Give your belly room to breathe in a summery top you can wear pre and post baby, like this Topshop Maternity Gingham Tie Top ($55). Bonus points for of-the-moment gingham.
Yes, you just had a baby and yes, you can still rock the skirt of the season. The elastic waist of this ASOS Wrap Midi Skirt in Cotton With Ruffle Hem ($40) will be your best friend.
What's white, goes with everything, and unties for easy nursing access? This ASOS Maternity Nursing Tie Side T-Shirt ($40), of course.
Flowy and comfortable with an elasticized waist? Yep, meet the Ramy Brook Hunter Dress ($395), your new go-to.
The perfect suck-you-in layering piece — or just wear it on its own with a skirt or jeans. This Yummie by Heather Thomson Ruby Thong Back Bodysuit ($34) will look sleek and chic and keep your middle totally under control.
Channel your inner Kim K with a long-length denim short. These NYDJ Briella Tummy-Control Cuffed Denim Bermuda Shorts ($69) are an instant tummy toner.
Not only does this H&M MAMA V-neck Nursing Dress ($30) pull aside for breastfeeding, but it's the ideal summer one-and-done piece. Pair it with sneakers or sandals and you're good to go.
Keep the Ripe April Nursing Tunic ($88)
around for when you've got visitors, or you want to look instantly pulled together (or both). It's comfy and crisp, and lets you feed at a moment’s notice.
Never underestimate the power of a great legging. The R Label Everyday Legging ($85) stretches without looking sheer and is elevated enough to go pretty much anywhere.
Red, ruffled, and roomy? This Daisy Street T-Shirt Dress With Frill Sleeves
($24) is basically the dream dress.
Like your old favorite but with more tummy support, the Charter Club Tummy-Control Denim Skirt ($38) will hold it all together. Yes, please.
Easy and breezy with on-trend embroidery, we are totally here for this Free Generation Ladies Woven Cap Sleeve Mult ($55). Try it with a turtleneck and tights for fall and winter!
White jeans are a summer must. These Lee Platinum Label Comfort Fit Nellie Barely Boot Jeans ($39) have a hidden stretch waistband so you can stay in style, comfortably.
This Birds of Paradis Ruffle Cuff Stripe Shirt ($177) has an easy fit and goes with shorts, jeans, or skirts.
When tight pants just aren’t gonna happen, a roomy cropped style like these Laundry by Shelli Segal Pull-On Crepe Culotte Pants ($59) is just what the doctor ordered. You’ll feel like you’re in pajamas all day (#livingthedream).
