Everyday Carry: New-mama-to-be, congrats on your pregnancy!

Swell bottle in Stingray

Hydration is really important during this time. I carried my Swell bottle at all times to make sure I was hydrating baby and me.

Frye Annie Oxford

New pregnancy must-have: stylish flats that will last you throughout your pregnancy and beyond. I admit that I held on to my work stilettos a little bit too long – life would’ve been so much easier (and comfortable) if I just bought a kick-ass pair of flats to begin with.

Leahco Snoogle Body Pillow 

I hummed and hawed about getting a body pillow. Looking back, I would get it as early as possible. I waited as long as I could before I finally broke down, and it was amazing! It provided many hours of comfort and doubled as a breastfeeding pillow.

Yumi Kim Woodstock Maxi

Not quite ready for pregnancy clothes, but want something that is a bit more flowy (aka forgiving)? Try this Yumi Kim maxi. It is super elegant and oh-so-flattering.

Belly Band

The Belly Band will allow you to wear your current wardrobe as long as possible. I found this especially useful for work pants and jeans.
