4 Wardrobe Staples to Stay On-Trend While Nursing Your Baby
The first few weeks with a newborn are a mix of pure bliss and fear of the unknown. There are many firsts and, if you’re like me, many things you didn’t see coming. As a newly nursing mom, I quickly learned that breastfeeding-friendly pieces are a must.
Pieces that are breathable, comfy, and with easy access are essential when nursing. Although there are tops designed for breastfeeding, I couldn’t find any that matched my personal style. Through some experimenting, I’ve found certain styles that work the best. Below, I’ve included some wardrobe staples that will help you keep an on-trend look while also being able to feed your baby easily and comfortably.

Classic Button-Downs
A basic button down can be dressed up or down and is essential to any wardrobe. They are also perfect for unbuttoning quickly for a stress-free breastfeeding session.
Wraps
Tops and dresses in a wrap style are both flattering and convenient. Pieces with the quick snap front are a plus!
Henley Tops with Buttons
Henley Tops are a basic staple that can go with many different looks and are great in any season. Find henleys with a button front for effortless breastfeeding.
Cardigans
Cardigans are a great layer to have on hand. Use it as extra coverage when breastfeeding or wear it as a top with buttons for easy access for baby.
