If you just welcomed a newborn — congratulations! We could go on and on about the magic of babies, but we want to keep it real for a second about all of the other stuff that comes with being postpartum. The discomfort, the uncertainty in your own body, the lost confidence you might have in your wardrobe. With the holidays coming up, we’re sure you want to feel good, mentally and physically, in your clothes while everyone takes photos of you with your new bundle of joy.
That’s why we’ve picked out 15 perfect pieces for your postpartum holiday outfits — from pieces specifically made to support you and help you recover, to nursing-friendly finds, to flowy tops and dresses you’d wear even if you’d never been pregnant. Shop below!
