Maternity Nightwear
Pajamas and Nightgowns that Adapt to Changing Body Lines
A woman's body changes during pregnancy, so comfort is more important than ever during this time. Any garment, and pajamas for pregnant and nursing women are no exception, must be comfortable and adapt over time to changing body shapes – so you don't have to constantly update your wardrobe every month.
What Nightgowns and Pajamas to Choose for Pregnant Women?
Choose nightgowns with elastic bands that will not constrict or press on the growing belly. Pajamas for pregnant women should be made of natural, breathable materials – quality cotton, linen, or silk.
Nightgowns or pajamas should be the right size, with comfortable, non-constricting straps, and sleeves or pants of a comfortable length. Therefore, it is important to consider the size of the desired nightwear – if you normally wear S, when considering new nightwear during pregnancy, stick to your size. If you do not notice significant body changes for some time and only your belly is naturally growing, your usual S (or any other size worn until then) will be perfect, but if you notice that the size of your upper clothes is also changing (to a smaller or larger size), choose your nightwear accordingly.
All nightgowns adapted for pregnant women have a loose belly area, so you can wear them not only for one or two months but also longer. Elastic material nightgowns will not stretch out – if you wash and care for them according to the manufacturer's instructions on the label, you will be able to successfully wear them even after pregnancy. The fabric will not be stretched or lose its aesthetic appearance.
What Nightgowns to Choose for Nursing?
If you are preparing for breastfeeding, choose nightgowns specially designed for nursing. Such nightgowns conveniently unfasten in the chest area and do not need to be removed during feeding. Some models may have special absorbent pads near the breasts that can be removed and washed.
Nursing nightgowns can be of various colors and lengths, and you can also choose the desired style, sleeve length, and button size. Such a garment should not only be comfortable for breastfeeding the baby but also for sleeping, so make sure that laces, buttons, or zippers do not bother you or the baby.
Most Common Nightgown and Pajama Models for Moms
The most popular nightgown model for moms is the nightgown-dress, as well as two-piece cotton pajamas. They consist of a long tunic-blouse and wide pants with a soft elastic band around the waist.
Both nightgowns and pajamas can be decorated with lace, ruffles, and stylish fabric patterns – suitable for every woman's taste and comfort.
