I remember my breastfeeding journey very deeply. 4 times and always well over a year every time. Sometimes up to 2 years. And my favourite outfit during these years was a comfortable dress. I like dresses. Especially in summer, because you are fully dressed in 2 seconds which is very handy with children. And because it is nice and feminine.
For a long time however the mission of finding a pretty dress that worked for breastfeeding aka a breastfeeding dress was not as easy as one would think.
You can find lots of black stretchy versions, but something cool, cute and/ or chic is a difficult.
I remember going to a wedding when Antoine was a baby and finding a good dress actually led to that article (which was 1st published in July 2010). And I remember that there was another breastfeeding mum under the guests who went for a very fancy gown but also had to nearly undress every time her little one was hungry. Not my idea of a relaxed day!
9 years later (yes, Paul & Paula will turn 9 this May!) and our options are so much better! And this article really deserves an update and a selection of some of the most beautiful breastfeeding dresses for this Spring/ Summer season!
Because stylish nursing clothes for breastfeeding mothers are rare but they are there. You can look like the beautiful mummy you are and breastfeed without struggling and with confidence:
Happy sunny season to all expecting mums and mums with nursing children!
