Breast Feeding Clothes: Chic, Easy to Use and Very, Very You
Modern breast feeding clothes allow nursing mothers to combine fashion and elegance with practicality. Once upon a time, breast feeding clothes didn’t leave new mothers with many options. On the one hand, they could wear specialist breast feeding clothes. While these tops and dressed certainly made breast feeding easier, but were distinctly functional in their design. Many women are already conscious of their figure after having a baby and unflattering, matronly designs do little to accentuate their femininity. The only alternative was to wear normal clothing. Although this gave a wider range of stylish options and opened up more flattering designs, it lacked practicality. Feeding a baby was distinctly awkward and uncomfortable, particularly in public places. Well, it doesn’t have to be that way; modern breast feeding clothes combine the two to offer new mothers a practical option with designer style.
Having a baby can be plenty expensive enough – bottles, clothes, cots, increased heating bills and not to mention the endless, endless nappies – without the added expenditure of having to buy yourself a new set of clothes as you go from a mum-to-be to a proud new mother. Crossover nursing wear allows you to go from an expectant mum with a fantastic bump to a practical, get-out-and-go breast feeding mother without having to invest in a whole new wardrobe.
We know our mums to be are proud of their bump and don’t want to be stuck in baggy black T-shirts. The crossover nursing wear accentuates your feminine figure without hiding away the fact that you are pregnant. Once you have given birth to baby, the same clothes serve just as well for breast feeding.
The different styles of breast feeding clothes offer a number of different access methods for nursing options. The wonderful thing about these breast feeding clothes is that the nursing access options are incorporated into the design; others will look at you and see the fashionable cut of your dress or top, rather than drably functional attire. Different women may prefer different options, which may help inform your choice of clothing;
– Dresses with a plunging neckline are both attractive and practical, allowing the neckline to be easily pulled aside.
– Striped and layered designs conceal access via lifting the empire line.
– Some tops allow the lower hem to be lifted.
– Side-seam access hides the seams to the back, allowing the outer layer of clothing to be lifted for nursing access.
– Vertical front access is easily concealed by a drape design, allowing a slit at the front to be pulled open or closed as necessary.
– There is also the traditional drop cup access; like many nursing bras, this allows one cup of the dress or top to be detached and dropped, affording quick and discreet nursing access.
The availability of breast feeding clothes needn’t limit your wardrobe either. The wonderful advantages we have discussed of breast feeding clothes applies to nightwear, top, dresses and jackets. There are simple tops perfect for casual wear, elegant dresses for weddings and other special occasions, as well as the obligatory slender numbers when you really want to rock that yummy mummy look.
Breast feeding clothes needn’t be the restriction they once were. With a range of designs and styles available, you can express your individuality and look better than you ever have done before, while remaining the practical, go-getting mother. Chic, practical and very, very you.
