A few names that keep coming up among mums I know, Cetaphil moisturizer is probably the most popular pick because it's gentle, fragrance-free, and easy to find at any Guardian or Watsons, though some felt it was a bit too basic for drier skin. Mama's Choice Daily Protection Face Moisturizer is another one specifically formulated with pregnancy in mind, so it takes the guesswork out of checking ingredients. My neighbour swore by SKN TO SKN's Glow & Go Moisturiser with mineral SPF during her pregnancy, she liked that it had sun protection built in so one less product to worry about. Clarins Hydra-Essentiel also gets mentioned for those who want something a bit more nourishing, though it's pricier, so it depends on your budget.
