Our Guilty Pleasure

Every woman has a couple guilty pleasures, especially pregnant women. It’s important to indulge in your favorite ice cream or a new pair of maternity jeans or some gossip magazines. At Belly Dance Maternity we like to indulge in some reality TV. Our new favorite reality TV show is Pregnant in Heels on Bravo with Rosie Pope. It’s not hard to understand why, seeing as we’re constantly surrounded by maternity clothes and pregnant women. If you’re pregnant and feel the need to indulge try turning on Pregnant in heels and combining some reality TV therapy with some shopping indulgences by buying a new pair of maternity jeans at Belly Dance Maternity.

Pregnancy: Myth vs Truth

While it is true that most women experience increased acne during pregnancy, one myth we are here to bust is that the appearance of this acne means you are having a girl. There is no medical proof linking the two together. We love the sound of these myths because we get to add meaning to an otherwise biological phenomenon. One thing is certain, that while we can’t determine the gender of our babies based on the condition of our skin, we can pamper and nourish our skin by using excellent pregancy safe products such as Belli Acne Cleansing Facial Wash or Organic Fruit Face Wash by Novena.  

Be sure to check out our entire selection of skincare brands and products.

Pregnancy and Newborn

Check out one of our hip and stylish holiday dresses that made the cover of Pregnancy and Newborn! This More of Me Favorite Shirtdress is perfect for a holiday party, shower, work or a night out on the town. Pair it with black opaque maternity tights and sport the stylish red patent leather belt or leave it off. You’ll love this versatile maternity dress!
