I'm looking for a dress to wear to my LO's first birthday party, but I'm having a hard time finding one that's nursing-friendly. Any tips or suggestions?

I bought a button-down dress from Gap. They have a lot of shirt dresses in cute colors and prints.

I have two a gap nursing dress where you can pull the top to the side and a strapless old navy summer dress (with a cardigan over it) I just pull down.

I relied on wrap dresses and wore a cami underneath that I could pull up.

I love this one. It is maternity and nursing. I have been wearing it since early pregnancy though and it does not look maternity.

Seraphine has a lot of nice nursing dresses/tops.
Good Luck!

Wrap dresses are good, I just have to wear a tank underneath. For this one, I wore a nursing tank under it so I didn't have to deal with a tank and a bra. I found one at the outlets a couple of weekends ago....

I agree on looking for a wrap dress - they flatter just about any body type and if you wear a stretchy cami underneath, you shouldn't have a problem with pulling the layers down. I found one at Old Navy a month ago on clearance for $10.

Thanks, everyone! I just ordered a wrap dress from Gap.com so hopefully that'll work out!
@mediagirl: Lovely picture! Your baby (and dress!) is so pretty!

@MungBean: which one did you get? I love Gap's dresses.

What about a maxi dress? Most are low cut or stretchy enough to easily pull down. If it's too low cut I just wear a nursing tank under it.
Or I bought a strapless maxi and wore a jacket or cardi over it.
