Post partum wardrobe

3 replies

BurritoSquad · 06/04/2018 19:34

I'm 3 weeks post partum , 25 years old , size 16/18 with a csection overhang from a previous birth , I don't feel great about being this size but I do not have the energy to do anything about it just yet .
But I've been given a budget of £100-150 to buy a few stole wardrobe bits for spring . I'm also breastfeeding so everything needs to be boob accessible ! Can anyone point me in the right direction or suggest a few items ? I am hopeless at fashion but would really like to look a bit less 'meh' and frumpy !

What about a nice wrap dress? I got one from Oasis last year when BF and it got lots of wear.

I was given this vest called a 'breast vest'. It makes any top breastfeeding friendly. It has been really handy.

I’m 8 weeks post partum and at least a size bigger than normal (about a week 14 at the moment). I currently live in a uniform of leggings, vests and long cardigans. Not the most exciting fashion-wise but comfortable and (hopefully) not too unflattering.
I recommend the postnatal support leggings from Jojo Maman Bebe and the Marks and Spencer support leggings.
I have a few feeding vests but they are not very supportive so I only wear them around the house. Can you get fitted for a proper nursing bra? It’s made all the difference to me.
The cardigans I wear are ones I had while pregnant - And Other Stories usually have some nice ones.
