Shirt goes up, tank and bra get folded under boob. I don't unclip the bra - so every tank and bra is a nursing tank and bra. It probably ruins the bra a bit but I haven't noticed anything much and I've been doing it a year. And then I covered usually more with a swaddle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-207207 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 03:09:22 +0000 cvbee 207207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: my cheapest suggestion for nursing tanks is to wear your old tanks with the straps under your armpits.....wear it like a tube top. Thats what I do. I wear a nursing bra with them and a button down or pretty much any shirt. </p> <p>And I have a sling-wrap and figured out how to nurse using it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-207198 Sat, 30 Jun 2012 01:20:09 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 207198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wear a good nursing bra (love my elomi), a thin stretchy tank/cami and my shirt. Shirt goes up, tank goes down. I love my nursing tanks, but they aren't as flattering as my bra, so I wear them around the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-207164 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 22:13:43 +0000 ohapostrophe 207164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only discovered them late in the game, but I really like the undercover mama tanks. They attach to any nursing bra and turn it into a nursing tank. So you can pull up your regular shirt, unhook the tank and your bra, and your stomach stays covered. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-207028 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 19:20:28 +0000 mediagirl 207028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wore my Target nursing tank under a maternity tank at the pediatrician the other day. Worked out great because I had to feed her there. I pulled up the maternity tank and down the nursing tank. Worked great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-206961 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 18:21:48 +0000 bpcmarj 206961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: the only one I have is from walmart. It was less than $15, and serves it's purpose. I got it so it fits pretty tight (fir reference, I am a 36/38 DD right now and got a large). I think the brand is bestform, and they have 2 packs online for $25 I think. The clasp is good on that one, which I like! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-206955 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 18:17:07 +0000 regberadaisy 206955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bpcmarj: is there a affordable brand you like? I got one from Old Navy on sale but the top is huge on me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-206953 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 18:14:26 +0000 bpcmarj 206953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to get a couple more nusring tanks. I think they are the easiest for being out. I usually wear one underneath a t-shirt and lift up the t-shirt and pull down the tank. I still tend to use my hooter hider when I'm out in public anyway. I agree with you though that soft cup nursing bras are much easier. I hear button down shirts and a nursing tank work, but I don't have any,that fit anymore! I'm going to head to a thrift shop to get some bigger ones soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/nursing-while-out-and-about#post-206942 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 18:04:43 +0000 regberadaisy 206942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you wear while you're out and about to make nursing easier?</p> <p>Pre-pregnancy I thought I could get away with one nursing tank top and just some deepV or crossover tops. But they don't really cut it. I have a padded nursing bra that is annoying as heck to use. I love my soft nursing bras.</p> <p>I would love to have at least 1 or 2 top/outfit that makes nursing really easy when I'm out. But I'm also ridiculously cheap. Yes, it is a conundrum. </p> <p>Suggestions? </p>
