I’m 10 weeks pregnant with my first, I’m just wondering what pregnancy items you found really useful ?

I honestly don't think I have bought anything other than vitamins and maternity tights. I'm 28 weeks pregnant with my second and a bit uncomfortable but there isn't really anything that is going to change that for me!

@Elliejellie firstly congratulations, how exciting!! The only thing I would say is I found maternity pillows SO useful! Although they can be expensive so I brought two L shaped pillows instead to use which were about £7 each they help with comfort at night when you get bigger and especially in your 3rd trimester! I wish I brought them sooner x

Another one for maternity pillow! I got it early in the 1st trimester but its really come into its own in the latter end of the 2nd, and the 3rd trimester. I cant sleep without it.

Also, get comfy pj bottoms/trousers that button up. That way when you grow you can un-do a button and stay comfy. Ive also got a massive pair of mens jogging bottoms. So comfy.

oh, also big knickers. People always say that you need big pants after birth, but ive found my thighs and bum have puffed a load. I went to Sainsburys yesterday and got some massive knickers. Bliss.
