Your must-have maternity activewear essentials for a stylish and comfortable pregnancy
It’s no secret that staying fit and healthy during pregnancy is good for both you and your baby. Personal Trainer and owner of the MVMT Studio Kari Deane recently shared with The Mama Style that she tells all her prenatal clients that staying active and focusing on a healthy lifestyle doesn’t just help with circulation, blood flow, and nausea but that living a healthy life aids a healthy baby in just about every respect. It’s also no secret that your usual activewear might not cut it as your body grows. Whether you’re an avid runner or devoted yogi, your usual activewear will naturally feel tighter and dig in like it never has before, which is the last thing you need when exercising. Maternity activewear is designed specifically with your comfort —and bump—in mind. From sports bras with extra stretch and nursing access to maternity workout pants that gently hug you in all the right places while still giving you a feeling of support, you’ll finally be able to workout in comfort until the last mile.
When it comes to on trend edits in the activewear space, Soon Maternity’s latest activewear edit is the answer we’ve been looking for. Here are the essentials you'll need for a comfy and super stylish from pregnancy to beyond.
