Maternity Clothing Boutique: Bump Maternity

Bump Maternity came from a need for a creative and social outlet. Born and raised in Winnipeg, and having enjoyed a 23 year career as a stay at home mom for two children, Diane was ready for a new adventure.

Today, Bump Maternity has become a one-stop shop for all your modern maternity and nursing wear. We hold a beautiful selection of current and classic pieces for all stages of motherhood, carrying great brands such as Legoe Heritage, Boob Design, Bae the Label, and Ripe Maternity.
