What is maternity shapewear?
Maternity shapewear isn’t like normal shapewear, which is intended to create a smoother slimmer silhouette under clothes. These are more technical garments that provide extra support during pregnancy. Maternity Shapewear comes in various styles and products, such as maternity tanks, belly bands and wraps, and leggings, to customize your specific needs and leave you comfortable and confident during your pregnancy.
Can maternity shapewear help boost your confidence?
Absolutely! When you feel good physically, it can make you feel great emotionally. Maternity shapewear provides many benefits to help boost your overall confidence during pregnancy, starting with offering the support you need to relieve discomfort and pain.
That said, it also helps you feel better about how you look, as you adjust to your constantly changing body. Maternity shapewear improves overall posture and shapes your body to give you a smooth silhouette. Continue wearing your shapewear throughout pregnancy and enjoy every moment of your journey with confidence and boosted self-esteem.

Supportive pregnancy leggings are essential as they gently lift your growing belly to alleviate some of the strain caused by the added weight.

Is it OK to wear maternity shapewear every day?
Yes! Maternity shapewear is safe to wear every day. In addition, maternity shapewear provides more benefits than just smoothing and shaping.
It is essential to find shapewear that is comfortable and not too tight. If your shapewear feels uncomfortable and too restrictive, it will not do you or your baby any good and may cause irritation or restrict proper support to your growing belly.
Maternity shapewear should be form-fitting but not restrictive or hard for you to breathe.
Tips for feeling comfortable in shapewear:
- Maternity shapewear should be form fitting but not restrictive
- Focus on choosing shapewear that is customized to your desired wants and needs.
- Shapewear should be functional and comfortable
- Made with breathable fabric
- Offers support for your growing (or shrinking) belly.
