Am I just having a dumb moment... Or is there a trick to flipping down nursing bras so they aren't in LO's face or getting soaked in dripping milk?

@Bao: ive folded them in, out, with and without nursing pads...maybe LO is just a sloppy eater.

I pull mine down and then lift my breast out of it... I realize that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. You could also maybe tuck a burp cloth under your breast to keep your bra clean.

I roll my bra down and then fold the nursing pad that was in the cup over it so it will catch any milk that drips!

I flip under but have an Aden and anais blanket underneath for any drips from me or from him.

I stick a prefold cloth diaper in the bra to catch the drips. I had a really over active letdown at first, and LO would let milk just dribble out of his mouth to deal with it.

I do the same as @mrsmenow. I have the same problem when I'm pumping, I've just been putting a nursing pad under the pump flanges

I do the tucking the burp cloth into the bra too. LO latches ans unlatches and my bras get very milky.

I used to use a receiving blanket as an apron to catch milk. It got better as she got older.

I also tuck a burp cloth into my bra or shirt. He's 4 months now and I don't have to do that anymore! No more milky messes thank goodness.
