Pregnancy Must-Have Products ?

Question

Which brands and products do you love using during pregnancy and then during nursing?

Answer

These are the two I ended up using the most, until the very end! My only complaint about the Boppy one is that it lost some of its firmness. The shape is great for putting behind your back through your legs, though.

Answer

We can’t really answer this. No two pregnancies are alike. No two women are alike. No two babies are alike. No two homes are alike. You kind of just have to try things out for yourself and figure out what works for you and your family.

Answer

I love Earth Mama products for stretch oil, belly lotion, nipple cream, and baby bottom balm (diaper rash cream). I also loved ginger tea and peppermint tea (can’t remember the brands I used). For my water I used stainless steel tumblers with a straw. The brand I bought is “Reduce” because they had 2 for $15 at Costco at the time, and they work amazingly to keep your water cold for 24 hours! I had trouble drinking enough water, so the straw really helped me, and I put fresh lemon slices with mint leaves from my garden to give the water some extra flavor. Pant extenders were my best friend to allow me to wear my skinny jeans until I was around 25 weeks, then I started wearing regular maxi skirts and leggings that fit under my bump. 
I tried 4 pregnancy pillows, but the only ones I liked were my belly wedge to go under my bump from the side (Hiccapop brand) and my Boppy wedge that looks like a giant comma to support my back and go between my legs. I might be the only person who hated my Snoogle pillow because it was way too big and it made my midnight bathroom trips (I had to go between 4-10 times per night) nearly impossible.

Answer

Well I’m the exact opposite of ‘eyeroll’ I think it’s great getting recommendations from products people liked. I was very grateful for tips my friends shared with me. Of course you can still figure out what dies or doesn’t work for you personally! 
🌼I liked the Baby & Me prenatals by mega foods (I got them at whole foods) they didn’t make me feel sick like others I tried.
🌼 I 2nd earth Mama products, also the palmers stretch mark butter. I used bio oil for awhile but it can be messy, stained my towels & I noticed some chem ingredients so swapped to a Weleda body oil, just a nice smelling one
🌼I didn’t use any pillows but wish I had! 
🌼I loved the book Baby Calm, it was really reassuring & encouraging 
🌼 I shopped at destination maternity for clothes because I didn’t know of anywhere else! But discovered v late in my pregnancy that there’s a ton of online brands that I would definitely try next time. Much cheaper! (I didn’t like gap’s stuff, it for weird) also I saw recently a rental subscription for mat. Clothes that might be good, if you like that sort of thing or depending on budget etc 
🌼lastly if you’re nauseas I tried a few things to help. I liked these ginger sweets (I’ll find u the link) drank natural version of ginger ale & wore sea sickness bands! 
Good luck! 😘

Answer

Exactly what #eyeroll said. I used nothing special during my pregnancy at all which seems to be pretty uncommon lol I had a very healthy and uncomplicated pregnancy so there was no need to buy anything special for it. I didn’t even buy maternity clothes. Not a single item haha
