Emma Benjafield, Head of Product at Tu said: “There are so many changes for women throughout pregnancy and motherhood, from the personal and the physical. We want to support mums and parents through this incredible experience, and ensure that they have practical, comfortable and stylish clothing which also makes them feel good.

“We are therefore thrilled to be working with new mum, Ashley James, who understands these challenges and triumphs of pregnancy and early motherhood.”

The collection, which is available to buy now at Sainsburys, contains lots of must-have items for mums, from pregnancy to early motherhood, and of course including products for their babies and newborns too.
