Being comfortable is everything in pregnancy so this of course includes sleepwear. We spend a good third of the day in our sleepwear so it should fit right and be cozy. I personally could wear my normal sized pj´s until six or seven months without having a deficit in comfort and fit but at some point things get tight and it won´t fit the right way anymore.
I definitely did a lot of research on maternity pj´s and in my opinion Asos has the cutest prints and styles. Also the most affordable sets but I also found cute maternity/nursing pj´s on Amazon.
In terms of sizing I went up one size cause I definitely wanted them to fit until the end of pregnancy and you never know how much weight you will gain along the way. I definitely was a good idea and I am still very happy with my maternity pj´s.
Although I am 36 weeks pregnant now I didn´t get a lot of maternity pieces in general. I have bought some different pairs of jeans but the rest I am wearing are stretchy knit dresses or skirts and shirts I went up one size. That works great for me over here but I guess you have to figure that out by yourself and it also depends on how big your bump gets.
I have always loved colors and I am trying to incorporate a good amount of color into my daily looks. Some colors are really outstanding to me like this vibrant royal blue shade. Isn´t it drop dead gorgeous?
The skirt I am wearing in today´s look is the perfect versatile piece as it includes a bunch of different colors which means you can wear it so many different ways and with many different colors.
It was a pretty warm day for this look so I only wore a leather jacket with it which you could definitely do in spring. The skirt is from SheIn like many pieces I have been wearing lately. They totally stepped up their game and have many cute things. Also the spring dress choices are to die for.
Since it is still really cold here I love to wear fishnet tights with my look. Always had a fable for them and got several different colors. In my opinion they just lighten up the look and add sophistication and sexyness to the outfit.
The weather has been crazy lately so I am not as with Spring content as I wanted to be so I am focus a lot on pregnancy posts these days as I can shoot them indoors.
since being pregnant I have been thinking a ton about what to eat that my baby also gets the right ingredients and stays healthy in there cause everything I take to myself the baby also does. The same goes for beauty and skincare products. The skin is absorbing over 50 % of the ingredients you put onto it so your products better be pregnancy safe and non-toxic cause it gets in your cycle no matter what and it will maybe affect your baby.
I have been searching the web up and down and reading / comparing articles and ingredient descriptions as intense you could think I want to become a professional chemist. But now I know what I am safe to use and what not. Which substances are okay, great and forbidden.
Disclosure: I am in no way a doctor or have any medical knowledge. I did my own research for this blog post and read a lot on the internet, I also asked my practitioner if it was fine to take these products and she ended up giving me green light but I would suggest to ALWAYS talk to your doctor first. You can make a preselection by yourself but I would definitely get the products approved before using them on a daily base.
Cleanser
Biotherm Total Renew Balm // The BEST cleansing balm I have ever had. It totally melts off the make-up of your face. I haven´t found anything that cleaned better than this so far.
Nuxe Micellar Foam Cleanser // Awesome smelling face foam (you can totally smell the roses) that actually doesn´t dry out your skin while you are cleaning it.
Toner
Neutrogena Skin Detox Micellair Water // I have had the Hydro Boost toner before but they discontinued it so I went with this one. It fullfills the same purpose.
Dr. Hauschka Clarifying Toner // I really love this product and have been using it for years, even before I was on the hunt for clean products. This product has absolutely made my skin better and I use it after cleaning my face and before my face cream in the mornings and at night.
Eye Cream
Neutrogena Hydro Boost (not picutred here) // Needed to switch eye creams cause the last I have used included Retinol which is an absolute no-go when you are pregnant.
Serum
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid // I have heard a lot about this company before I have even ordered anything. They are super affordable and almost to good to be true. I have a bunch of their serums but the only one I can use for now is the Hyaluronic Acid cause it is a product of your own body.
Kiehl´s Midnight Recovery Concentrate // I ordered this even before I was pregnant and thankfully I am still able to use it as all the ingredients are considered to be pregnancy friendly. The serum contains a bunch of essential oils which makes the smell so so good. It also leaves your skin super soft. I use the serums two times a week and so far they work great.
Moisturizer
Rituals The Ritual of Namasté 24h Hydrating Gel Cream
Rituals The Ritual of Namasté Hydrating Overnight Creme // Rituals has been a go-to around her for many year and I always loved their products. They are a little pricey but they hold up so well and are made of awesome quality so I don´t mind about that. It was just recently that I discovered their skincare series and I loved it right away. The smell of roses is awesome and the face cream goes on really smooth and doesn´t feel greasy at all. I have the duo for day and night. All of their products are natural and Rituals even offers a mom and a baby line if you are interested.
Face Oil
Dr. Hauschka Clarifying Day Oil // I have read about this on Helena´s blog (The Brooklyn Blonde) before, she adds one drop of face oil to her foundation everyday. I have tried it and loved it. My foundation goes on very smooth now and it doesn´t look cakey at all throughout the day. Definitely worth a shot.
Face Mask
Kiehl´s Turmeric & Cranberry Seed Energizing Radiance Masque // The best smelling face mask I have ever had, fruity but also relaxing in a good way. It includes little particles of cranberry seeds that have an exfoliating effect to your skin. The little can doesn´t include a lot but it is definitely worth a try as it is that good.
Dr. Hauschka Clarifying Clay Mask // Comes as a powder and you have to mix it all by yourself but this makes it even easier cause you can create the consistency and the amount you want to. All of Dr. Hauschkas´s products are natural and therefore perfect for pregnancy.
Pixi FortifEYE Firming Eye Patches // Love to use eye patches cause they instantly make you look fresher after using them. I am planning on storing them in the fridge and using them after every long night I have with our sweet baby girl.
These are all the products I have used and loved so far since I am pregnant. I haven´t tried out anything new after I found a product that I was able to use.
Isn´t a poncho the most versatile piece for Winter and also transitioning into other seasons. It is so easy to style for different ocassions and also for different seasons. I styled it very casually for this all black look. To add some color I styled it with my favortie western inspired booties.
Absolutely love to throw it over a dress to on cool spring and summer evenings. The chevron pattern is so cool and works for many pieces also the white and creme are a timeless color option.
I got this golden necklace from amazoan and it has a little E on it. For our daughters name. I am wearing it as often as possible and I also want to get her birth date engraved in roman letters in a necklace to but for that we first have to see what official date she is picking.
