A gift card for maternity, breastfeeding and postpartum clothes is a great gift for a new mom for many reasons:
Practicality: Maternity and breastfeeding clothes are specifically designed to accommodate the changing body of a pregnant woman and make breastfeeding easier and more discreet. Cherry Melon clothing features stretchy fabrics, adjustable waistbands, and discreet access for breastfeeding and pumping, making them practical and comfortable for a new mom.
Personalization: Pregnancy and postpartum experiences can vary greatly among women. A gift card allows the new mama to choose clothing items that suit her personal style, preferences, and comfort needs. This ensures that she gets something she will actually use and love.
Enjoyable Shopping Experience: A gift card provides her with the opportunity to enjoy the shopping experience herself. Exploring the various collections, different styles, and selecting items that make her feel comfortable and confident is a positive and enjoyable experience. It allows her to take a break from the demands of new motherhood and indulge in a self-care moment. A good old shopping spree adds a touch of fun to the journey of preparing for and rolling with the changes in her life.
Changing Sizes: During pregnancy and the postpartum period, a woman's body undergoes significant changes. Having a gift card allows the new mom to shop for clothes as her body transitions through different sizes. This flexibility is especially valuable during a time when a woman may not be sure how her body will change or how quickly.
Empowerment: Shopping for maternity and breastfeeding clothes can be a positive and empowering experience for a new mom. It allows her to focus on herself, her comfort, and her style during a period when much attention may be directed towards the baby.
Encouragement for Self-Care: A gift card for maternity and breastfeeding clothes can be seen as an encouragement for the new mama to take care of herself. It sends the message that her comfort and well-being are important, promoting a positive attitude towards self-care during a time when she may be adjusting to the demands of motherhood.
Long-Term Use: Maternity and breastfeeding clothes are designed to be worn during different stages of pregnancy and postpartum. Cherry Melon flexible fits mean that she can continue to wear these clothes long after baby is born. This makes a gift card for such clothes a thoughtful and long-lasting present.
In summary, a gift card for maternity, breastfeeding and postpartum clothing is a practical, personalized, and empowering gift that allows the mama to choose items that suit her changing needs and style preferences. It reflects consideration for her comfort and well-being during a transformative period in her life.
What size maternity clothes should I buy?
Maternity clothing sizes work the same as regular ones do, meaning, you're the same size in maternity clothes that you are in regular clothes.
If you normally wear a size medium, you'll be a maternity medium, too. If you buy a medium in the first trimester, that same medium will be a loyal companion all throughout your pregnancy (and beyond)! Cherry Melon clothing accommodates not only your growing belly and breasts but caters for normal weight gain too.
If this is your first pregnancy, it's nearly impossible to figure out how your body will change as your pregnancy progresses. As a rule of thumb, we suggest that you stick to your pre-pregnancy size and do not 'size up'. Sizing up may lead to ill-fitting tops and pants being too big, which gives you that "dropped crotch" or "slipping down" feeling. But, everyone is different and it's important to get what's comfortable.
We suggest buying a size up if (a) you have a very large bust (normal preggie growth excluded); (b) you feel like you have gained extra weight (above the normal weight gain range); (c) you're having twins or triplets.
