Like it or not, autumn has arrived! The fresh air, changing leaves and cosiness inside make this a magical time. For pregnant women and newborns, it is important to prepare well for the colder months. In this blog post, we share our autumn must-haves and tips for comfortable and warm days with your baby.
1. Warm and soft maternity wear
During autumn, comfort is key, especially when you are pregnant. Opt for garments like maternity jackets, thick leggings and soft jumpers that can accommodate your growing belly and keep you warm at the same time. A few must-haves:
- Maternity coats with room for your belly and possibly an insert for after birth.
- Warm maternity leggings: perfect for under dresses or with a long jumper.
- Soft slippers for at home: comfort and warmth, ideal for those moments of rest.
2. Baby's first autumn wardrobe
For newborns, it is important to keep them warm and comfortable during the cold months. Think layers and materials like wool and cotton that won't irritate their sensitive skin. Some autumn basics for your baby:
- Warm baby suits made of organic cotton or merino wool.
- Cosy sleeping bags: ideal for keeping your baby warm at night without the risk of blankets sliding off.
- Baby hats and mittens: Little babies lose heat quickly through their head and hands. A hat is a must!
3. Walking outside with your baby: The perfect pram for autumn
Even though it is colder, fresh air is still important for you and your baby. A good pushchair for autumn has a rain cover, warm foot bags and large wheels that can easily navigate through leaves and rain. Make sure you are prepared for all weather conditions!
4. Autumn activities for pregnant mothers
Enjoy the season through activities that are not too strenuous but offer fun and relaxation:
- Take a quiet autumn walk in the park and enjoy the fresh air.
- Join pregnancy yoga to keep your body supple.
- Spend cosy time at home preparing a warm baby outfit.
5. Essential autumn products for your baby outfits
There are many products that are specifically useful in autumn and winter. Think moisturisers to prevent dry skin, thermos bottles for hot food on the go and handy slings for when it is too cold for the pram.
