Part 1 of a 9 part series on my most used products during my third pregnancy. The majority of my pregnancy took place in the hellish temperatures of summer, but I knew I would need both shorts and leggings. I already have two kids to chase after and work from home, so comfort meant way more than style.
For your reference, I am 5’4″, pre-pregnancy weight 180 lbs. At the time of this video, I’m 184 lbs at 38 weeks pregnant. Everything fit perfectly throughout my entire pregnancy.

Amposh Maternity Shorts
I bought the Amposh shorts from Amazon in multiple colors. I love how they keep my belly covered. They did rise up on the biker shorts part some, but not enough to make me not want to buy them again.
These shorts have been through multiple washes and have had no peeling or fabric issues.
Buttergene Maternity Leggings
These Buttergene leggings are so buttery soft. These will be my postpartum pants as well this fall. At 5’4″, I did have to roll up the ankle on these.
They have also been through multiple washes and have not torn, formed any holes, and they haven’t pilled. They do not have pockets. The fabric is not shiny. I absolutely love these.
