If I’m being honest, the thing I look forward to the most about winter is sweater weather. After all, sweaters are like the adult equivalent of a beloved blankey, right? They’re soft and cozy and when you slip into your favorite, it feels like maybe everything is going to be ok after all.

But if you’re dressing a bump, transitioning your wardrobe can be overwhelming. Your tried-and-trues are likely going to have to stay packed away, and investing in new favorites when the need is only temporary can get expensive. Luckily, when considering what you need for maternity clothes, sweaters are some of the most forgiving pieces. And—bonus—they often last long after pregnancy, as quite often your fave maternity sweaters double as nursing sweaters too.

We’ve rounded up some of our favorite maternity sweaters for every stage of pregnancy and beyond.
