Before and after giving birth, your body shape changes significantly. During pregnancy, your physical condition tends to be unstable, and you need to take care of your baby's health, so you need to be careful about what you wear. Recently, prenatal and postnatal clothing that is not only functional but also has excellent design is on sale, and the options are expanding. Let's take a look at what prenatal and postnatal wear is and how it differs from regular clothing. We will also introduce pre- and post-natal wear developed by baby carrier brand BABY&Me based on the voices of mothers.

What is prenatal and postnatal wear?

Maternity wear was once called maternity wear. These clothes are designed to keep you comfortable during pregnancy, when your belly grows and your physical condition changes easily.
Start using it around 4 to 6 months, when your stomach starts to become noticeable.

In the past, one-piece styles were the norm, as they did not tighten the stomach and were easily adaptable to changes in size. Recently, there are pants and denim, so there is a lot of variety. The design is designed to look natural even if your stomach protrudes, as it uses highly stretchy fabric and allows you to adjust the size.
Thanks to a wide range of options, you can now enjoy the same style as before pregnancy, depending on your preferences.

Even after giving birth, it takes some time for your body to completely return to its original shape. The advantage of prenatal and postnatal wear is that you can continue to wear it while covering your body shape and adjusting the size. One of the key points is that it accommodates new needs that arise after childbirth, such as breastfeeding. Make good use of it and live a comfortable and stylish pre- and post-natal life.

What are the characteristics of prenatal and postnatal wear?

During pregnancy, it is important to choose clothes that are loose and comfortable to wear even as your belly grows. Tightening your body can make you feel sick, and there is also the risk of putting pressure on your unborn baby.

Maternity wear for before giving birth is designed to make your stomach less noticeable.
If you don't wear special clothing, the fabric will tend to pull as your stomach protrudes, causing your silhouette to collapse. However, maternity wear that is made with the changing body shape of pregnant women in mind is designed so that you can wear it while maintaining your natural shape, so you don't have to worry. I'm glad that it's not only comfortable and safe, but also fashionable.
Clothes that can be adjusted to size or have drapes that cover your stomach in a fashionable way can be worn for a long time, from pre-natal to post-natal, as they are suitable for all body types.

What helps after giving birth is nursing clothes that have a nursing opening or buttons that open in the front. As the name suggests, these are clothes for mothers who breastfeed, designed to make breastfeeding easier.

What kind of prenatal and postnatal clothes are made by baby carrier brands?

BABY&Me is a brand of hip seat carriers, which are a type of baby carrier.
Through product development and sales of baby carriers, we listened to the real voices of mothers, and realized that during pregnancy, when your body changes a lot, it becomes increasingly difficult to wear the clothes you like.As more and more people continue to work after finding out they are pregnant, there are no pants or shirts that can be worn at work. Based on this concern, we developed clothing that can be worn comfortably for a long time, both before and after childbirth, regardless of changes in body shape.
With a focus on design and functionality, it can be worn for a long time, from working during pregnancy to going out after giving birth.

Let's introduce the recommended points of bottoms, tops, and mountain parkas.

BABY&Me prenatal and postnatal wear - Recommended points for bottoms

There are two types of bottoms.

tapered pants

There is plenty of room from the buttocks to the legs, so it won't get too tight even during pregnancy, and can be used in any occasion, such as office or formal wear.
The waist has elastic on the back and snap buttons on the left and right sides of the front for size adjustment. With snap buttons, it can be expanded by 11cm on each side and 22cm on both sides.
During early pregnancy, before your stomach becomes noticeable, you can close the inner button to create a feminine tuck in the front of your waist, and even if you unbutton it and increase the size, you can maintain a beautiful silhouette, so it is a design that can be worn stylishly before and after giving birth.

 

A self-fabric belt with 12 holes at 3cm intervals is also included, so the size can be adjusted using the belt. Another nice feature is that you can hide the size adjustment buttons with the belt.

baker pants

Baker pants, which are characterized by large pockets and a thick silhouette, can be adjusted in stages to suit your growing belly during pregnancy with the elastic with holes and buttons at the two inner side waists.

The fabric is smooth to the touch and feels cool to the touch, and one of its features is that it stretches in four directions: vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, making it easy to move around. It's water-repellent so it doesn't get dirty easily and can be washed at home. It is sure to come in handy when you go out with your baby after giving birth.
