Becoming a mum is one of the most beautiful yet overwhelming
experiences in life. Between sleepless nights, endless diaper changes, and
figuring out how to soothe a crying baby, it’s easy to lose sight of yourself.
So many of us are told that motherhood is pure joy (and it is), but no one
prepares us for the moments when we look in the mirror and don’t recognize
ourselves anymore.
The truth is, adjusting to your new role as a mother is just
as much about caring for yourself as it is about caring for your little one. I
know how cliché it sounds, but our mental health and well-being matter. And one
of the simplest yet most effective ways to feel better is through how you
dress. Finding clothing that makes you feel like YOU again — comfortable,
stylish, and confident — can be a game-changer.
The Things I Wish I’d Known
1. It’s Okay to Prioritize Yourself
You might feel guilty about spending time or money on yourself after having a
baby, but self-care isn’t selfish. When you feel good in your skin, you show up
as a better, happier version of yourself — for your baby, your partner, and
most importantly, for YOU.
2. Your Body Has Changed — And That’s Okay
It’s tempting to want to “bounce back” immediately, but your body has done
something miraculous. Instead of squeezing into your pre-pregnancy jeans,
embrace comfortable yet stylish options that work for your body now. Give
yourself time to adjust to this new stage instead of focusing on that old
version of you and try to appreciate all the changes your body is still going
through.
3. You Deserve to Feel Good Every Day (Not Just on
Special Occasions)
No rule says mums have to live in oversized T-shirts and leggings that don’t
fit right. You can look put-together even on busy days with just a few
essential pieces — and Glow can help you with that.
How Glow In Style Can Help

with confidence, and your wardrobe plays a huge role in that. You don’t need a

Having your budget and lifestyle in mind, we can curate a Glow Edit Online

time which items to purchase and have an online version of your wardrobe
at your fingertips.
Small Changes, Big Confidence
When you take a few minutes to put on an outfit that makes
you feel good, it sets the tone for your day. Whether it’s a comfy yet chic
jumpsuit, a flowy dress, or a well-fitting pair of jeans, these small wardrobe
choices can lift your mood and boost your confidence.
So to all the new and soon-to-be mums out there: You are
still YOU. Motherhood adds to who you are, it doesn’t take away from it. You
deserve to feel stylish, comfortable, and confident every single day. And at
Glow In Style, we’re here to help you do just that.
You’ve got this, mama!
