dress, jumpsuit, dress

How is it already May? I have a feeling this year is going to go by even faster than any others. I’ve decided Spring is the best time to have a baby. The weather is pleasant and you still have a few months before swimsuit season. Win win. That being said, after I had Wilder I realized I needed some new clothes to get me through spring in the postpartum phase.

Maxi dresses

I love a maxi dress as much as the next person but I’m pretty picky about them. Too much material makes you look like you’re wearing a mumu. Which actually does the opposite of what you want. Here are a few I’m loving right now.

Button front clothes

I mentioned this in a previous post but anything with buttons in the front is genius for breastfeeding. I’m particularly loving these tops, this short sleeve top and this cute striped dress.

High-waisted jeans

OK, I’m actually not back in my favorite high-waisted jeans just yet but a girl can dream. I love this pair… maybe the item of clothing I missed the most when I was pregnant. Hopefully I’ll be back in them soon. In the meantime I’m loving these high-waisted jeans. I’ve had them forever and was even able to wear them a bit when I was pregnant (both with and without the bellyband). They’re super stretchy, flattering and just work.

Shift dresses

Another perk to buying regular clothing when you’re pregnant is that you can wear it after you have the baby too. I wore this shift dress to Crosby’s Birthday party at 36 weeks and am loving the more relaxed fit now too.
