JoJo Maman Bebe have been my go to for maternity clothes since I found out I’m expecting so I was overjoyed when an email popped into my inbox inviting me along to try out their Maternity VIP Shopping Experience. Let’s be serious, you deserve to be treated as a VIP throughout your pregnancy, you’re growing a little human after all and that’s a pretty big (and pretty tough) deal! The VIP Maternity Experience is a perfect opportunity to take some time for you and help you pick some clothes and products to feel good about yourself and your changing body and growing bump. Did I mention that it’s free?! Enjoy this little post on what the experience has to offer and then get online and book your place, you’d be crazy not to!
You book a one hour session (though you can browse for longer or spend less time with your sales assistant, the experience is tailored to what you need) You’ll be greated with an alcohol free Seedlip cocktail and a lovely smiley JoJo team member who will talk you through everything you need to know for your stage of pregnancy. If you’re quite early on then make sure to check out their maternity range and make the most of the free bra fitting service, you should ideally be fitted for a maternity bra around 8-10 weeks (although we’re all different!) if you’re further along you can discover some of JoJo’s nursing range. Quite a few styles are suitable for maternity and nursing so you’ll be able to get lots of wear out of them, even after your little one is born! Honestly the girls at JoJo’s are so lovely, friendly and knowledgeable, I left the Belfast store on cloud nine (with a full new wardrobe in toe!)
I’m sure you’ll fall in love with their maternity collection, like I have and as a treat you get 15% off all maternity and nursing purchases on the day and an incredible goody bag full of samples and goodies. The lovely JoJo team have kindly popped another 15% voucher in your goodie bag for a further purchase at a later date (Which will be perfect for stocking up on some cute baby clothes!). I’m head over heels for the gorgeous purple tote bag, it folds up too so is super practical for taking shopping!
Booking for sessions opens online two weeks before the first date so be sure to book in advance so you don’t miss out on a slot! The Belfast experiences start on the 12th of March and run until the 25th of March. (booking is open already for these so be quick as the slots are booking up fast!) For a full list of other dates and locations check out JoJo Maman Bebe’s blog post.
I’ll have a post up in the next week or so of all the maternity and nursing bits I picked up at JoJo’s and I’m already eyeing up a few other things! Their clothes honestly make me feel so good about my changing body!
I can’t wait to have a baby as it literally seems like the perfect excuse to go shopping! This experience sounds amazing and I love that you get a mocktail and a money off voucher! That sounds insanely up my street! I can’t wait to see your haul, Rach! 🌷
Such a sweet post. I had never heard of that concept and experience. Being pregnant is so tiring and so much work that you do need to relax sometimes! this experience sounds perfect for that! xx corinne
Sounds lovely! Would love to experience this if I was expecting 🙂 I think I would be a little freaked out so being taken care of by people that know a lot about pregnancies would measure me!

I’ve had a few 10% off vouchers for here & I haven’t yet checked it out. Lots fab, I’ll have to go online for a look & check out what’s on offer. Sounds like a great shopping experience and I look forward to hearing about your purchases here.
This is such a nice service. Mother’s to be definitely deserve the special treatment and it sounds the perfect experience for finding all the stuff you need and any helpful information for first time mums. Can’t wait to see pics of Squish! X
This sounds like an amazing experience considering it’s free! It’s great that it’s tailored to exactly what you need. I hope you’re having a very happy and healthy pregnancy so far 💕

This sounds so lovely, and just what new or expecting mums need 😊 I don’t plan on having kids myself but it’s definitely something I’ll mention to any of my friends who do 😊

Aww these are so cute! Definitely seems like a good idea for a present! Keeping this in mind❤️
Massive congratulations on your pregnancy. This sounds like a wonderful idea, really glad you’ve enjoyed it. I’m looking froward to your pregnancy posts

This sounds fab what a lovely idea!
What a great sounding day. I had no idea they did these experiences, I need to book one in – maternity clothes are definitely called for (and I need to top up my newborn essentials, this baby needs SOME new bits of their own rather than just hand me downs!). x
I wish I’d had this opportunity when I was pregnant rach it sounds incredible! You got so many goodies and I’m obsessed with these flat lays too!! Xx
I didn’t know they did this. Great service. I lived in JoJo mamas Bebe maternity clothes. They are so comfy and fashionable x
I love this! Your photography is amazing too! Z x

A friend of mine has just hit 14 weeks – have sent this post straight over to her!
This sounds so nice and whenever I see blogger moms talk about jojo maman bebe I know that’s what I would buy myself or friends when we get to that stage. Lea, xx
This looks fantastic!! I’m not sure if it was available in 2015 when I was pregnant but I would certainly do it next time – I alllllways say to friends who get pregnant make sure to take the time to treat yourself to comfortable and flattering clothes whatever stage you’re at. It’s so easy to forget about you and focus on baby but a little retail therapy and killer pair of jeans does wonders for your mental health during pregnancy.
This is such a lovely idea! I’m not sure anything like this was available in 2014 when I was first pregnant but I really think this would have helped me appreciate and enjoy my pregnancy along with other Mum-to-Bes! Well done Jojo x
This sounds like such a lovely experience for expectant mothers and it looks like you picked up some great bits! xx
