Check out BOBA {Baby on Board Apparel}
I first heard about Baby On Board Apparel through a Zulily sale, I think.  They are a small Canadian maternity company that specializes in maternity clothes that is comfortable, lasting and able to be worn during and beyond pregnancy.
Not too long ago BOBA partnered up with the talented Matthew Langille, the guy behind funky designs of many kid’s clothing and gear companies and together they created a fun line of maternity Tshirts you’re going to want to have. It’s called Monster Mania and it comes in 4 different colors with adorable monsters on each.  I just had to go to a fun place to photograph the shirt- and what’s more fun than a colorful playground.
You might  think: “It’s just a T-shirt! Big deal! I can wear my pre-pregnancy Tshirts just fine.” That’s what I thought starting out and continued thinking till about 7th month when all my long pre-pregnancy tees started getting tight and uncomfortable around my boobs and waist. But it wasn’t until I was in my mid third trimester that I realized why exactly you need a good quality maternity T-shirt: the length, the fabric and the cut.
If you follow me on Instagram, you should have seen me wear this one pretty much every single day. Going for a walk? Get my Monster Mania tee! Out to my doctor’s appointment? Where’s my Monster Mania tee? Wherever I went – I reached for it.
Aside from being incredibly comfortable and soft and stretchy, which is what maternity wear is all about, it is THE ONLY t-shirt that I have that is LONG ENOUGH! Buying long tees and tanks from a non-maternity brand worked for a bit, but now that I have to wear maternity jeans with bands and shorts that don’t zip up all the way, no other Tshirt is long enough to cover up the jean band or the zipper.
Most of you preggos probably hit that point way earlier in your pregnancy, but because of my height, Alexis has a lot of room, so my belly has only started REALLY growing recently – and now I finally get it.
Once again, it CAN easily  be worn post-partum, which is always been my goal in picking maternity brands, so you’re not wasting money by buying it, since it’ll still be your favorite tee to wear once you’re no longer pregnant. Certain fabrics rub my belly in a wrong way making it itchy, others are too tight- this one is perfectly soft, curve hugging and comfortable.

Disclosure: I received this item from Baby On Board Apperel for review. All opinions are 100% my own.
love the stella nursing top!
I would pick the stella nursing top as well! I love items that have a longer closet life then a few months during pregnancy!
I love the Ella dress – looks so comfortable!
Upside Down Monster! Love it!
I love the Stella Nursing Top!
I’m due in June, so it’ll be springtime when I’ll REALLY need these. I think the Dalia long sleeve will be perfect for springtime in the cold cold north. You’re lucky to be able to wear t-shirts through the winter!
Oh I was thinking the same thing. How it’s nice I don’t have to worry about sweaters and coats.
Saweet giveaway! I just LOVE your giveaways girl!
Thanks, Shaunna! It was my goal to find companies that would be fun and appealing to me and readers. Good luck!
You have it right! The Knocking Monster is the cutest! 🙂
I only really saw one dress, the Ella dress. I like the white. But as far as other items, I really like the Amelia coat.
I love the pink Monster Mania shirt with the balloon girl, so cute!
Hi Elena,
Just thought that you might like to know that we (me and my sister) have just sent you an email with a personalized picture of you in it! We hope you like it. We thought that we’d let you know on here as well just so you didn’t think that it was some strange, weird email:-)
Cheers!!

I love the Balloon Girl Monster Mania tee! I also followed you using Feedburner, but the dialogue box zipped away before I could add that 🙂
I really like the Amelia coat! Super cute!
We have that purple dinosaur at a playground near our home! Weird.
