Everything a new mum needs to know...

You will now just be starting to pop out of your regular clothing. You may want to consider a Belly Belt, Belly Slide and Belly Tube to extend the life of your regular gear.

4 Months
By now you will need some basic maternity items. We suggest pieces that can take you from the home or office, to glamour girl!
· 1 pair Basic Back Pants- choose a shape to suit your body shape such as wide leg or a flattering bootleg.
· 1 pair Jeans. You can't go wrong with a good cut jean.
· A Little Black Dress. A versatile LBD (such as our six way maternity dress) can be worn for day or accessorised for night.
· 2 Basic Tops- Select a versatile cut such as a wrap, v-neck or round neck tee. Wraps and Crossovers can also double as breastfeeding tops and can be worn after your baby is born.
· 1 Basic Skirt. A good cut such as our Basic Skirt can be worn either long or short and can take you from day to evening.
· Working mums need to add some corporate tops such as a white shirt that can be worn with jeans or black pants. Belly Button has a great selection of corporate wear.
