Pregnancy Essentials for Every Stage
What you reach for during pregnancy can change quite a bit from one trimester to the next. Early on, you might be looking for something to help with morning sickness. Later, a pregnancy pillow or pelvic support can become more useful as your body changes.
The Memo’s range of products for pregnant women in Australia brings these options together, so you can find what fits your stage and routine:
- Start with what you need right now
The first trimester can be a good time to focus on products that fit easily into your day. Pregnancy-safe skincare can keep your usual self-care routine feeling familiar. Dealing with morning sickness? Look for pregnancy vitamins and supplements to help manage those early days.
- Support your growing baby bump
Pregnancy pelvic and back support can provide extra comfort around your growing bump, whether you’re sitting at work or relaxing at home. Look for adjustable designs that can work with your changing body, so you can keep using them as your pregnancy progresses.
- Make sleep more comfortable
A growing bump can make finding a comfortable sleeping position a whole new challenge. Pregnancy pillows are designed to give your bump, hips, back or legs extra cushioning while you sleep, with different shapes offering different types of support.
- Get ready for the final weeks
As your due date gets closer, start gathering the pregnancy products you’ll need for the big day and those first few moments with your newborn. Use our hospital bag checklist to work through what to pack for you, your baby and your support crew, so you know you’ve got the important bits covered.

FAQs
What pregnancy products are actually worth buying?
The most useful pregnancy products are usually the ones that solve a specific everyday need. Pregnancy pillows, morning sickness products, pelvic and back support, and pregnancy-safe skincare are all practical options, depending on what you need.
What pregnancy essentials do I need in the first trimester?
There isn’t a set list you need to buy straight away, as every pregnancy is different. If you’re dealing with morning sickness, products designed to help with it may be useful, while pregnancy-safe skincare can help you keep your usual self-care routine. Pregnancy vitamins and supplements are another option to explore for nutritional support, but check with your doctor or midwife about what’s right for you.
What products can make pregnancy more comfortable as my belly grows?
As your bump grows, you may want extra cushioning and support for sleeping, sitting and getting through the day. A pregnancy pillow can support your bump, hips, back or legs while you sleep, while belly bands can provide extra comfort during everyday activities. Comfortable loungewear can also be a welcome addition as your body changes.
When should I start using a pregnancy pillow?
It really depends on when you start looking for extra comfort in bed. Some mums find a pregnancy pillow helpful early on, while others wait until their bump grows and their usual sleeping position becomes less comfortable.
What can I buy to help me sleep more comfortably during pregnancy?
A pregnancy pillow is a great place to start if you’re looking for extra cushioning in bed. Different shapes offer support in different areas, including your bump, hips, back and legs, so you can choose one based on where you want extra comfort. You may also find that changing your pillow arrangement or sleeping position helps as your body changes.
Which pregnancy products can I continue using after giving birth?
Quite a few pregnancy products can continue to earn their place after your baby arrives. Comfortable loungewear, skincare and some support products can remain useful during postpartum. Pregnancy pillows can also double as feeding pillows, providing a cosy spot to cuddle or feed your baby.
What pregnancy products should I pack for the hospital?
Your hospital bag will depend on your birth plans, personal preferences and what your hospital provides. Think about comfortable clothes, toiletries, feeding supplies and anything that will help you feel more comfortable during your stay. Yo’’ll also want to pack for your baby and support crew, so our hospital bag list is a useful place to work through everything together.
What pregnancy products make a practical gift for an expecting mum?
A good pregnancy gift is something that’s just for her. Cosy loungewear, pregnancy-safe skincare or a pregnancy book can all be lovely options, especially if you know what she’s into. Think of something that gives her a bit of comfort, helps her switch off or simply makes this exciting time feel a little more special.
