Choosing Maternity T Shirts
Choosing Your Maternity T Shirts
Now that you’re pregnant and in need of some comfortable and casual clothing, here are a few tips on choosing the right style and fit in your maternity t shirts.
Maternity T Shirts Style and Cut
Maternity T shirts are not just shirts in Large and X-Large. Instead they are specifically designed to fit the pregnant body by having a maternity cut. A maternity cut means the T shirt is cut to fit your pre-pregnant body size but allows for room to grow in specific areas like the belly and chest.
This maternity cut is most important. Be sure that when you buy your maternity T shirt that you are indeed getting a true maternity cut shirt and not just a large regular t shirt. A true maternity T shirt will have more material in the front of the shirt and will flare out towards the bottom with a bit more length in the front than in the back which will allow for an even hemline when the shirt goes over the bump in the belly area.
Maternity T Shirts Fabric
Stay away from synthetic and instead choose natural, breathable fabrics for you Maternity T Shirts. Maternity tees should be made of breathable and natural fabrics. T shirts are made for comfort and if you’re wearing one made of something other than at least 90% cotton, then you’re not going to be comfortable.
Maternity T Shirts Quality and Sizing
Quality is what determines the look, feel and lasting power of your maternity T shirt.
Sizing of true maternity t shirts in a true maternity cut allow the wearer to purchase the same size as their pre-pregnant size. This should only vary if you gain more than 30 pounds during your pregnancy or if you’re carrying multiples. If this is the case, or a size larger. Avoid “one size fits all” maternity t shirts as these shirts are most likely not true maternity cut t shirts.
