pajamas

Pajamas that are easy to nurse in are helpful. I had a couple of nursing nightgowns from http://www.motherhood.com/Product.asp?Product_Id=946110364&MasterCategory_Id=MC29 for about $30 for summertime. In the winter button-down long-sleeved shirts or low-cut v-neck long-sleeved shirts worked well. I have friends who have just cut a big hole in the chest of a shirt that they used to sleep in. Just whatever is comfortable and makes it easy to nurse.

cutting holes in shirts

I did it. I cut boob holes in perfectly good new shirts. And they turned out great! I bought some cheap t-shirts and camis. I cut slits down each side. I started the hole kind of right under my chest, where the fabric wasn't being pulled quite as tightly so that the holes won't pull open as much and stick out and get lumpy under my clothes. Now I can wear these nursing undershirts so that my tummy doesn't show when I'm feeding Little Girl in public. I love it! Easy, cheap, and very useful!

Old Navy nursing shirt

I found a nursing shirt I like at http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=41578. The Maternity V-Neck Nursing Tops are nice and cool for summertime wearing. And the neckline is high enough for what I like. It's listed as a maternity shirt (although I think it fits fine not being pregnant), so even though I wear a size large, a medium in this shirt fits me well. The only drawbacks are that you you have to order and return it online and that it costs $19.50, although I got it for 20%off and free shipping. It's a super comfey and easy to nurse in shirt, though.

nursing bra help

I'm online shopping for nursing bras. I'm so tired of wearing stupid bras. Anyone have any suggestions? I'd love to have something that's comfortable, supportive, and thick enough to hide nursing pads. That seems like a reasonable request. Why is this so difficult?

skirts

I've always loved skirts and dresses; they feel more like wearing jammies than pants do. Whenever I do wear pants or capris, I change into comfey clothes the moment I come home. With being a very wide range of sizes in the last year, I've discovered how great skirts with elastic waists are. I have skirts that I was able to wear pre-pregnancy, during the entire time I was pregnant and large, after pregnancy, and now. I love it. So, if you're thinking about getting pregnant in the next several years, I recommend investing in some skirts, and don't buy anything dry-clean only.

baby shirts that fit

I found some cheap t-shirts that fit over evalana's head and belly! The Children's Place outlet at the Great Mall had several shirts and sweaters for $3 each. Yea!
We still haven't found any jeans that fit her cloth diaper and belly, though (I didn't even look at Children's Place while we were there, though). My mom had found some at Walmart that seemed to fit around the waist, and she hemmed them up, but she's already outgrowing those.

Cami that covers!

I have finally found a camisole that has a high enough neckline! It seems comfortable, too. I just got it in the mail today from Motherwear. It's this one: http://www.motherwear.com/prod.cfm/cid/100/sid/5830. It looks a little lower-cut on the picture, but it doesn't show any cleavage on me. Yea! Now I kind of wish I had ordered 4 of them because this one will be spit up on soon enough.
