Whether you’re a first-time mom, or an old pro, practice some self-care by making sure you’re treating yourself while you perform the most important job – caring for and feeding your baby! These were some of my favorite items while nursing and I don’t think I could have done it without them!
- French Terry Racerback Nursing & Sleep Bra: When I was pregnant and preparing to nurse, I knew I had to have a great nursing bra. What I didn’t think about was that I’d want to sleep in a bra as well, and that one had to be super comfy and also quick access for those nighttime feeds. I did NOT have the ability to deal with any clasps when my newborn was hungry and I was half asleep. These crossover front bras did the trick! SO comfortable to sleep in, and so easy to nurse in. I also wore them on days we were just lounging around the house.
- Organic Bamboo Reusable Nursing Pads: I paired these with the nursing & sleep bra because I found they worked better overnight than the disposable nursing pads I used during the day. They were also just more comfortable inside the crossover style. I LOVE these and the fact they come with a little storage pouch. Just throw them in the washer and they’re ready to reuse – I used and washed them for 7 months of nursing and they still look great! I also loved that they were thicker than my disposable nursing pads, so I’d wear them any time I felt like I needed a little extra padding… (some days my nursing nips were coming in a little stronger than I’d like with visitors etc.)
- Signature Sublime® Contour Hands-Free Pumping & Nursing Bra: We love a bra that does both! I made the mistake of buying a few solely “pumping” bras and would have to change when I got home from work in order to nurse my daughter. I love that this bra does both and also has a nice shape.
Lastly, any nursing mom needs a fantastic nursing bra and the style you choose will vary person to person, based on the amount of coverage, shape, etc. you’re looking for. I truly didn’t know what style I’d want until I was in it, so I recommend buying one bra of a few different styles and then making your decision later on. I also felt that depending on the stage I was in, I liked different bras – from freshly postpartum & new to nursing, to a few months in.
Luckily, Kindred Bravely is a one stop shop for all things maternity, postpartum, nursing, etc. and there’s truly something for everyone!
