Claire tries out some nursing stuff
Posted: Wednesday 3 February 2010
Here's Claire with the gorgeous baby G.
Claire tried out a few of our styles for us, and we are pleased to say she loved them. Its so important to have real-life pregnant women and new mums to try out our styles. We need to know that our maternity wear and nursing clothes pass muster, and we are so pleased that our lovely mummies give us such positive feedback.
Here's what Claire thinks.....
Widgey nursing pillow: I didn't have one of these with my first baby but did use one at a friends and it was top of my list with baby number two. Really helpful with positioning especially in those first few weeks. Its more than a nursing pillow, it allowed my toddler to cuddle his newborn sister easily, a great support for baby before they can sit up and my toddler like to use it as a pillow at naptime too! Fantastic value for money.
Nursing camisole: I’m not a confident out and about breast feeding and I’m not sure I would have left the house much in the first couple of months without this on! I wore it under a t-shirt, shirt or cardi and its easy to feed without exposing the inevitable mummy tummy!
Maternity & nursing pyjamas: I lived in these for the pretty much the first 6 weeks after my daughter was born by crash c-section, take it from me just throw a cardi over the top and you can roll out of bed to see visitors and you can be straight back there within minutes of them leaving! The only problem I had was what to wear whilst they were in the wash!
Breastfeeding dress: The dress was really comfortable, a brilliant staple item to dress up & down, flattering to the post natal tum and very easy and discrete to feed my daughter in. It washed really well on a cool wash and held its colour. The best thing after 9 months of a maternity wardrobe was that it was so nice to have something new to wear when I came home!
