With pregnancy comes an increase in the metabolic rate resulting in greater heat production. The baby’s metabolic rate generates additional heat. Add to that hormonal fluctuation, which induce hot flushes, and it becomes clear that pregnancy can be an uncomfortable time. Luckily the mother’s body temperature steadily decreases over the course of her pregnancy to prevent her core temperature from rising with the metabolic rate. However, it is preferable to attempt to lessen the effects of hot flushes and changing seasonal temperatures using clothing.
Denim is perfect for pregnancy – it keeps you cool in the summer and warm in the cooler months. Denim also comes in many styles, and can be worn in a lot of different ways. You can dress darker maternity jeans up more, and they are the most versatile maternity fashion staples. We have a range of denim maternity jeans, shorts and shirts to see you through summer. Check out our new denim shorts from Szabo Maternity Wear and the mini denim skirt from Soon Melbourne Maternity Wear.
For work, buy a maternity skirt and pants in stretchy fabric, in neutral tones such as black, grey or brown. See our Szabo Maternity Wear work skirt and tailored maternity pants. A strong coloured maternity top will brighten up your outfit. For your feet, pick a comfortable sling-back pair or an elegant flat in a larger width than usual to let your feet breathe. Don’t forget accessories can add personality to your outfit.
