It’s a big financial burden to buy a lot of nursing clothes that you only use while breastfeeding, isn’t it?! Just because you’ve become a mother doesn’t mean you have to wear the same clothes every time… Here’s some good news for those of you who feel that way ♪ With the currently popular “nursing straps,” you can easily breastfeed in regular clothes! We’ll show you how to make them yourself with just a few materials!
What is a nursing strap?
Nursing straps are straps that hold down your clothes so they don’t fall down while you’re breastfeeding. Do you have any of these problems when breastfeeding?
- It’s a hassle to open and close the buttons
- I don’t have any clothes specifically for breastfeeding
- It’s hard to hold clothes away from the baby’s face while breastfeeding
If any of the above applies to you, we recommend using a nursing strap. Nursing straps look like accessories at first glance, but they can hold your clothes in place while nursing.
Even if you’re wearing regular clothes that aren’t for nursing, you can concentrate on nursing without worrying about your clothes getting in front of your baby’s face, and they also prevent your arms from getting tired.
When nursing, it’s often hard to wear cute clothes. You always prioritize functionality over fashion, and your own preferences take a back seat…
With a “nursing strap,” you can easily breastfeed in any outfit, and you can also wear it around your neck as a necklace ☆
Plus, you can breastfeed without your clothes getting in front of your baby’s face, so you can get a good look at your baby drinking from your breast.
What was the reaction of people who have actually used it?
We will introduce some experiences from mothers who actually use nursing straps.
I should have bought it sooner
It’s so convenient that I wish I had used it with my eldest son too! You put it around your neck, pass it under the clothes, and then put it around your neck again to lift up the clothes. It’s obvious, but it’s so easy to not have to hold it down with your chin!
Many mothers are unaware of the existence of nursing straps. Once you use one, you’ll never want to let go of them because of how convenient they are.
I made it using rubber bands from a 100 yen store!
Before giving birth, I made a nursing strap out of a hair tie from a 100 yen shop. I’m glad it was made of hair tie! When I burp my baby after feeding, he often vomits up. I think a store-bought one would have been unsanitary.
It’s all about ideas! I never thought that a hair tie from a 100 yen shop could be used as a nursing strap. This is good enough for home use.
