Best of Pregnancy Winner for Best Maternity Underwear Brand

And the Winner Is: Kindred Bravely

Comfort is key when you’re pregnant—and you’ll need clothing that conforms and supports your changing body. If your bump has started to expand, you’ve probably already bought the basics: maternity jeans, maternity leggings and a maternity bra to contain that suddenly swelling chest. One essential you may not have yet considered? Maternity underwear.

Yes, it’s not entirely necessary—you could get away with your regular pairs, if they’re low cut and have some give. But when your favorite ones start to feel too snug or begin cutting into your skin, you might want to treat yourself to a pair or two of maternity panties. How are they different? For starters, they’re generally designed to be extra stretchy. And whether you prefer a thong, brief or boyfriend cut, many of Kindred Bravely’s beautifully crafted pregnancy and postpartum panty options are made with elastic waistbands that won’t dig or roll. Try their cotton or cotton-blend styles as well as over- and under-the-bump cuts. You’ll soon see that pregnancy-specific undergarments are not so underrated.

What We Love:

• Seams that suddenly begin to dig in during pregnancy are no fun for anyone. Kindred Braverly’s maternity underwear feature a non-rolling waistband that sits just below your bump or postpartum tummy for optimal comfort

• Made with super-soft cotton, cotton-blend and bamboo materials, each thong or brief is breathable and lightweight

• Many styles are available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate all body types
