Maternity wear

23 Mai Paris 's maternity clothing is designed to accompany you throughout the entire period surrounding childbirth: the end of pregnancy, your stay in the maternity ward, and then breastfeeding. Thanks to their double zipper openings, the same garment can be worn both before and after childbirth. Approximately 250 styles, ranging from €20 to €86.

What is maternity clothing?

It's a garment that's flexible enough to accommodate a rounded belly and practical enough for breastfeeding later on. Ours feature two side zippers that are invisible when closed.

You wear them during the final stages of pregnancy, in the maternity ward, and then throughout the breastfeeding period, without having to buy new clothes at each stage.

What kinds of coins can you find?

• maternity T-shirts—solid-color, printed, or customizable;
• sweaters and sweatshirts, for winter;
• maternity dresses, some of which are suitable for pregnancy;
• maternity pajamas and nightgowns.

What should you pack in your hospital bag?

For Mom: two or three zip-up tops, pajamas or a nightgown, comfortable underwear, and an outfit for going out. For the baby: onesies, a romper, and a swaddle blanket. To pack your bag, read our article on packing a hospital bag for winter.

How does the opening work?

After giving birth, you unzip the side on the feeding side, allowing your baby to latch on, while the garment stays in place. During pregnancy, the zippers stay closed and you hardly notice them.

What size should I choose?

Choose your usual pre-pregnancy size or the next size up for late pregnancy and the postpartum period. Some styles run small—this is noted in the product description. Returns are accepted only for refunds; exchanges are not available.

Can you wear them after breastfeeding?

Yes. With the zippers closed, these are classic pieces of clothing that you'll keep long after weaning. They also make a lovely gift for an expectant or new mom.

How do you care for these clothes?

Wash them at 30 °C on the delicate cycle, inside out and with the zippers closed. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to dry. Specific instructions are listed on each product page.

How long does it take for the clothing to be shipped?

Clothing is shipped within 48 business hours. For items with custom embroidery, please allow up to about eight business days.

What is the return policy?

You have 14 days after receipt to request a refund for an item that does not meet your expectations; exchanges are not permitted. Personalized items with embroidery cannot be returned or refunded. Please contact our customer service team in advance at bonjour@23maiparis.com.
