Comfortable Motherhood Is Not a Myth Anymore
Motherhood, as beautiful a feeling it is, it comes with its own set of inconveniences. Especially to a new mother, the feeling and the experience could be overwhelming, and it gets uncomfortable by the day. There are the days when a new mother does not even have the freedom to sleep in the position of her choice! A large part of motherhood includes stepping out of one’s own comfort zone.

Not being able to fit into the same set of dresses and underwear could be even frustrating at times. And for all these reasons of discomfort, Zivame has curated a collection of maternity underwear.

What to look for when buying maternity panties?
Zivame understands that moms-to-be need extra love, care, and attention, and our pregnancy panties are crafted likewise. While shopping for maternity underwear online, here are a few things you must keep in mind.
Right size
As selecting the correct size remains a challenge while shopping for maternity panties online in India, you can use some calculation techniques. Consider the weight you have put on to date and calculate your potential weight gain in the coming weeks. This will help you analyse the size. You can also opt for a larger size for the comfort quotient.
Waist rise
A few different waist rise styles of maternity panties to choose from are:
- Above-the-waist: These maternity panties are high-waisted and cover your bump entirely. They’re more supportive and comfortable than the lower-cut designs.
- Below-the-waist: These low-cut pregnancy panties rest below your belly. This is an excellent choice during the summer months.
- Mid-waist: The mid-waist maternity panties sit right in the middle of your belly. Anyone opting for a mid-waist pattern must carefully analyse the stretchiness of the waistband as it’ll run along your belly.
Coverage
Pregnant women need comfortable maternity panties that can provide a tucked-in feeling along with proper support and coverage. You can opt for high waist pregnancy panties; they are ideal for every weather condition and make excellent everyday wear.
Fabric
Like period panties, pregnancy panties are also made with materials that feel smooth and soft against your skin. However, cotton and other breathable fabrics remain the standard choice for maternity panties. Cotton doesn't allow heat build-up, and it wicks away moisture quickly, keeping you cool all the time.
Durability
Durability, too, is an important aspect to consider while buying maternity panties. To ensure a durable pregnancy panty check the material and stretchability. Investing in durable pregnancy panties will end the hassle of buying them repeatedly.
What is the right time to wear maternity panties?
Each woman is different, as is each pregnancy. While one sees a surge in their weight right from the beginning of pregnancy, the other might put on weight only in the last few months. Thus, there is no fixed duration to switch to maternity panties! You must pay attention to your body. When the discomfort starts to set in, know that it’s time to ditch your regular panties. Typically, it is best to make a transition to maternity panties with the start of your second trimester (Week 14) when you feel there is a need for more coverage.

FAQS on Maternity Panties
- What kind of panties should one wear during pregnancy?
When buying pregnancy panties, you need to consider the first few months differently from the last trimester. Firstly, choose a maternity panty that’s breathable, soft, and comfortable, not anything too ‘grabby’ in the crotch. Since your bump and hips will grow during pregnancy, it is best to choose stretchy material to keep your hips and waist from feeling constrained. Plus, to prevent infection and irritation, which are common during this period, consider choosing cotton and anti-bacterial material. Avoid maternity briefs that tighten and compress the bump area or roll up oddly as it will cause you all kinds of discomfort and pain. High rise maternity panties or hipster panties that provide complete hip coverage and less pressure around the baby bump are ideal for the final trimesters of pregnancy. Find dozens of pregnancy panties online, from under-belly to over-the-bump designs, for keeping you comfortable during your pregnancy.
- When should one start wearing maternity panties?
Everyone’s pregnancy is different, so it is entirely up to you when you want to start wearing a maternity panty. Some pregnant women tend to gain a lot of weight right from the first trimester of their pregnancy, while others start to put on pounds only in the second half of their pregnancy. Typically, most pregnant women switch to maternity briefs when they begin to feel uncomfortable in their regular panties. That said, your pre-pregnancy body type or shape, the growing size of the uterus, and your pregnancy weight gain are pretty good indicators of how soon you will need to switch to pregnancy panties (or not). Typically, it is a good idea to invest in a maternity panty as you are entering week 14 (second trimester) so that you are ready when you need it.
- Are maternity panties necessary?
The goal of maternity panties is to offer optimum support and comfort to pregnant women. Keeping the pregnant body in mind, they are usually made using higher levels of cotton and soft elastic coverage to allow better comfort and stretch and reduce pressure on the pelvic muscles. Most women feel warmer than usual during pregnancy, so regular low-cut panties or thongs, which are often made using mixes of polyester and viscose, may cause discomfort and leave you feeling clammy. While you may still fit into your regular panties, technically, they might be too uncomfortable or snug for your baby bump and overall body. Therefore, your body needs something more comfortable and dependable to accommodate your growing baby bump. Moreover, having a few pairs of pregnancy panties on hand can come in handy during the postpartum recovery period.
- How many pairs of maternity underwear should one own?
The best way to figure out the answer to this question is to track how many pairs of regular panties you go through in a week before you buy pregnancy panties. During pregnancy, don’t restrict yourself to just a few pairs of maternity panties. The reason is that you may feel uncomfortable due to vaginal discharge or sweat. Secondly, as your belly grows, you will need a different shape or size of maternity panty. Also, you will still be wearing maternity panties during the postpartum recovery period.
