Coleen Rooney stocks up on maternity wear

Coleen Rooney is no stranger to maternity clothes and nursing wear. The 26-year-old gave birth to her first child with footballer hubby Wayne in November 2009 and she certainly made sure she looked the part in the run-up to the birth and afterwards.

The fashionista loves to look her best and she made a big effort to ensure her image didn’t slide as she entered motherhood.

Latest shopping trip

She is expecting her second child in May next year and it seems she’s keen to stock up on new garments ASAP.

According to a report in the Daily Mail, the WAG has been out and about in search of more fashion items. It featured snaps of her wearing a fluffy tunic, leather jacket, leggings and mid-calf boots on a trip around London and she was carrying a number of shopping bags.

Easier second time round

She might find it easier to shop for maternity clothes and nursing wear this time round. When women go through their first pregnancies, they can find it hard to predict how quickly and dramatically their bodies will change shape.

So, rather than purchasing lots of items in advance, they often have to buy in bits and pieces as the months go by.

Full of energy

It seems Coleen’s energy levels haven’t been affected by her pregnancy. She managed to lug around her purchases without assistance. About this, the publication said: “[She] didn’t appear to be bothered by the heavy load and carried the three large carrier bags without the help of an aide.”

The news source added: “Earlier in the day, Coleen was spotted in a different outfit running errands, suggesting she isn’t letting pregnancy slow her down.”

Enjoying family life

Meanwhile, the Rooneys appear to be enjoying family life. Following Wayne’s recent England World Cup qualifying match against San Marino at Wembley Stadium, he, Coleen and son Kai stayed on in London to take in the sights and sounds.

During their mini-break, they managed to fit in a trip to Buckingham Palace, a lavish meal at Chinese restaurant Hakkasan, a shopping excursion to Harrod’s and they saw the West End production of Shrek: The Musical.

Thrilled

Also, writing on her Twitter page recently, Coleen noted the trio are excited to be expecting a new family member.

She said: “A few people guessed, so news is out ha!! Me, Wayne and Kai are thrilled that we are expecting a new addition to our family around May time x.” She added: “It’s still only early but bursting with excitement! Also wanted the news to come from us, before anyone else!”

Why You Need Beautiful Maternity Wear

Just because you are pregnant does not mean that you want to sacrifice your style. In fact, now more than ever you want to look your best to keep your spirits up as your body goes through some huge changes. By purchasing some flattering and comfortable maternity wear, this becomes possible.

Whether it's about looking good for you or him, there are many reasons for buying some maternity clothes whilst you are pregnant, or indeed after your pregnancy. Chances are, you're a bit apprehensive about the changes that your body is going through. This is perfectly natural, and it is normal for your confidence to lapse during and after your pregnancy, especially when your body has altered. To beat the hormonal blues, treating yourself to clothes that are designed precisely for the shape your body is in is ideal. Instead of being regretful about not being able to squeeze into jeans that fit you some months ago, buying maternity wear can help you accept that your body's condition is purely natural.

If you're a lady into fashion, it can make you feel a little down in the dumps when you ponder those dreadfully old-fashioned, floral-patterned dresses traditionally worn by pregnant mums. However, the selection available here at Bella Mama takes a step out of the old and into the new; we make it possible for you to still look fashionable when you're expecting, so why not browse through our selection?
