Yeah, getting dressed up for the holidays was fun when you were a kid, but when you’re pregnant, you get another opportunity to deck yourself out in holiday-themed threads to much fanfare. More often than not, your bump is going to elicit attention no matter what you wear, but when your outfit pays homage to both a holiday and your burgeoning belly, well, it’s a whole other level of beauty. So if you’re feeling festive this February 14, you might want to wear these Valentine’s Day maternity shirts that celebrate the season.

There are two schools of thought when it comes to holiday-themed maternity shirts. Either you can go all in with the fun factor and crank up the cuteness. (You know, baby footprints that are perfectly positioned on your belly, or a punny yet sweet saying.) Or you can be a bit more subtle and simply wear a shirt that’s in the same color scheme of the holiday (which in this case, would be red and other matching hues), but without going too over the top.

From shirts that are sweet to slouchy red sweaters that are comfy and cozy, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from come February 14. But no matter what you choose to wear, one thing is certain: You’ll look lovely in any of these Valentine’s Day maternity shirts.

1

A Valentine’s Day maternity shirt that can be used as a pregnancy announcement

If you’re looking for a cute way to announce that you’re expecting, this tee shirt can be a perfect as a pregnancy announcement. From Etsy seller LoveLuluBell, the Adding Another Sweetheart shirt comes in both pink and red colors, so it’s ideal for Valentine’s Day. What makes this tee shirt totally adorable are the two tiny feet on the belly with (aww) a heart inside each of them.

A floral maternity shirt

Just because it’s Valentine’s Day doesn’t mean that you want to be covered in hearts and sappy sayings. This ruffle maternity top from Ingrid & Isabel is comfortable, thanks to a loose and flowy fit. It’s meant to be worn for your nine months and beyond, since it allows room for your belly to grow. The ruffle details give it a bit of romantic whimsy for Valentine’s Day, which can be just enough when you’re busy running after a toddler, too.

A cheery Valentine’s Day maternity shirt

What makes this Old Navy Valentine’s Day maternity shirt stand out is that you can’t really tell that it’s holiday themed. It’s not until you look closer at the top of the shirt and read the words “Whole Lotta Love!” written in red that you realize that this could work as an option if you’re looking for Valentine’s Day maternity shirts. You can pair it with some shorts slathered in hearts (like in the pic) or with a pair of red pants to really rock a Valentine’s Day look.

A maternity shirt for a romantic Valentine’s Day date night

Sure, you’re expecting, but you may still want to look (and feel) sexy. This maternity wrap top checks a lot of boxes. First, it’s date night-ready, thanks to a sexy plunging V neckline that will let you show off your best assets. The wrap design also lets you adjust the shirt to give yourself more room around your tummy so that it’s not too tight.

A red sweater with extra arm room

You might want to have your shirt fitted around your bump, but need some more space in other parts of the shirt — like your sleeves, for example. This maternity sweater from Pink Blush has a boat neck for easy-on-easy-off wear. The super soft knit sweater is made from a cotton and acrylic blend that will feel kind to your sensitive skin. And since it’s not specifically Valentine’s-themed, you can wear it well past the holiday.

A maternity shirt that will make your heart skip a beat

Look, lots of Valentine’s Day maternity shirts are red but they don’t all have to be. This Extra Heartbeat Inside pregnancy shirt form Etsy seller ErinsaraDesign is lovely because it’s understated yet hits all of those pregnancy feels. The gender-neutral shirt comes in unisex sizes and also comes with an option for v neck, too. While you can choose from colors like heather mauve and Kelly green, the shirt does come in red as well, making it truly a sweet Valentine’s Day maternity shirt.

A funny Valentine’s Day maternity shirt

Just when you thought that your days of baking holiday cookies were over, now you’ve got a bun in the oven to lovingly care for. So if your family and friends were wondering, they’ll know the answer when you wear this punny shirt from Etsy seller LoveLuLuBell. The short sleeve shirt is made extra roomy so it might be extra spacious if you’re newly expecting. If you want to wear the shirt throughout your pregnancy, the seller suggests sizing up to fit your growing belly — and the cookies you might eat, too.

A plus-size maternity top for Valentine’s Day

Baby, it might be cold outside, but you’ll feel cozy in this cool babydoll plus size maternity top from Pink Blush. It’s made from a ribbed knit fabric that offers warmth but is still lightweight.

A lovely Valentine’s Day maternity shirt

Let the world know how happy you are when you wear this Valentine’s Day shirt from Etsy seller signaturetshirts. It’s made from soft lightweight cotton and sized by men’s chest size, so it’ll give you some extra room if you want to wear it past February 14. It comes in a variety of colors, but for Valentine’s Day, you’ll probably want to pick red with white lettering.

A red maternity shirt that can be dressed up

Although the design of this red long sleeve maternity top is simple enough, the empire waist and tunic style make this a shirt that you can take from day to night. It’s also made from rayon and spandex to give it a little shimmer and shine, which can be ideal for a Valentine’s Day date night. Dress it up with a pair of heels and some accessories and you’ll be ready for a night out on the town — that hopefully has you home by 9 p.m.

11

A red maternity shirt that shows off your shoulders

When you want to wear something a little sexy but still stay covered up, this off shoulder maternity top lets you show off a little skin. The fitted top has an off-shoulder neckline, fitted sleeves that come to the elbow, and a lettuce trim to add extra detail. It’s also stretchy, thanks to some spandex. Pair it with leggings or jeans for a simple-yet-sexy look.

12

A red buffalo plaid maternity shirt

Even though it’s Valentine’s Day, it can still be quite cold outside. Be prepared for V Day (and frigid temps) with this MAMA Cotton Shirt. The buffalo plaid design makes it a perfect fit for winter weather and still can be worn for Valentine’s Day as well. The shirt, made from woven cotton fabric, has dropped shoulders and long sleeves with buttons at the cuffs. You can use the removable tie belt to cinch your waist, or let the shirt hang loose.

A long sleeve red maternity shirt

When you want to get more than one wearing out of your holiday shirt, this shirt from Kohl’s can be worn throughout winter and even into spring days when it’s still chilly. From Sonoma Goods For Life, the shirt has a scoop neck, jersey construction, and a drapey fit that won’t cling to your curves. The empire waist is designed not to dig into your tummy, which will make it comfortable whether you’re at work or out at dinner with your partner.

Show your bump some love when you wear any one of these Valentine’s Day maternity shirts. The cool thing is that many of them can be worn far beyond February 14, so you just might be feeling (and wearing) the love long after the holiday is over.
