Fashion for Nursing Moms

Breastfeeding moms are quicker to return to their pre-pregnancy weight, allowing them to feel fabulous again and not limited to just their maternity wardrobe. But, it’s not always easy for nursing moms to start wearing their pre-pregnancy wardrobe, as most of the tops, bras and dresses don’t allow easy access for the mother to nurse her baby. Nursing clothing is especially designed to flatter the new form while providing the function that nursing mothers need. This isn’t the nursing shirt of the 70’s or 80’s that just added an extra buttoned on panel down the front - these are high tech and high fashion solutions for the 21st century. Double layer tops whose top layer slides up, preserving modesty while allowing access through holes or vents, double layer tank tops with sides that snap down for quick access while limiting exposure - the new nursing apparel options are almost limitless - and almost as important - look and feel like regular clothing.

Health Benefits of Breast-feeding

It’s common knowledge the breast milk is good for babies, but did you know it’s good for mom too? Both mothers and children benefit from breast milk. For moms, breast feeding provides long-term preventative effects, including an earlier return to pre-pregnancy weight, reduced risk of pre-menopausal breast cancer and osteoporosis. Besides providing the right nutrition for babies, breast milk contains antibodies that protect infants from bacteria and viruses. Studies have shown that breastfed children have fewer ear infections, respiratory infections, urinary tract infections and have diarrhea less often. Infants who are exclusively breastfed tend to need fewer health care visits, prescriptions and hospitalizations resulting in a lower total medical care cost compared to never-breastfed infants. Support for nursing moms to continue their active lifestyles while continuing to breastfeed is essential. Home and workplace support as well as comfortable and stylish nursing clothing that is fashionable and functional helps nursing moms maintain their breastfeeding while maintaining a normal life outside of the home.
