Nursing cloths in summer
Hey mommys ☺️
My baby is due in June and I am looking for recommendations on nursing and postpartum clothes. Basically all my nice clothes got lost by an airline and if I look at the leftover summer clothes I wore last year when I was slim and trained, I doubt this will be comfy to wear once the baby is out.
What did you go for as postpartum summer clothes?
And for nursing bras (can't wear any bras since I'm pregnant as my boobs start itching almost immediately upon close fabric)... Did you buy them beforehand hoping they'd fit after the milk came in? I heard the cup can go up 3 sizes, that's so hard to predict the milky breast size, or is it not? Is a nursing top with integrated bra better?
Thanks for your input!!
For the bras I waited until baby was born since I didn't know what size I'd be. However once he was born I found I was too overwhelmed to deal with measuring, sizing, and then finding and buying something so I was in frumpy triangle sports bras for awhile. Everyone's different though so you may find you have time/energy to deal with finding the right bra. If I did it again I would still wait, but I'd find some stores and styles I want ahead of time so all that's left is to measure and purchase. As for nursing clothes my advice would be not to spend too much on items specifically for nursing as they can be a lot pricier than normal clothes. Things like button/snap down shirts, criss-crossed v-necks, basically anything with easy access can work well and then you can still wear them after you're done nursing :)
