Top 5 Best Maternity Coats | 2017 Reviews
If you are pregnant during the winter months or are expected to give birth around that time or even later, one of the things that you should probably consider adding to your wardrobe are maternity jackets and coats.
Sure, there are some moms who have smaller frames and can just buy a size larger of those regular ones, even with their bulging bellies, but there are just some who would not fit in those no matter how much they try.
But, why even the need for a maternity winter coat? To protect yourself from the cold temperatures and harsh winds, of course! But more than that, these coats and jackets also allow pregnant moms to continue being stylish and fashion forward even with a growing tummy. After all, moms still need to take care of themselves first if they want to be able to take care of other people, right?
Beyond how a maternity coat looks, it is also important for moms to look into the functional side of these clothes, just like in any other type of purchase that they make. Among the things that they should ask themselves before purchasing include the following:
- Will it fit my bust and belly area?
- Will it truly protect me from the cold or even the snow and rain?
- Will it go with everything or do I have to overhaul my wardrobe?
- Can I wear this beyond my pregnancy?
- Is it heavy?
Now if you are in the lookout for new maternity winter clothes, here are our list of the most recommended maternity coats and our reviews.

Sweet Mommy Maternity and Mother’s Down Coat
This coat is slightly different from the other maternity winter coats that we have included in our list in that it is also a babywearing coat. And what might that be, you ask? Well, instead of wearing separate coats, you and your baby can get cozy and snuggle up in just one coat designed for just that.
This maternity jacket is designed for all stages of pregnancy and motherhood. You can wear this coat while your belly – and breasts – is still growing and even when your baby is born. It is stuffed with 90% down so you and your baby can stay warm even in the coldest of winter months. It even comes with a spacious hood with fur that can be detached if you do not like having them.
During your pregnancy, you can use the down coat for casual walks and quick trips outside. The baby pouch provides enough space for your belly during pregnancy but you also have the option to keep the coat open and make yourself appear more stylish.
Once your little one is born, you can still continue wearing it and use the baby pouch as an added protection from the wind and cold. Of course, it is meant to be worn on top of the baby carrier. The pouch can also double as a nursing cover so you do not have to bring extra accessories when you are out with your small one. The pouch is easily removable and you can use it as a stroller blanket by attaching it through its clips.
This maternity winter clothing is definitely made of high quality materials and will keep you warm inside, even in very cold temperatures. It might look a little awkward with the baby but you will get the hang of it eventually – it’s nice to stay close to your baby especially in the winter, right?
There is no doubt about it, this is the perfect maternity coat and babywearing coat to add to your list – so it deserves to be at the top spot!

Momo Maternity Prue Quilted Parka Coat
Momo Maternity is known to provide among the best lines in maternity jackets and this Prue parka coat is not an exception. It is made from polyester and nylon and provides warmth through the winter months while making sure that you stay fashionable and stylish.
One of the things we love about this product is that it provides the most room for a growing pair of breasts and a growing belly among the other coats available in their store. It is lightweight which is great (you do not want to add more to the weight you are carrying when you are pregnant) and is also waterproof and snowproof so you can use it outside even when it is raining or snowing.
The hood is detachable if you do not wish to use it and the coat is just the right length, which is usually a little above the knees, ensuring that it provides ample coverage from the cold. The sleeves also come with additional fabric to help keep the cold out even further. Now that will provide even more protection and keep you from freezing outside!
This maternity parka coat is great for pregnant women because it gives a flattering silhouette with interior cinchers located in each side. But, beyond your pregnancy, you can also use it and still look stylish and not look like a woman with a huge belly. This is definitely a great investment to make if you are constantly running out of the house during the cold winter months.
To make sure that your quilted park maternity winter coat lasts very long, machine wash it with cold water and then hang in a dry rack. Don’t worry, it is made from durable fabric so it won’t get damaged very easily. The zippers are also strong and durable and do not break off easily.
Overall, this is such a great and stylish coat to have and should be a staple in every woman’s wardrobe, pregnant or not. This is why we will rank it as second in our list.

