As you know, I'm not the biggest fan of pregnancy fashion. So far that worked quite well. I simply converted my own clothes. It is the same with pregnancy oils. I prefer oils where the word gestational oil is not on.
Ok, so what I've really bought in terms of clothing is three pants (pregnancy jeans, a corduroy pants for pregnant women and maternity chinos) and two pregnancy tights.
Everything else I've managed so far. Until now, I can only say, because my stomach grows and grows, felt daily. My gynecologist said: "Everything is normal. Third child, third belly. Everything in the green area. ". But my feeling tells me: "Just before bursting.". But alright, since it's probably my last pregnancy, I try to enjoy it and just pretend it's beautiful. One should enjoy the little things. That would be there: 1. I am ONLY bad in the morning. 2. I only feel very heavy sometimes. 3. My hunger for processed cheese is gone (I could now eat peanut butter all the time). Go then. Oh, and the coat in the picture, is still too. Just like that. So, everything is easy. I'm just pregnant, not ill.
For this, I have found my current favorite outfit.
My outfit for the pregnancy week 21
The skirt is actually a long skirt for non-pregnant and Monki. But now he fits perfectly over his stomach. Underneath I wear pregnancy trousers by bellybutton and along with normal black shirt by COS. The coat is from Ganni and also for non-pregnant women. Among them, I have, because it is so cold, a bolero jacket by H & M. The boots are lined dr. Martens and so nice and warm. The gloves are from Chanel (and not so very warm, unfortunately), the cap is from & other stories and the glasses from Fielmann (actually for zero euros the frame).
Pregnancy oil - body oils in the test
I hate to tell it but pregnancy oils bring nothing, nothing, at least as regards any stretch marks. I've asked again my midwife and the gynecologist because my stomach is already quite large and I'm already afraid of stretch marks, although I've not gotten those in recent pregnancies. Oils, creams, it does not matter. Who has the predisposition to stretch marks (the rupture of the subcutaneous tissue), so a weak connective tissue, which also helps no oil?
But - nevertheless, the oils and creams are not wrong in pregnancy, no, even extremely pleasant. Because of course, the house expands, the stomach grows and it starts to itch. And oil and cream also help against the itching. I find oil better, I'm more of the oil type. It absorbs quickly and feels good.
I have tested the following pregnancy oils and other skin oils or body oils.
Body oil without stripes by bellybutton
This is definitely classic. I used the oil in my first pregnancy almost 8 years ago. It has since been completely reworked, is completely vegan and contains no mineral oils, silicones, dyes or animal raw materials. I think it's good. It smells pleasantly soft and absorbs well. The bottle is also handy. Buy body oil without stripes from bellybutton
Blooming Belly Natural Stretch Oil by Attitude
This is the perfect solution for traveling and traveling. Because nothing is worse than a leaking oil bottle in the bag or in the suitcase. I was in Amsterdam the other day, so I could not take my big oil bottle with me either and I did not want it for fear of it exploding or leaking (my nail polish had leaked out).

Skin Owl Body Oil
OK. this is the luxury priced variant but feels good. The special - the Skin Owl Body Oil does not smell. So, everything you use as perfume afterward does not mix with the smell of oil. I think that's great. I use it especially early after showering. "Pure plant oils and antioxidants support the renewal and rejuvenation process of your skin. Färberdistelöl, apricot kernel oil and jojoba oil nourish the skin and give it the necessary moisture. "Is in the description. It is also vegan, completely vegetable. Price: 67,00 EUR / 237 ml.
Skin oil Almond blossoms Skin type of Kneipp
The skin oil almond blossom skin type is also good. Also completely made of natural ingredients, mainly of course almond oil, with a percentage of argan oil and sunflower oil. I can definitely recommend. There is not pregnancy oil on it, but it does not matter. Price: 5,99 EUR / 100 ml.
