The maternity top that's saving me from a thousand tiny breakdowns daily

I have discovered maternity top nirvana. Nirvana, I tell you. And I'm pretty sure I will not be taking this thing off until I have my baby.

Finally, I'm spared the thousand daily tug-downs of a too-small top. Finally, the underside of my belly doesn't have to get chilly when I'm out for an autumn walk. Finally, a top that actually fits in those last, gigantic --or maybe that's just me?-- weeks of pregnancy.

 

My near-deliriously happy state is all thanks to a Bashful Bump maternity bodysuit. I know, I know. A bodysuit? How can that be comfortable? But it is. Oh, how it is!

Designed by a mama of course, this bodysuit gives pregnant mamas such a polished look. No long, loose shirts flapping about. Just smooth, clean lines. And --the part that's making me want to stand on a rooftop and shout-- nothing to tug down.

It's got a shelf bra to pull over your breasts, and then the snaps at bottom really aren't as tough as I thought they might be. They're positioned more at the front --like right under your belly-- so you don't have to bend at any funny angles to reach them. Yes it's a little bit more work when you have to pee, like, a hundred times a day, but it's absolutely worth it. The snaps are simple, I promise. And once everything's in place and done-up, you won't feel a thing.

It's available in black or white in four different sleeve-length options and in thong (sex-ay!) or full-seat styles. The site says to stick to your pre-pregnancy size when ordering and I think that's right. Only I carry huge. You know those women who look like they've swallowed a giant watermelon? That's me. So I went up a size and I'm happy.

And we all know a happy third-trimester mama is a very good thing. -Stephanie
