Expecting Soon? Stay Fit & Healthy In These Cute Maternity Activewear Picks

Stylish workout gear for your team of two

Good news, mums-to-be! Did you know that you can continue to keep an active lifestyle even when you’re expecting? In fact, continuing to exercise (more cautiously, of course) even during your pregnancy helps prevent posture issues and feelings of fatigue that become increasingly present during the later stages of the pregnancy. This applies whether or not you were leading an active lifestyle prior to getting a bun in the oven.

But if you’re feeling a bit ‘meh’ about the prospect of breaking some sweat especially when you’re showing, here’s a little motivation: cute maternity activewear. Here’s where to get some.

adidas’s maternity collection

Freshly launched by the sports brand, adidas’ maternity collection is created to be worn “throughout pregnancy and into the postpartum period.” The line consists of tank tops, leggings, sports bras, and more that are made from “lightweight, high-stretch fabric” to ensure mamas will be comfortable to go out and about — or just lounge around — throughout the day while wearing the pieces.

Which one to get: The adidas Aeroready Designed To Move Sport Tank Top comes in an array of fun yet still neutral colours for you to mix and match.

ASOS Maternity

ASOS has a huge maternity collection fit for almost any mood and occasion, so it comes as no surprise that they have something for active mums as well. And when we say something, we mean A LOT.

Perfect for mums who love to be spoiled for choice (seriously though, who isn’t?), the colourways per piece from this collection are plenty. There are neutrals, pastels, and even bold colours, some pieces even have print or design options, including macrame side-cuts or halter-detailing.

Which one to get: We have our eyes on the ASOS 4505 Maternity yoga leggings because of its high-stretch bodycon fit and eye-catching metallic colour. Aside from that, you can also pick up training bras, nursing bras, joggers, yoga leggings, and even activewear sets from ASOS Maternity —all of which are fit for working out while keeping your team of two comfortable and well-supported.

H&M MAMA Maternity Collection

If you loved shopping at H&M during your pre-pregnancy period, then you’ll be happy to know that they also have a MAMA collection for the mum-to-be stage in your life. Aside from comfort and functionality, the pieces in the collection are made from “fast-drying functional fabric that keeps you dry and cool” while you exercise. Some of the pieces also include fabric made from recycled materials, following H&M’s sustainability initiative ‘Conscious’.

Which one to get: Choose from leggings, tops, and even nursing sports bras that will support your every move, while still looking fabulous. Our personal fave is the H&M MAMA Sports Tights because of its gradient design that adds a hint of fun to any neutral sports outfit.
