Nursing tops, a worthwhile investment?

[Vikky78]

Hi ladies,

Just wonder if anyone uses specifically made nursing tops at all to aid discrete breastfeeding?

Just wondering where's a good place to find them and what sorts you find the best/easiest to use?

I just use big baggy tops, I bought 3 from Primark at about £8 each lol. They work better for me as my boobs are huge and saggy lol, so I get them out underneath my top, and use the excess material to drape on Debs face to be discreet - that is until she pushes it away lol. If you're smaller, you may want something else, but for big boobies, big tops work fine

I agree with gingerpig - I find large tops work really well....... I feed loads out in public and I find big loose tops are fab...

grace can be fed underneath them and no-one sees anything very much

big baggy t-shirts and jumpers - its a wasteof money buying breast feeding tops they cost a bomb anyway!

I bought some, unfortunately my milk didn't come in so have no need for them but I still wear them as I like them!! I got them from mamaway over the net. Its your call I spent nine months dreaming of wearing nice clothes again so I wanted pretty tops not baggy t shirts but that is just me, everyone os different xxx

I brought some nursing tops and found them a godsend. They weren't expensive either around £8 each at H & M Mama. They've washed really well and 5 months on I'm still wearing them.

Xxx

Many thanks Ladies for your input.

Has anyone had any experience using them while breastfeeding the baby in a wrap/sling?

I might have to see if my mum's able to see if she can make some for me, when we're in need of them of course, as i have seen that they're quite expensive, and they don't seem to make them in my size that i've found so far.

Need to get pregnant first.

Many thanks again for your input into this matter.

I personally just use a normal top and whip 'em out when needed!

I have invsted in some nursing tops, wear them when I'm off out anywhere, as with M after 9 months I wanted to feel a bit more attractive again, and for me that means a few new items of clothing.

I have a few normal tops (stretchy vests & wrap over tops) that are great for if I'm at home or just visiting family/ friends so I just whip 'em out.

One of my stretchy wrap tops was only £4 in ASDA so i bought 2

i personally havent bought any nursing tops as such.. just lots of wrap tops or i wear a normal top with a vest underneath or a boobtube so im not exposing much...

altho i h&m do tops for like a tenner... might invest in a few i think

I have bought a couple of these (actually by accident, I thought they were just maternity tops) so will let you know.

Bought one in black though, which I may learn to regret!!??

Yes I agree

I alwasy get like low cut v neck tops so I can just pull it to one side. any top the is loose round the boob area is great
