If you’re feeling up for it, (probably in part to some surging hormones), you don’t have to put a pause on feeling sexy simply because you’re pregnant. In fact, you should celebrate your curves and wear some sexy maternity lingerie — if for no one else, then for your own damn self. Why? Well, if you thought maternity lingerie (and lingerie in general, really) was for your partner’s pleasure, think again. After all, wearing something that shows off your body beautifully is a total turn on, for you first, and then for your partner. It makes you feel good about yourself and there’s nothing sexier than someone who’s comfortable in their own skin.

And speaking of comfort, sexy maternity lingerie has come a long way. There are many options that are designed with your ever-changing body in mind. (Think bras that offer support without digging into your shoulders and panties that you don’t have to hike up or pull out of your butt.) Many maternity bras — even the sexy ones — offer enough coverage where you want it, and some can even be used postpartum for nursing, too.

Whether it’s for Valentine’s Day or just any ol’ Wednesday, anytime is the right time for some sexy maternity lingerie. And these options below will remind you that you’re beautiful and that growing a human is not only empowering, but a sexy experience, too.

1An elegant maternity and nursing nightgown

Sure, you might want to feel sexy, but you also want to keep it classy, too. You can be both with this Kindred Bravely Lucille Maternity & Nursing Nightgown. It’s super comfortable and has an empire waist which will fit nicely above your bump. Wear it postpartum as a nursing gown, since it has clip-down cups that will make nighttime breastfeeding beautiful.

2A beautiful maternity lingerie set

You definitely won’t be feeling frumpy in this lacey bra from Cake Maternity. Pair a deep plunging cut with French-inspired deco lace, and you have a duo that will definitely get you in the mood. This bra can get you through your nine months and help you while you’re nursing, too. Pair this bra with the Truffles Lace Brief ($25.00), which features a cotton-lined low waist front to cradle your bump. Best part: it doesn’t have a visible panty line.

3A maternity-and-nursing bra that’s just beautiful

There’s so much to love about this bra from Cake Maternity. For starters, it functions for both your nine months as well as nursing once Baby arrives. But the gorgeous deco lace and plunging neckline make this bra so sexy. Pair it with the matching panties, and you’ve got yourself some lingerie that can be worn even when you’re not getting slinky between the sheets.

4A black lacy maternity lingerie set

You’ll feel oh so sexy in this sweet black lacy babydoll lingerie set. You might need to size up for this set, which can run a little small. It offers complete coverage for your boobs and butt, so you won’t have to worry about it coming off — unless you want it to.

5A comfy, sexy maternity nightgown

Sure, you want to look sexy, but you want to feel comfortable, too. That’s when this fun and flirty maternity and nursing gown from Kindred Bravely can fit your every mood. It has a lacey bodice that brings the sexy, but the bottom is stretchy, cozy, “I’m ready to go to sleep for eight hours” vibe. The empire waist makes this so much more than a nightgown, and the clip down cups allow you to breastfeed your baby in style. The racerback bodice helps keep your straps in place while you nurse, while the lacey detail allows you to feel beautiful.

6A plus-size maternity lingerie dress you can sleep in

Looking for something you can get sexy (and sleep) in? This PinkBlush black ruffled trim maternity plus sleep dress does the trick. The wrap-front neckline shows off your best assets while the adjustable cami straps will ensure that the delicate dress doesn’t shift while you sleep. It’s perfect for bedtime and sexy time, too.

7Easy maternity lingerie to take on — and off

When you can’t be bothered with bras and putting on panties, just slip into this easy breezy (and beautiful) bodysuit from Shein. Customers report that it’s stretchy and runs true to size. You can even wear this under a dress to go from day to, um, a very sexy date night.

8A sexy maternity bra from Victoria’s Secret

If you’ve shopped at Victoria’s Secret prior to pregnancy, you’ll be happy to know that there are also maternity options for your nine months. Case in point: This pretty plus-size maternity and nursing bralette. It’s lightly-lined, so you can wear it under your clothes without worrying about your nipples showing. It has adjustable straps and is wireless so you won’t have to deal with digging. And the clip cups make it ideal for nursing your newborn.

9Pretty panties for your pregnancy

It’s hard to find a pair of panties that are perfect during pregnancy. They either hit at the wrong spot, roll down, or don’t offer enough coverage. Well, the light blue lace over bump panties from Seraphine tackle all those issues — plus, they’re pretty, too. The over the bump fit means your belly will feel secure, but it’s the sweetly scalloped waistband that makes this pair sweet and sexy at the same time.

10A leopard print maternity bralette

This leopard print maternity bralette will bring out the animal in your partner — and you. The padded cups will offer support for your boobs, and it’s made from printed soft, stretchy, and semi sheer fabric with scalloped lace. It has a pull-on style, so you won’t have to struggle trying to clip your bralette in the back. Best part: This bra can be used during your pregnancy and postpartum as well, since it has clip on and clip off nursing straps that can be adjustable for easy breezy breastfeeding.

11A red maternity lingerie set for Valentine’s Day

If you’re looking to feel sexy but are on a budget, you can’t beat this maternity polka dot tie shoulder slip dress from Shein. It comes with a thong, and the sheer material makes it super sexy — and all for $9.

12A chic set that’s pretty in pink (and brown)

This beautiful bra from Seraphine will give you pretty in pink (and brown) vibes. The contrast lace trim blends with the soft pink of the bra, which is made from a soft, silky smooth microfiber fabric. The bra is adjustable and has discreet drop down clips for nursing once your baby is born.

13A maternity bra that offers sheer support

We can’t resist this adorable bralette from Hot Milk Lingerie. It provides full cup support for even the biggest, third-trimester breasts, and offers paneled shaping to make you feel sexy. Sheer black lace over sheer black mesh completes the look of this wire-free bra.

14Maternity lingeries that’s just darling for your bump

Your bump will look beautiful in this ultra-feminine maternity babydoll dress from Amazon. Made from silky soft material, the babydoll dress has a lace overlay and a flyaway front, which you can open to show off your belly. A big bow adds extra detail on the bodice, and thick straps that tie into a bow around the neck mean that your girls will stay in place.

If you’re looking to spice things up in the bedroom or simply feel sexy in your own skin during your nine months, there are so many sexy maternity lingerie options to choose from. Slip some of them on — and see how fast it takes for them to fall to the floor.
