If you're expecting a baby, you've probably already bought maternity clothing. But have you thought about what you'll wear after your baby makes their debut? Many women continue to wear maternity tops and maternity dresses as they adjust to their postpartum bodies. However, you may also want to buy new nursing tops and other nursing clothes. Macy's carries everything you need, from nursing bras to postpartum dress options for when you return to work. Here are some pointers on putting together breastfeeding outfits that work for you and your little one.
What to Wear for Nursing
If you plan to breastfeed your baby, nursing-friendly clothes are essential. Start with basics like nursing tank tops. You can choose between different designs. Some breastfeeding shirts incorporate zippers or flaps to give babies easy access. Others are made of stretchy fabric meant to be pulled down or over to the side when it's time to nurse and pump. Macy's also carries nursing-friendly ponchos that layer over breastfeeding tops to provide more modesty. There's no single "right" choice; the best top for nursing is whatever works best and feels comfortable for you and your child.
Designer Pregnancy Styles
If you prefer designer pregnancy clothes, you'll be happy to know that Macy's offers luxury labels you can wear after the baby's delivery, such as Seraphine and Ripe Maternity. If you plan to return to the office while breastfeeding, invest in at least one nursing-friendly dress. Many have layered components on the top that make nursing and pumping simple and mess-free. Are you going to a special event? Try a formal nursing dress. These styles combine elegant, evening-appropriate designs with nursing-friendly features.
From maternity bras to plus size nursing shirts, find pregnancy and postpartum essentials at Macy's.
