A great, easy prenatal option without artificial colorants or synthetic fillers. It may be helpful to start your prenatal up to 6 months before you conceive and to stay on it for as long as you're breastfeeding.

This is another option if you're interested in extra clean, bioavailable and whole food ingredients.

These apps are all pretty cheesy but helpful to have to get a sense of what's happening with your body and baby throughout your pregnancy.

A calm, non-judgmental guide that holds your hand through each stage of pregnancy and birth.

This book cuts through the opinions and unsolicited advice to provide a data-driven approach to decision making during pregnancy (i.e. coffee, sushi, wine etc).

I had terrible nausea with both of my pregnancies and have tried everything. Nothing made it go away but these seemed to make the most difference of all the herbal things I tried.

Things that used to smell good to you may smell intolerable during your pregnancy. This body wash is a great solution for that.    

Doen is a beautifully made brand that has a great edit of pregnancy and nursing friendly options.  

This brand makes my favorite bras for pregnancy and postpartum.

Storq is a great option for cozy, casual everyday clothes. I spent a lot of days in leggings and this button-up (which will translate for breastfeeding too).  

Maternity leggings are one of those staples you'll inevitably live in once your belly starts to grow (happens at different times for everyone). I've tried too many brands and these ones are a favorite tied with these ones from Kindred Bravely.  

One of the herbs I learned about in Nurture.  Loved the taste too.

A great, pure option to prevent stretch marks with a higher concentration of shea butter than most of what's out there.

An oil I found during my second pregnancy that I've really liked.

This became a relaxing post-shower ritual for me, especially in the third trimester when applying oils and butters everyday felt harder.

You'll likely want to edit your skincare routine once you're pregnant. This cleanser is gentle and soothing but still feels really cleansing. 

This is a great replacement for chemical based exfoliating products I used pre-pregnancy. I use this mask about once a week for a deep clean.

Helpful to have scent optionality.

Another clean skincare product I found once I was pregnant.

My biggest splurge that I use and love everyday. This is also something I feel comfortable using when breastfeeding and when your baby inevitably starts licking your face :)

You need to mix this with some kind of oil or liquid to apply. I use this mixed into my Vintner's Daughter several times a week.

Ilia is a great overall brand for non-toxic, super clean makeup. We rounded up our favorite products here. 

I found this registry site to be the most flexible. You can easily add products from different stores, create group gifts and more. 

My favorite third trimester book to prepare for recovery and postpartum.

I've lived in these during my pregnancy. Also great that they will translate for breastfeeding.

Another pair that I loved. I sized up in these.

A must have to give you comfort while sleeping.

Aviva Romm is one of my favorite health resources. She does an especially great job of bridging the worlds of modern medicine and midwifery wisdom. I've learned so much from her.  

Another pregnancy and birth learning resource I would recommend.

These kits will give you a sense of what you want to bring to the hospital or stock at home for your postpartum recovery. You can also explore our full hospital bag and postpartum recovery checklists here.
