We recommend the Splendid Women's Amber Stripe Crop Cardigan for your first trimester and postpartum wardrobe. During your first trimester, the relaxed fit and soft, ribbed knit will offer comfort and adaptability as your body begins to change without feeling restrictive or signaling pregnancy. The button-front design is also a boon for the postpartum period, providing easy layering and convenient access for nursing if you choose. We find this piece to be a versatile wardrobe staple, perfect for those early days of pregnancy when you want to feel put-together yet comfortable, and equally functional for the demands of new motherhood. While its cropped length, designed to pair with high-waisted bottoms, makes it a stylish choice initially, it will likely become too short to comfortably accommodate a growing bump in your second and third trimesters. However, its continued utility postpartum makes it a valuable addition to your evolving wardrobe.
