You experience many changes in your body during pregnancy and adaptations need to be made in your wardrobe to reflect this. Once your tummy starts to grow and your bust begins to swell, you need to find maternity wear that offers comfort and practicality. And the good news is that these days, maternity wear is also stylish!
Having a summer pregnancy throws in some additional elements that are worth considering. Carrying around the extra weight of a baby in the heat of July can be strenuous and you must try and make things as easy for yourself as possible.
Start by dressing yourself in maternity wear that takes into account the sweltering temperatures. The first rule is to wear clothes in breathable fabrics such as100 per cent cotton or linen. Allowing your skin to cool down on a hot summer’s day is essential.
Fortunately, you have a lot of choice when it comes to summer maternity wear choices. At my favourite maternity wear supplier, Vertbaudet, you can keep cool in a pair of cotton poplin shorts, pretty print dresses, all in one short suits in light orange prints or sophisticated linen trousers in a selection of chic shades. Forget the common complaints about maternity wear being dull and plain and discover for yourself the prints, the stripes, the broderie anglaise detailing and the sheer choice at Vertbaudet. All women love fashion and when it comes to their fashion needs they have relied on Vertbaudet to provide them with stylish clothes.
With a summer pregnancy, be clever with the colours you wear. Top of the list for cool comfort is white. A pure cotton poplin blouse in white is a great investment for a hot pregnancy and you can find a beautiful maternity wear example at Vertbaudet with pretty neckline detailing that lifts it above your average white blouse.
Just because you are pregnant doesn’t mean you won’t be needing swimwear. In fact, swimming is one of the most popular ways for pregnant women to take exercise. And what better way to relax on a steamy hot day than to slip into a cool pool?
Maternity swimwear has advanced in recent years and you will discover a huge range especially designed with your new curves in mind. Whether you need a one piece, bikini or tankini set, they are all out there in a million shades and patterns.
Of course we can’t overlook the summer dress. It comes in many different styles but some suit the pregnant silhouette better than others. Empire line dresses that cut in below the bust are a feminine and flattering style that work really well in a summer maternity wardrobe. Also, the fuller maxi dress styles offer room and comfort whilst retaining a fashionable edge. Summer dresses in both these styles can be found at Vertbaudet.
Finally, don’t forget to slip on some 100 per cent cotton underwear to keep cool and comfortable down below. Now all you need is to don a large floppy sunhat, a pair of sunglasses and accessorise with a glass of something cool and refreshing.

I always look for the fabric when choosing my summer maternity wear. I am on my 21 weeks and I am addicted to maternity fashion. I usually buy my clothes in H&M, mothercare.com, and http://www.choo-choo-london.com. I hope you feature their styles and mix and matches here in your blog. Thanks for the tips!
