I am terrible with the cover and try to find ways to not need to use it.<br /> @mrsjazz: LOL. I don't have enough patience and am usually too hot for the 2 top system. Seems really popular though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breastfeeding-friendly-inexpensive-swimsuit#post-222525 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 12:43:49 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 222525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about something like these from Target? It's a combo halter/strapless - I think you can leave the neck strap tied, and just pull down one side. My maternity suit is like this, and I'm pretty sure I could breastfeed in it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-multicolored-dot-1-piece-swimsuit/-/A-13996318" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-multicolored-dot-1-piece-swimsuit/-/A-13996318</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-black-bandeau-one-piece-with-charm-detail/-/A-13976459" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-black-bandeau-one-piece-with-charm-detail/-/A-13976459</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-1-piece-swimsuit-with-neck-tie-blue/-/A-13842913" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/merona-womens-1-piece-swimsuit-with-neck-tie-blue/-/A-13842913</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-womens-1-piece-bandeau-swimdress-assorted-colors/-/A-13957026" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-womens-1-piece-bandeau-swimdress-assorted-colors/-/A-13957026</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breastfeeding-friendly-inexpensive-swimsuit#post-222504 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 12:29:56 +0000 brownie 222504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Speedo one piece. I just pull on arm out of the sleeve and it works great. It is also a convertible one so it is 2 colors for the price of one. I got it onsale for $30 at Big 5 a few years ago. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breastfeeding-friendly-inexpensive-swimsuit#post-222447 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 11:59:09 +0000 Weagle 222447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear a top from Target with some bottoms that I already had. It works great, and if it does get too stretched out after a summer of breastfeeding in it, I'm only out maybe $15. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/breastfeeding-friendly-inexpensive-swimsuit#post-222431 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 11:52:20 +0000 chopsuey 222431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought a tankini top from Destination Maternity ..

I nurse DS2 about five times a day, and know that I will have to nurse him while I am wearing a swimsuit.</p> <p>Has anyone been able to find a supportive, inexpensive one-piece or tanking swimsuit? I need something with straps, but also something that I can pull down just one side at a time. I've considered strapless, but found that my little Mr. Grabbyhands will nearly pull off the entire top, so that a definite no-go! Halter tops dont work because both sides then fall down. I'm also looking for something around $40, which has been a challenge.</p> <p>Any advice? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cami-secret-tops-for-nursing-clothing-modesty#post-220377 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:44:07 +0000 mrsjazz 220377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: Exactly why I have the two-shirt system.

I wore cami's in case I accidentally exposed belly rolls and my back :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cami-secret-tops-for-nursing-clothing-modesty#post-220291 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 11:08:23 +0000 pastemoo 220291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just figured out a way for me to be more comfortable nursing away from home!</p> <p>I prefer the clip down, button down, or snap down (not pull up or pull down) tops for nursing. This means there is a lot of top boob showing. Well--you know those fake camisole tops that they sell to cover cleavage? They are great for covering a lot of the boob and still leaving the nipple free for nursing.</p> <p>WIN!</p> <p>Anyone else have any alternative ways to make you feel more comfortable nursing in public? </p>
