Lingerie UK – For pregnant women

Maternity lingerie is designed to give pregnant women more support but still make them look and feel good.

Women's breasts increase in size when they are pregnant, and after they have given birth, so expect to go up a few sizes. Maternity bras that stretch to fit your changing shape and give more support are available while at the same time looking sexy.. Bras come in a variety of colours, even animal print, and you can buy pants to match. Nursing bras vary in style and feature drop cups or zip cups for easy access for breast-feeding. Breast pads to insert into the bra to absorb excess milk and prevent staining are available. You can also buy bra extenders to allow you to adjust your bra as you grow.

Maternity lingerie is sexier and has come a long way over the years to give women underwear which is functional, yet fashionable and stylish.

Knickers that stretch through your pregnancy means you don't have to keep buying new underwear. Knickers come in all different styles so those who prefer thongs can continue to wear them during pregnancy. There are many low-slung pants on the market which will fit well before, during and after pregnancy or briefs which fit over the bump. Support belts sit under the stomach and help take strain off the back.

It’s not easy on your body becoming a mother – in fact it’s one thing after another. There’s the sickness, the water retention, the backache, the growing out of your clothes, the strange cravings. Then there’s the birth – ow. Then there’s the long journey back to a pre-baby body as the uterus and abdominal muscles begin to shrink. The least you deserve is some nice maternity lingerie. But, more than any other kind of underwear, it doesn’t just serve a decorative purpose.

Support is seriously important in helping to avoid long-term back trouble, both before the birth and after, when your muscles are weak. Pre and post-natal briefs and belts range from under-the-bump to full support, depending on what you find most comfortable, while bras can be front or back opening and go up to cup size L (at Bravissimo, the specialist plus-size company).

You don’t have to skimp on style either as an expectant or recent mother. Quite a few lingerie makers now offer maternity wear, including Elle MacPherson’s Intimates. Elle’s Maternelle range (she, incidentally or not, is the mother of a young child) includes pretty pre-natal thongs and non-underwired drop-cup nursing bra, although they don’t go up to particularly large sizes.

Manufacturers catering for larger sizes include Berlei and Royce (up to L). Anita make extra-comfortable seam-free cups. Bravado’s cotton crop top will continue to fit as your size changes and is good for pre-and post-natal wear. Gap’s non-maternity crop top is also a popular choice. www.duematernity.com has detailed advice on choosing maternity wear and other pregnancy-related issues as well as some nice maternity lingerie from designers including Bravado and Japanese Weekend.
