Towards the end of your pregnancy, a good bubble bath is a balm for all the little aches and pains you may feel.

Moisturizing cream

The skin stretches in intensive mode towards the end of pregnancy. A good moisturizer is a must to avoid tightness and itching.

Food that makes you happy

There's nothing like a meal that makes you feel good to lift your spirits when the last few weeks of pregnancy are just around the corner.

Compression stockings

If you have a lot of water retention, compression stockings, such as the Supporo brand, can be helpful. However, always check with your doctor or midwife to make sure they are safe to wear.

Comfortable underwear

Comfort is the name of the game in late pregnancy. So choose underwear that you feel comfortable in.

Pregnancy leggings

For anyone who will be experiencing late pregnancy in the fall and winter, having a good pair of pregnancy leggings is a must!

A coat extension

Don't invest in a new coat especially for pregnancy, opt instead for an extension, like those offered by Make My Belly Fit. It's less expensive, it will allow you to wear your regular winter coat at the end of your pregnancy and you will even be able to carry your baby!

A pregnancy pillow

Finding a comfortable sleeping position gets harder and harder as the weeks go by. A good pregnancy pillow is a great item to help ease this discomfort. If you don't want to invest in this item, simply adding regular pillows or cushions may be sufficient.

Ear plugs

Some pregnant people experience insomnia towards the end of their pregnancy... To avoid sudden awakenings, it can be useful to sleep with earplugs and prevent some episodes of insomnia during the night.

Loose-fitting tops

With baby pushing on every organ of the body, it's suggested to opt for loose, comfortable tops.

Snacks

Some people find it hard to eat regular-sized meals towards the end of pregnancy. If this is the case for you, have several good snacks on hand during the day to satisfy your appetite.

Antacids

If you have a lot of reflux, antacids like TUMS can help. Always check with your doctor or midwife before using any such product.

Have a nice water bottle

In late pregnancy, hydration is ultra important, but sometimes the motivation to drink water is not there... In this case, it can be helpful to buy a nice water bottle to motivate you to drink more.