Maternity Coat Beatrice Wool Flared By Nothing But Love
This beautiful red wool coat is something that pregnant women should have in their wardrobes this coming winter. It is a fully lined maternity coat with a standup collar, which is great for use not only during the winter but also during the late autumn or early spring. It is made from wrinkle resistant natural wool so you never have to worry about it not looking good or presentable enough any time of the day.
What we love about this wool coat is that it looks very fashionable and will not make you feel like a giant woman who is about to burst. As long as you choose the right size, you can be assured that you stay comfortable and warm when wearing this coat during warmer winters no matter what stage of pregnancy you are in. We also like that it can be used even beyond pregnancy and not make you feel big or give you a boxy look.
Be sure to go for maybe two sizes bigger as they tend to run rather small. Besides, you will have to deal with a growing tummy and breasts – and also wear something underneath so you need to make sure that you can still fit in their without making you feel too snug and tight.
Even though you are pregnant, you can totally complete a sophisticated look with this one. Go for a turtleneck sweater and pair it with slim leg pants (anything wider might not be very flattering on pregnant women) and maybe a pair of mid heels as well. Whether you are out for work, doing some shopping for your little one or just enjoying a rather chilly day outside, you will instantly become a head turner when you have this red wool maternity winter coat on.
Although we love a lot of things about this wool coat, it runs rather small and is also slightly heavy so we will have to place this at the third spot on the list.

Happy Mama Women’s Maternity Waterfall Cardigan Blazer
If you are looking for something that can get you covered through those chilly days, you should try to consider getting this beautiful cardigan blazer.
What we love most about this cardigan is that it is knitted making it feel like it was something made by your mom or your grandma. It is a little fragile and delicate in person so you will have to be extra careful in handling and washing it but otherwise it is a beautiful piece of clothing to add to your maternity wear.
This light maternity coat is perfect for when you are getting out on a chilly morning (or night) but you can also use it as an alternative to a throw blanket. It gives you the mobility you need for when you just want to curl up in the couch or in bed to watch TV, read books or just lie down – and not use those huge blankets that would otherwise tell you to “stop moving and get other stuff done” around the house.
Since the cardigan is a little see-through, it is not recommended to not wear anything underneath it. You could probably get away with a bra but you have to make sure that you wear pants in them – it will look sophisticated! Of course, you do not have to worry about not having space for your growing belly because the fabric is made from stretchy material so it still has enough room for your breasts and belly. The nice thing about it is that it can be worn extensively even beyond pregnancy (and even if you were never pregnant) because it will still look good, fashionable and flattering.
Perhaps our only main concern is the delicate fabric that it is made of, which makes washing and drying it a bit of a challenge. We recommend washing it in delicate cycle with cold water and then hanging it in over a dry rack. As comfortable as this cardigan makes us feel, we will have to put it in the fourth spot in our list.

Zeta Ville Women’s Pregnancy Maternity Waterfall Cardigan
If you are looking for something even lighter to help keep you warm during the chilly days, this is the perfect cardigan to consider adding into your wardrobe staple list. No, it won’t be the best one to wear on a rainy or snowy day outside but they are great for wearing inside the office or even inside the house, to keep the cold out. After all, being indoors and being pregnant should not stop you from being stylish, right?
This maternity winter clothing is rather light and is made from stretch fabric making it the perfect wardrobe addition for pregnant women. Even if you have already given birth, you can still use this cardigan for everyday casual wear during winter and even early spring or later autumn.
What we really love most about this cardigan is its flowy waterfall design that makes it very chic and feminine. It flatters the wearer through any stage of pregnancy and even beyond that. You definitely will feel very stylish and comfortable when you throw this over your regular maternity wear and will get complements as well.
However, while we really love this cardigan for stylish days and evenings, we would also prefer thicker and more heavy-duty maternity coats and jackets that will allow us to brave even the coldest days in winter. This won’t be enough if you are outside on a snowy day but it will somehow keep the chills away when inside the building. The cardigan also does not have a closure snap of any sort so you will have to constantly put it over your belly to help protect you from the cold.
We love its style and flattering look as well as its very affordable price but we would have wanted something that provided a little more coverage and warmth, suitable for use outside. For that, we will have to put this one at the bottom of our list.

Conclusion
Just because you are pregnant does not mean that you should just forget being stylish and trendy. In fact, there are many flattering types of clothing that women at this stage can use. Your belly may be growing but so are your boobs (and your butt) so use it to your advantage and flaunt it! Of course, you need to make sure that you stay well covered and protected from the elements so choose maternity coats and jackets that can meet halfway.
We hope our review of the best maternity coats have helped you find a stylish piece of clothing that is just right for your growing belly and even beyond.
