I’ve always been a bit of a pyjama enthusiast, so when I found out I was expecting my second baby, upgrading my sleepwear quickly became a priority. As a mum to a four-year-old and currently seven months pregnant, I’ve experienced first-hand just how much pregnancy can change the way you sleep. Between fluctuating hormones, a growing bump, overheating, endless trips to the bathroom and the general discomfort that seems to arrive at bedtime, getting comfortable at night can feel like a challenge in itself. As my bump grew, I soon realised I was quite literally bursting out of my usual pyjama sets. Waistbands that once felt soft suddenly dug in, tops rode up over my stomach and nothing seemed to fit quite right anymore. I needed maternity pyjamas that would see me through the rest of pregnancy but also work well once baby arrives, especially for hospital stays and middle-of-the-night feeds if breastfeeding.One thing I quickly noticed is that some maternity-specific pyjamas still lean into the stereotype of looking frumpy or overly “mumsy”. So, I made it my mission to find stylish sets that still felt like me while delivering the comfort I desperately needed. Soft fabrics, practical nursing access and flattering fits all became priorities, but above all else, I wanted sleepwear I actually looked forward to putting on.
