Loungewear during pregnancy and breastfeeding - What do I have to consider?

A lot changes when you're pregnant. Suddenly, you find yourself thinking about questions you hardly ever considered before: What baby essentials do you really need? What should the nursery look like? And what clothes will make this special time as comfortable as possible?

Especially during pregnancy and in the early days with a newborn, many women want clothing that’s comfortable, feels nice against the skin, and offers plenty of freedom of movement. High-quality loungewear can be a wonderful choice—not just at home, but also when you’re out and about

Look for high-quality materials

During pregnancy, how you feel about your body often changes. This makes it all the more important to wear clothes made from comfortable materials.

We use only 100% Italian merino wool for our loungewear. Merino wool is exceptionally soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating. It absorbs moisture and ensures a comfortable fit—qualities that many women appreciate, especially during pregnancy.

Our merino yarn is also certified by Oeko-Tex to be free of harmful substances and is specially treated for machine washing. This makes everyday life easier when clothes need to be washed more often.

Knit clothing fits comfortably

A major advantage of knitted loungewear is its natural elasticity.

Thanks to its knitted texture, the fabric comfortably conforms to the body’s movements and remains very comfortable to wear even as the baby bump grows.

Of course, loungewear isn't a substitute for specialized maternity wear. However, many of our customers especially love wearing our styles during pregnancy because they have a soft drape and offer plenty of freedom of movement.

The Right Fit

Depending on the stage of pregnancy, different styles can be particularly comfortable.

If you prefer wide-leg pants, you'll find what you're looking for in our Bailey Pants with a straight leg.

For the upper body, loose-fitting sweaters like our Bailey Sweater, whose generous fit leaves plenty of room for your growing baby bump.

If you prefer to layer your outfits, you can wear a lightweight top with a cardigan—for example, our Blossom Top paired with the Blossom Cardigan.

For breastfeeding, many customers recommend loose-fitting tops like our Elfie top or the Fay Sweater, which are especially comfortable to wear.

A great companion even after childbirth

The first few weeks with a baby are often wonderful—and at the same time very intense. Comfortable clothing makes everyday life easier during this special time.

Loungewear offers freedom of movement, feels comfortable against the skin, and is perfect for a wide range of situations—from breastfeeding to going for a walk to relaxing at home.

That's why many women continue to wear their favorite pieces long after pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Our Recommendations

For Pregnancy

For expectant mothers, we especially recommend our knitted merino set Bailey Sweater & Bailey Pants. The loose fit offers great comfort and is a comfortable choice for many women throughout their pregnancy.

For breastfeeding

For the postpartum period, we recommend our set Fay Sweater & Bailey Pants. Loose-fitting tops are incredibly versatile and ensure comfort for everyday wear.

We wish you a wonderful pregnancy, a relaxing time getting to know your baby, and many cozy, comforting moments.
