You are at the homestretch! How can you stay looking and feeling great when you can’t even see your feet? Follow our tips to help you look great as you cross the finish line.

Do buy long empire-waist maxi dresses that can be worn no and after baby is born.

Don’t wear oversized clothes. They will only make you look bigger than you really are. Unless you are lounging around the house, stay away from your husband’s closet!

Do wear clothes that gently hug your bump. Shirts with a gathered hem below your below or a colorful wrap dress will accentuate your curves.

Don’t worry if your feet don’t fit into your shoes. Many women find their foot size increases 1/2 size during pregnancy! Most of it is associated with swelling, however some of it is caused by joint laxity which causes your feet to spread. Wear flip-flops or buy an inexpensive pair of shoes until you know how your feet will respond.
