The Second Trimester: Settling In
From supportive belly bands to nourishing skin care and dreamy pregnancy pillows, our collection offers everything to help you settle into your second trimester. Whether you're planning your registry or just getting comfortable, our picks are here to keep you feeling your best."
Second Trimester (Weeks 13 to 27)
The second trimester spans weeks 13 through 27 of pregnancy and is often described as the easier stretch. Energy tends to return, morning sickness typically eases, and the belly starts to show. It is also when comfort and skin care become part of the daily routine, as added support around the abdomen and lower back becomes more useful and sleep starts to change. For many Canadian parents-to-be, this is also the natural window to start a baby registry and plan a shower, since there is usually more energy to spare than in the third trimester.

Frequently Asked Questions
When do you start showing in the second trimester?
Most people notice a visible
bump sometime in the second trimester, though timing varies a lot from person
to person and pregnancy to pregnancy.
When is the best time to start a baby registry?
The second trimester is a
popular window to start a registry, since energy is often higher than in the
third trimester and there is still time before the pre-baby rush.
What should I look for in a pregnancy pillow?
Consider your usual sleep
position, how much space you have in bed, and whether you want a pillow that
also works for nursing after baby arrives.
Is belly oil actually necessary during pregnancy?
It is not required, but many
people find belly oils and balms help with comfort and the skin's elasticity as
the belly grows.
