I have 2 winter weddings to attend soon. Any suggestions on what to wear that will allow me to BF?
I just know I'll end up with milk or dribble stains but don't want to spend hours in the toilet because my dress is all or nothw8889999ing access!

Im.not sure, I always wonder why they do nursing tops/dresses in maternity fit. Id imagine itd be fine given the material, unless you are like a size six

I've got this for a christening on Sunday - can't wait to wear it as its a very flattering fit here

I wonder that too, it seems really common to have maternity wear that allows BF. Will have to order and check fit, I was hoping to reuse a dress of mine but non suitable and at least with 2 weddings I will get the use out of it.

Thanks stuck. I like the long sleeves given the time of year.

I did cowl ish neck top with a bit of stretch, plus bolero type thing, and a skirt. So top pulled down, with bolero for a bit of modesty.

Wrap dresses are not as great as they look as you have to half-undress to get the second boob out.

Dote do fabulous dresses - I just got this one to wear to a wedding in a few weeks www.milkbug.co.uk/9th-Street-Breastfeeding-Dress.html I'm wearing it with a bolero cardi to keep toasty.

I had a wedding to go to recently, so I booked a (free) personal shopper in Debenhams and told her the kind of thing I wanted. She chose loads of dresses for me to try on, which would be suitable for bfeeding, and I eventually settled on one from Phase8. Even better that it was in the sale!

Thanks for the new suggestions, I hadn't even thought of the problem with wraps, its not a style I usually wear either so good tip, thanks.

Check out phase eight, you might be able to get away with one that has a cross over front if the fabric is stretchy, they often have something in there
