“J” Is For Jugs

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

Continuing our series on pregnancy struggles, we turn our focus to the letter “J” for jugs. Whether or not you plan to breastfeed, your breasts will go through some subtle and some really NOT so subtle changes during pregnancy. Plan to see a big increase in your cup size. And while your partner may be smitten, we classify this as a #PregnancyProblem – especially when it comes to ill-fitting bras and other wardrobe issues.

Did you know that around week 6 of your pregnancy, your nipples may become more prominent? And that is just the tip of the iceberg.  Your breasts are growing because they’re getting ready to nourish your baby. After week 22, your boobs have grown so much that it might be a good idea to get some new bras at this point.  Cake Maternity has you covered, mama. Now you can make this potentially ginormous #PregnancyProblem an ancient “mammory”. (See what we did there?)

Cake-Maternity-has-launched1

Cake Maternity designs supportive and comfortable pregnancy and nursing wear to complement your lifestyle. With an extensive assortment of maternity and nursing bras, Cake has your every need covered – from t-shirt, contour to lace, soft-cup to moulded, sports, comfort to sleep nursing bras. Highly engineered and produced in a wide range of colors, Cake Maternity design for every stage of your journey.

Here new mama and fitness superstar, Christina Vargas, models two pieces that were her favorites during pregnancy from this deluxe maternity brand.

Black Cotton Candy Sleep & Yoga Nursing Bra

Black Cotton Candy Sleep & Yoga Nursing Bra

Made with unique, silky-soft yarn for ultra comfort, the Black Cotton Candy Sleep & Yoga Nursing Bra comes in four easy sizes, as well as fashionable colors and a designer look. It features an innovative low t-back for medium levels of support and fabric moulded cups for smooth seamless comfort.  Once you have the baby, you can use the side sling for discreet feeding & shape and utilize its adjustable hooks & eyes for fitting preference as your breast size changes.

Shake Tankini Set

Shake Tankini Set

This 2-piece tankini with brief is the ultimate summer pregnancy must-have. The soft flexible-wire for shape and support your goods up front and the racer back design provides additional support from behind. The drawstring sides with beads at the ends offer a nice touch for styling and height adjustment. We  also love the beautiful apple green lining that gives a surprise pop of interior color. Moms will appreciate the easy dropdown swimwear clips as well as its UPF50+ UV Protection & chlorine resistant features. Like other Cake Maternity pieces, this suit transitions perfectly from pregnancy to nursing fashion with its supportive side sling.  Boobs really get some “heft” during pregnancy? No worries, the suit is ideal for DD-G cups!

Trend: Versatile Wearables

by Gugu Guru Leave a Comment

We recently did a trend report for Bundle Organics on New Mom Essentials and we called out in that report the almost expectation now that products like nursing covers be multi-functional; doubling as car seat covers, scarves and even swaddles. We started seeing this versatility trend in other categories too from gear to furnishings and clothing. This trend is not only driven by the attraction to smart design but also by practicality; today’s moms are generally looking to reduce waste and their footprint when it comes to consumer goods. Here are some of the top trending Versatile Wearable products plus some of our favorite brands to check out for each:

The Cozy Joey by Mulier NYC

Outerwear
Now moms no longer have to worry about purchasing several different coats for different stages of mommyhood. From pregnancy to babywearing and beyond, maternity apparel brands are now offering outerwear that conforms to a mom’s varying fashion needs. What’s more is that some of these versatile outerwear pieces are multi-seasonal too.

Brands to check out: Mulier NYC (Cozy Joey), The M Coat, Japanese Weekend (Mama Coat)

 

NüRoo Pocket Shirt

NüRoo Pocket Shirt

Kangaroo / Skin-On-Skin Shirts
Day-to-day apparel is also now multi-purpose as we see baby wearing shirts – often described as “Kangaroo” shirts – emerging as a trend in the category.  Moms no longer necessarily need to purchase a wrap style carrier and nursing tops as we’re seeing these two items blending. The bonus is this wearable offers the benefits of both baby wearing and skin-on-skin, such as free hands, increased milk production, promotion of well-being for mama & baby and more.

Brands to check out: NüRoo (Pocket Shirt), Lalabu (Soothe Shirt), Milk & Baby (Kangaroo Care Shirt)  Hint: if you like this trend, be sure to check the details of any brand you’re considering because some of these shirts do not adhere to baby carrying standards. The NüRoo Pocket is one that adheres to sling carrier standards and carries up to 45lbs.

 

Go-Go Babyz Sidekick

Go-Go Babyz Sidekick

Dual-Purpose Diaper Bag
In the past, the overarching trend seemed to be diaper bags that don’t look like diaper bags. That still holds true for many brands in terms of the overall product design strategy (to see some of our favorites from that trend, see our post here). Now diaper bags are combining with other baby gear categories; doubling up as baby carriers, breast pump bags and even bassinets.  We are keeping a close eye on this trend – could there be a stroller diaper bag combo in our future?

Brands: Go-go Babyz (Sidekick), Nurse Purse, 3-In-1 Diaper Bag Bassinet

 

Sunsnapz Blankets

Sunsnapz Blankets

Multi-Functional Nursing Covers
Once nursing covers were no more than privacy covers for moms who planned to breastfeed outside of the home, but these covers now serve more than one purpose (and some serve five or six!) Many of the popular styles double as car seat canopies or even swaddles.

Brands to check out: Sunsnapz, Cover Me Ponchos, Milk Snob, Shuga Bebe Couture

Little Raindrop Designs Mommy & Me Teething Bracelet in Bubble Mint

Teething Jewelry
Where teething jewelry used to be limited to a few brands, this is now a very fast growing category and some brands boast a cult-like following. Just like any statement jewelry line, some of the more popular teething jewelry brands have signature styles or palettes. Many of these baubles are made of baby-safe, non-toxic 100% silicone.

Brands to check out: Chewbeads, Mama & Little, Little Raindrop Design
