Maternity clothes are essential to keep expectant mothers supported, yet comfortable, throughout every stage of their pregnancy, and even post-partum when nursing their child.
There can be a stereotype around maternity clothes, with some presuming they have to spend the nine months wearing oversized jumpers and joggers, garments with elasticated waistbands, or "frumpy" dresses, which you don't feel look flattering, but that's not true.
