What are the right clothes to wear during pregnancy?

As pregnancy progresses, your usual clothes will be small due to the increase in the size of the uterus. You can buy suitable clothes for pregnancy because it is specially designed for pregnant women or borrow it if you have a family member or friend who has been recently pregnant.

Pregnancy is a stage in the life of a very special woman, many physical changes occurs and, as the weeks of pregnancy progress, the sensation of discomfort and oppression will increase. To alleviate, to a certain extent this, we advise you to follow these tips on clothing in pregnancy:

- It is preferable to use large and comfortable clothing, do not oppress.

- There is a wide range of stores in the market dedicated to clothing for pregnant women, who sell pants and skirts with a special waistband to hold tight the belly and that adapt as the gut grows.

- The indoor clothing must be made of cotton or natural fibbers. You will have to buy new bras that adapt to your physical structure. If you are going to buy a new one, remember to buy those that do not have hoops.

- If you use stockings or pantyhose, choose those that are self-adjusting elastic fabrics and that favour venous return.

- As your abdomen grows, you will feel more comfortable with special pregnancy panties. They are those that carry reinforcement in the lower abdomen to hold tightly the belly.

- The most suitable footwear is one that does not have an excessive heel, only a few centimetres are necessary if you don’t like flats.
Clothing that should not be used during pregnancy

- Avoid using rigid fabrics that can cause skin irritations

- If you wear socks, use those that do not compress too much to allow good blood circulation. Especially since in this period because swelling in the ankles is easy to occur.

- Avoid high heels, not only will it be difficult to take them since your centre of gravity is displaced, but they are not good for circulation and can cause the appearance of varicose veins.

- During the hot months, avoid dark colours, as they absorb more heat from the sun and cause more sweating.

Tips to dress when you're pregnant:

• Comfort is the most important thing: what is said, the main thing is to look for comfort. If you're going to buy some clothes, but you do well at the time and buy something you go a little bit, so you always have something to wear.

• Look for ideas in maternity stores or haberdasheries: there are various solutions such as elastic bands, or rubber bands with buttons that can be used to continue using the usual clothes. A widely used resource is to wear the usual pants with the fly fully open and an elastic band stitched so that, in addition to covering, give elasticity to the waist of the pants.

• Take advantage of things you already have: clothes that you have that go a little big or maybe some jersey or shirt of your partner, which is no plan to change the entire wardrobe for a few months.

• The waist should be wide and comfortable: change the rubber waist of the skirts and pants for a more elastic or loose or even change it by a cord. This way it will never press (when the rubber reaches its limit it will end up tightening too much). If you wear stockings, which are wool or cotton and with a very wide waist so they do not squeeze.
