Expanding Bellies: Baby Bumps Without the Frump

Pregnancy is often one of the most joyous occasions in a young woman's life.  For sure, there can be morning sickness, swollen ankles, insatiable food cravings, and other inconveniences -- but they all pale in comparison to the reward of welcoming one's own little bundle(s) of joy into the world!  But, let's face it, nine months of an expanding waistline and protruding belly can seriously cramp any woman's sense of personal style -- and petite women face the extra challenge of avoiding the dreaded pregnancy "mumu" in finding clothes that fit.  That's why this post is dedicated to helping expectant mothers (especially fashionable women in their 20s and 30s) look nothing short of amazing in every trimester . . .

In addition to mall staples like A Pea in the Pod, Destination Maternity, and Motherhood Maternity, no pregnancy wardrobe is complete without the following gems:
