye Massager with Heat
This was AMAZING for the third trimester!!! I had my PT show me how to apply it but I’m sure there are lots of videos online that can show you how to apply it to your belly. It’s basically a non-bulky pregnancy belt to help lift your belly and take s...
KT Tape Original Cotton Elastic Kinesiology 20ct
Dry skin during pregnancy is no joke! Especially on stretch marks. 😳 Use this right after you’re done in the shower when you’re still a little damp. Put it everywhere! You can let it soak into your skin or you can towel dry right after - I didn’t no...
Johnson's Baby Oil Gel
This pillow 🤌 saved my sleep! I only had the small attachments (shown for early pregnancy) but, by the end, I was using so many pillows that I wish I had all of these options! I appreciate that it was so lightweight that I didn’t have to completely ...
Adjustable Pregnancy Pillow for Sleeping
Postpartum
I didn’t have too many issues postpartum, but this was really nice when I needed a little extra comfort! It’s also lightweight and on the smaller side (as far as cushions go) so it’s easy to carry around.
Donut Pillow Seat Cushion
Flanges are SO confusing! And your nipple size can change! Ugh!!!
This was so helpful in finding my right size and updating it, as needed. I was really grateful that this also came with the flange inserts so I didn’t have to buy an additional item. ...
Flange Inserts 10PCS 13-21mm for 24mm Pumps
Just trust me! This makes the after birth 💩 SO much easier! Plus, after a few days, you’re going to get sick of filling up the peri bottle. Its great for outside of pregnancy, too. Honestly one of the things I miss most when going on vacation!
LUXE Bidet NEO 185
These are so much more convenient than the circular pads. Super cooling and stay in place.
Frida Mom Perineal Witch Hazel Cooling Pad Liners Genital Irritation Treatment - 24ct
You just need a new pack of underwear after giving birth - one that you don’t mind getting dirty with any postpartum mess once you’re ready to downgrade to pads.
Hanes Women's Core Cotton Briefs Underwear
Stock up on as many supplies as you can from the hospital, and then get these! It’s so nice to just throw it all in the garbage. I only needed one pack of these before I moved on to pads.
Depend Silhouette Underwear for Women - Maximum Absorbency - L - Pink - 12ct
Just… do it. It helps. And take them for a few days to help you get back to normal.
Colace Regular Strength Stool Softener 30ct
I didn’t notice a difference between these and the name brand. I used both the disposable and washable ones. These were helpful at night - I doubled up on them so I didn’t leak through my shirt… 😳
Disposable Breast Pads - 100ct - up&up™
I LIVED in these for weeks! So comfy, easy to open, and a breathable fabric. I ended up buying these in a few different colors!
