The maternity section at most shops might have you convinced that clothing for mamas-to-be is all about soft cotton tees and sweatpants that are the total opposite of sexy.
We’re here to set the record straight.
Sexy maternity lingerie is definitely a thing.
Being pregnant is incredibly sexy, and with the maternity lingerie, you’ll be able to see it (and feel it), too.
In some ways, getting in the mood while you’re growing a bump is the easiest thing in the world.
Your hormones are on a pretty wild ride, and you might find that your libido is giving you yes signals more than normal.
If that’s the case, enjoy it, mama.
Unless your doctor says otherwise, sex during all three stages of pregnancy is usually totally safe.
But feeling sexy can also be a little tricky.
Your body’s changing, and you might find that your usual underwear or lingerie doesn’t fit as it once did.
Your bra’s underwire might be digging into you a bit, or your breasts might feel pushed or squished in uncomfortable ways.
If that’s the case, it might be time to go shopping. 🛍️
