Button through nightie

Any ideas where I could buy some jersey cotton/t-shirt material night dresses for breastfeeding? They need not button all the way but half way would be helpful. They dont have to be maternity ones either, just chain store/ supermarket. Have dug out the ones from 5 years ago and funnily enough being in a bag in the loft for all that time has not got rid of the old milk stains! Will also post this on Breasfeeding. Thanks.

I got mine in Asda - it was pink and a size 14 and "granny style" BUT it was cotton and £7 and did the job just fine!

Mothercare have maternity ones - 2 for £22 I think

Mine is a granny one from Matalan (about £7). It's nasty, but will do the job.

just six quid but buttons maybe too high

Ha ha I remember this exact same dilemma. I had a section in the end though so didn't need to worry about it! Hope you find one, they're hideous in the main! I guarantee you won't care when your bundle is handed over though!

Just got a nice one like that from Blooming Marvelous.

Got mine from La Redoute, and they also do pjs. Usually appear in the sale or with a discount.

Also, got a t-shirt for £2 (sale, but only £6 or so full price) from Tesco which buttons down below boob level! I've been looking out for more of them but so far no luck...

Ladies - fantastic, I will have a very focussed trip to the shops thanks to you all. All shops I can get to easily too. Nailpolish - you may regret being sooooo helpful! I've got a family wedding to go to at 35 weeks (currently 25)at a country hotel. Ideally I would have done a "buy one get one free with the marquee company" Ideas welcome - I'm 40, 5'2" with short blonde hair, husband wearing last year's M&S linen suit (sand) and DS (aged 5) will probably wear smart or linen trousers and shirt. My mum has a linen suit too so the parcel shelf is full up with clothes that dont need to be crushed. I think I need something I can dress up but also wear to a 40th barby in the garden the following week. If you have a few spare minutes....

nailpolish · 01/05/2008 18:07
