BFing vests

Pretty boring but I'm looking for some special bfing vests. I have lots of normal ones but need the easy boob access and tummy coverage. Any recommendations?

TIA

I just use normal stretchy vests and a nursing bra, much cheaper and just as effective!

I used the H&M Mama vest tops and a nursing bra underneath. I just used a nice pashmina or scarf if I needed extra coverage if I was somewhere I felt a little exposed.
A friend passed me some Mamaway tops which were made for bfeeding but I found them very frumpy ( here ), I preferred to just wear my normal clothes with a vest on underneath.
I would pull up my normal top and pull down the vest, the top covered my boobs and the vest covered my tummy so I was totally covered.

Normal stretchy vests from M&S in a silky fabric; think they were 2 for £7 in contrasting fabrics. Totally brilliant.

yy to the top up vest down method

I used normal vests last time for the two years I fed and they were good but I really want a few bfing ones this time. I have a very large chest when bfing and want the extra coverage in certain situations.

I've just purchased some BFing vests from Mothercare - www.mothercare.com/Nursing-Longline-Vest/LT4625,default,pd.html?dwvar_LT4625_color=Black&cm_sp=ProductFeatures--Category%2520landing--Black%2520Nursing%2520Longline%2520Vest&q=nursing&q=nursing

They're on 2 for 1 at the moment - they're nice and long and allow easy access. I intend to wear them with pashminas or long cardigans/shirts when my little one makes an appearance (currently 4 days overdue!)

Mamas and Papas also have some nice vests and tops designed specifically for nursing but I'm also intending on doing what a lot of other mum's have suggested and just wearing a normal vest top under my clothes so that I'm not too restricted on what I can and can't wear whilst I'm nursing.

I used the 'bump bands' from new look under my tops.

Oh, and wore a lot of scarves.
