Let’s talk TikTok pregnancy trends. If you’re even remotely pregnant and scrolling, your FYP is probably a wild mix of belly oil routines, bump-friendly outfits, hormonal tear-jerkers, and those oddly captivating “I took Mucinex and got pregnant” stories.

This corner of the internet is chaotic in the best way, half science, half sorcery, and a whole lot of “I tried this and here’s what happened.” Whether you’re TTC, newly expecting, or halfway to delivery, TikTok is bursting with tips. But what’s trend, what’s trash, and what’s actually helpful?

We’re breaking it down — from viral hacks to Lauryn Bosstick’s ultra-curated pregnancy essentials, plus the surprising resurgence of things like Geritol (wait, what?!).

1. TikTok Loves a Fertility Hack — and Yes, That Includes Mucinex.

Let’s start with the weirdest one: Mucinex. Yes, the cold medicine. The internet (and a lot of hopeful commenters) swear that taking Mucinex around ovulation can help sperm swim more easily thanks to its main ingredient, guaifenesin, which thins cervical mucus.

Doctors are… cautiously curious. Some say there’s a sliver of logic; others roll their eyes so hard you can hear it.

Bottom line: It might not hurt, but don’t bank your baby-making dreams on it. Ask your OB before raiding your cold meds.

2. The “Get Pregnant Fast” TikTok: Geritol Makes a Comeback?!

If you thought Geritol was your grandma’s multivitamin, think again. TikTok’s got a wave of users crediting this old-school iron and B-vitamin supplement for boosting fertility.

One woman said, “I took Geritol and got pregnant within a month. I call it the baby vitamin.”

There’s zero scientific evidence linking Geritol to fertility. But hey, if you’re low on iron or B12, it’s worth asking your doctor. Just don’t expect miracles.

3. Pregnancy Skin Goals: Lauryn Bosstick’s Radiant Secrets

Podcast queen, skincare junkie, and glam mom Lauryn Bosstick (of The Skinny Confidential) doesn’t gatekeep. Her pregnancy glow isn’t just genetics — it’s curation.

Here are Lauryn’s Top 10 Pregnancy Essentials for healthy skin, comfort, and confidence:

1. Ice Roller

Puffy face? Not today. Lauryn’s pink Skinny Confidential ice roller is her holy grail for depuffing, soothing, and boosting circulation — all pregnancy-safe.

2. Dry Brush

Stimulate the lymph system, exfoliate, and get that skin silky smooth. Also great for fighting stretch marks and staying zen.

3. Non-Toxic Body Oil

She swears by clean ingredients. Think Cocoon by Indie Lee, or Necessaire’s Body Oil — hydrating without the nasties.

4. Magnesium Spray

Calms restless legs, helps you sleep, and reduces cramps. Lauryn uses Ancient Minerals magnesium spray nightly.

5. Belly Support Band

Not just for looks. A good band can relieve back pain and help you move like you’re not smuggling a watermelon.

6. Pregnancy Pillow (That Doesn’t Look Like a Whale)

Lauryn prefers chic over clunky, think Snuggle Me or BBHugme. Minimal, supportive, and totally Instagrammable.

7. Clean Skincare Staples

She sticks with Alpyn Beauty, OSEA, and Dr. Loretta — gentle, effective, and pregnancy-approved.

8. Hydration Station

Coconut water, LMNT packets, or a chic Stanley tumbler filled with lemon and mint. Hydration isn’t optional.

9. Slip-on Slides

Pregnant and bending over don’t mix. Lauryn lives in sleek Birkenstocks, Alo slides, or Gucci mules (because, obviously).

10. Confidence Armor

This one’s personal. Whether it’s lash extensions, a brow tint, or a lip mask — if it makes you feel good, it matters. Lauryn leans into glam as self-care.

4. TikTok’s Bump-Worthy Fashion Tips

Pregnancy fashion on TikTok is elite. Gone are the days of tent dresses and surrendering your style. Now it’s all about:

• Skims Fits Everybody: Yes, even pregnant bodies. Stretchy, flattering, and surprisingly bump-friendly.
  
• Amazon ribbed bodycons: $30 magic dresses that hug in all the right places.
  
• Matching sets: Comfort meets confidence. Throw on a cardi, and you’ve got errands to red carpet.
  

Bonus trend: pregnancy announcement fits. Think: “I told him we were going to brunch” with a “Dad” hat reveal.

5. The Confidence-First Pregnancy Trend: Wellness Over Worry

A massive TikTok shift is happening: wellness > weight gain stress. Women are rejecting old narratives and tuning in to what feels good. That includes:

• Walking, not obsessing over workouts.
  
• Eating intuitively, not punishingly.
  
• Sharing the bloat, the acne, the “I cried because someone ate my bagel” moments.
  

It’s not about looking perfect. It’s about feeling human. Which might be the most important trend of all.

Final Thoughts: What TikTok Gets Right (and What You Shouldn’t Try at Home)

TikTok is chaotic, inspiring, and weirdly brilliant when it comes to pregnancy tips. But it’s not a doctor and neither is your favorite influencer. Use trends as a jumping-off point, not a rulebook.

Take what works, leave what’s nonsense, and remember: your journey doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.

Whether you’re ice rolling, wearing bump-hugging dresses, or nervously popping Mucinex with your fingers crossed, the goal is the same — feeling your best in a body that’s doing incredible things.

Now go glow, grow, and maybe grab a Geritol — or not.
