WEATHER CHANGES – SO SHOULD YOU

Be a force of nature

Depending on where you live, you may be soaking up the sun or shoveling the snow. The start of spring is fickle, which is why transitional maternity styles are the most essential. No matter what the skies are doing in your area, you can still be a FASHION-FORWARD force of nature!

The classic leggings and tee pairing is an actual live-in look. You can get up, go for your morning walk (even if you need to use the treadmill because of ice!), throw on a maternity cardigan and head to brunch. These maternity leggings are fresh in floral for spring, and the crochet pocket maternity tee is channeling warm weather in a pretty pop of coral-pink.

The not so basic maternity basics are light enough to be layered over, can be dressed up or down and worn with virtually any shoe: boots, flats, sneaks and flip flops too. Get ready for some fresh air, a warm breeze or even a cool burst of wind, because with your new glow and your new clothes you are truly a natural beauty.

PREGNANT TO PARENT PAJAMAS

The thing we like about our pajamas, you know besides the unbelievable softness, stretch and comfort, is that they can be used way past the bump stage and right into feeding or cuddling your new baby stage. We call our maternity sleepwear, nursing sleepwear, because we know that pregnancy really lasts “four trimesters.” As contradictory as that sounds, those first three months are an extension of pregnancy… just with a living, breathing being.

Our newest sleepwear is perfect to show you while rounding out our Week of Sleep. These maternity pajama pants and nursing nightgown are both featured in our fresh floral print. We paired the bottoms with the “I Love You More Than Sleep” maternity and nursing sleep shirt and topped our best-selling nightgown with our light pink nursing robe.

All pieces are seasonally transitional, trimester transitional, as well as interchangeable with each other. We hope you are sleeping like an actual BUMP on a log, but if not, we then hope this past week has given you some tips, styles and products to consider for making every night a good night. So, here’s to happy days and restful nights!

WELCOME TO YOUR WEEK OF SLEEP

The Snoogle - one pillow that takes the place of five. Multi-positional so you get a perfect night's sleep

Have you met the Snoogle yet? It may look like your ordinary body pillow, but let us break this down for you. It’s the MOTHER of all maternity pillows. Take it from me, an actual person, the pillow is worth it.

I recently had a baby and when I was pregnant I received my Snoogle from my husband who wanted to treat me with a gift; that night was the first night in MONTHS that I had gotten any sleep at all! From then on I used it every night. Then, after I gave birth, I decided to nurse my daughter. I did have the Boppy pillow, which I also love, but the Snoogle is softer and can be manipulated, curved and propped both behind your back and your stomach. Thus, it became my go-to for nursing too. For the next few months I continued to use the Snoogle post-partum for sleep, because my body was healing. (It’s easy to clean, because of the removable covers.) I cannot speak for those who have had a C-section, but I can imagine it also affording some support for those recovering from the surgery.

It really is a great investment! If you don’t want to take my word for it, then take some other real expecting women’s words of wisdom (over 200 reviews!) Here’s to kicking off our Week of Sleep with dreamy items and dreamier savings. See below!

So, if you are reading this blog from Friday, March 10, 2017 through Sunday, March 12, 2017 we are running a special: $20 off the Snoogle Total Body Pillow! Text MHSNOOGLE to 40679 to receive a special coupon* to be used in stores.

IN-VEST IN WARMTH WITH THE PUFFER

mh-puffervestblog

Everyone knows that pregnancy can make you feel hot one minute and freezing the next. We get it! And we sympathize. If you’re on the edge about leaving the house without a coat, throw on our maternity puffer vest. It bundles the bump, lets your arms breathe, but keeps your chest and torso toasty for those winter chills. It doesn’t hurt that it’s totally on trend too. This is the one to put on your wish list!

IT’S TOTALLY OKAY TO LIVE IN LEGGINGS

mh-legging-blog-v1

There is nothing quite more necessary to a pregnant woman than the legging. And ours are the most needed, because we add the exclusive Secret Fit Belly panel for that growing bump! Or, maybe you like the look and feel of the underbelly, or the new “no belly”. We have them all! You can find fleece-lined ones, solid styles, patterned pairs and more here. Do you like the look above? That’s a new arrival, the Fair Isle No Belly Fleece Maternity Legging, not ironically available just in time for the holidays!

Just In: Sleep Styles To Get You Through The Night

MH NursingSleep Blog Aug v2

For expecting and new moms, getting a good night’s sleep can be a challenge. Chances are your jammies will need a refresh so that you can keep as comfortable as possible all night long. A robe and gown sleep set and pajama separates like maternity sleep pants and camis are night time pieces you won’t want to be without. They are also a must for your hospital bag to keep you comfortable during your stay at any temperature. Plus, with many styles equipped for nursing through convenient clip down features, you will get use out of these staples if you plan to nurse long after baby arrives. For extra support while you sleep, try a seamless sleep bra. All of our stores offer complimentary bra fittings so no need to fret if unsure of your size!

Don’t forget to check out more of our suggestions for your hospital bag here and shop all sleepwear here.
