another tip for breastfeeding moms UPDATE

Get PJ's that have snap or button down the front so easy and work like a charm when breastfeeding you can just put it back on 123. I wish I bought more of these. THe old lady pj's

Re: another tip for breastfeeding moms

where did you find had a good variety of these kinds of PJs?

Thanks for the tip

Re: another tip for breastfeeding moms

I have been looking all over for these & have had a difficult time finding anything with snaps & buttons....

Re: another tip for breastfeeding moms UPDATE

believe or not walmart cheap and perfect for what you need. I got them a size larger and they have draw string and elastic waist and fully button down the front. I got some short sleeve ones. Hope this helps. I did care for a robe and stuff. i would just wear my nursing bra and wore the shirt almost like a cardigain and then button it back up.
Also I didn't wear half the stuff I brought with me. you will be bleeding nurses coming in and checking on you for the first 2 days I wore the gown and when I had company I would put on a terry cloth bathing suit cover up which was perfect because if I had to feed her I could just pull down the dress. Bring flip flops I did bring a pillow not really feeling the boppy right now. Lipstick or lipgloss my lips were so white from just the chapstick. i need to feel alittle human after. Take whatever they give you and don't be afraid to ask. Use everything. Drink your water. If I come up with more things I will update.

Please ask any questions you may have.

Re: another tip for breastfeeding moms

I totally agree. I have 2 pair and I need to find some more.

My PJs don't have a buttong they just have an opening by the boob. I got them from Old Navy.

I found a few (and decent) button up nightgowns/snap front night gowns at Kohl's.


I packed a button front night gown and a matching robe. Hopefully that will be okay. Besides that and my going home outfit, I plan on wearing hospital gowns

KOHL'S! i was just there today and got three shirts that button-down with the matching bottoms (in the PJ section). This way I can mix and match a little. They also had a lot of cute nightgowns with buttons.

Re: another tip for breastfeeding moms UPDATE

I still wear the button down ones
