Zip Us In Maternity Jacket Expander Panel - Coat Extender to Expand Your own Jacket Through Pregnancy and for Babywearing with a Carrier

Product Information

I got caught in a torrential downpour the other day with it, and my son was warm and dry when we got back to the car. It's also waterproof to help keep you dry on snowy or rainy days, and it can easily be machine washed so you won't have a problem keeping it looking like new.

I also realized that I may be pregnant again in the winter and the thought of wearing the awful, terrible, stupid maternity coat I wore last time makes me shudder, so I made the insert reversible so I can accommodate my baby bump warmly and in style next time.My name is Lindsay and I am a 40-year-old mama of four trying to live an eco-friendly, budget-friendly life! So you can wear it up to your neck as a maternity extension panel and then lower when you are carrying your new baby in a sling or front baby carrier. Pin the strips to each side, making sure that they start and end before the seam allowance we pressed earlier. I used masking tape to mark this as I find my chalk pen doesn’t rub off this canvas as easily as I’d like. The most obvious is the extender panel, which is an insert that zips into your jacket to make it larger, as mentioned previously.

The down and feather fill is warm without being overly bulky or stifling, instead maintaining a lightweight fit. While baby-carrying with a soft front-carrier or sling, the Bellyfit allows you to easily wrap your jacket around you and your baby, keeping your baby closer and warmer while outdoors. While it's obviously great for wearing to accommodate your growing bump, many new moms found it especially comfortable for baby-wearing, due to the flexible fleece. Unzip it, rotate (don’t flip) 180 degrees and zip it up as if for maternity, using the other pair of zippers. This is a great middle-of-the-road coat too as it's warm enough for chilly climates but you won't feel overly bundled up as you can in some puffer jackets.It was a dream she had to share the most unique and beautiful batik prints of Indonesia in a cover up form for women of all shapes and sizes. I would love to be able to wear my daughter this winter in my own coat instead of borrowing my husbands big ugly camping jacket!

The Kokoala works with any coat with a zipper closure, it works to accommodate a baby in a carrier or a pregnant belly, and it’s totally unisex. You will also need two long strips of fabric to act as little mini plackets to separate the two zippers.

It's designed to be roomy all over, especially around your bump, so you can layer a sweater underneath if you want to. It's soft to the touch and easy to move in, and many moms like that it's great for day-to-day wear, as well as outdoor activities like trips to the park or zoo.

Moms-to-be appreciated how much space this puffer has in the torso, with some not needing to use the extender for quite a while. Take the other half of that zipper and pin it in the same fashion to the other strip then pin in the same fashion. In addition to the relaxed silhouette, the puffer jacket is designed to grow with your body: You can u nzip the sides to give yourseld eight more inches of room!

Those are my zippers, and all I have to do is line them up so that the extension zips perfectly into my coat.This poses particular problems for stroller-pushing families – no amount of bundling is going to be enough for an infant when we need to get across town in -35C for a mandatory doctor’s appointment, nor will I be able to push a stroller (even our huge-wheeled Bob) down un-ploughed sidewalks after we’ve gotten 40 cm of snow over night.
