I first found this brand on Amazon of all places. I was searching for nursing tops after I gave birth to my second tiny baby, and realized that there were not only breastfeeding friendly tops, but also dresses.
My first purchase was this teal dress – teal being my favorite color (in case you couldn’t tell by now!)
Since then, I purchased the same dress in black…
and also added this little number to my wardrobe!
Now I’m not one to be shy about breastfeeding in public. It is my right, and I am a proud “dairy diva,” but I’m not always comfortable showing of my postpartum belly when I need to pull up my shirt, nor am I always keen on pulling down my top and exposing half of my top half of my body. I’m a tall mom, so when I need to show skin, I show A LOT of skin, and sometimes I’d rather not.
That’s where nursingwear comes in handy.
Milk Nursingwear makes nursing dresses and shirts that allow moms to nurse easily by lifting a top layer of fabric and exposing a smaller opening. I’ve honestly nursed in this dress and people nearby didn’t even know I was breastfeeding, because all of my body that was exposed was completely covered up my baby’s head.

I’ve purchased several different shirts and dresses from this company, and have items for all four seasons. They are my staples when I need to go out with my baby, or if I know I’m going to be away for a long time and need easy access for pumping. I just adore that I can wear pretty and cute “mom clothes” without feeling frumpy. The striped solid yoke nursing top in navy is one of my absolute favorite pieces!
Their pieces really hold up over time, are comfortable, and are incredibly forgiving for the postpartum figure. Some shirts and dresses have ruching on the sides, some have short sleeves or long sleeves, and everything feels super comfy – and can easily be washed!
I don’t know when my breastfeeding relationship is going to end with my tiny baby, but when it does, I still might be wearing some of these pieces – because I love the way they feel, and how pretty I feel when I wear them.
