Nursing Friendly Sweatshirts - What to consider

There’s now no need for dull or drab nursing wear. Navigating endless layers of fabric with a screaming baby can (and should) be avoided at all costs. That’s not to say such nursing wear has disappeared altogether, I myself have several unflattering and uninspiring items of breastfeeding clothing buried at the bottom of my wardrobe awaiting an ill-fated trip to the charity shop. I have, however, realised that it’s important not only to buy nursing wear that is easy to use, but also that inspires confidence.

That becomes trickier in the winter months when I also have to factor in warmth, but with Juno Jack’s cleverly designed nursing sweatshirts, hoodies and jumpers available in a variety of colourways, designs and styles, I no longer have to worry!

If you don’t know where to start in finding winter-friendly breastfeeding fashion, let me give you a quick low down on what to look for when searching for a nursing sweatshirt:

Breastfeeding access

One of the most important factors to consider when buying a nursing friendly sweater is the breastfeeding access. You want a design that’s discreet, easy to use and comfortable to wear. All of Juno Jack’s sweatshirts, jumpers and hoodies feature a cleverly concealed, multi award-winning double-ended zip nursing access. This registered TwinZip® design opens both ways as much (or as little) as needed to promote comfortable and confident breastfeeding.

Comfort

Take care of your beautiful post-partum body by opting for soft and comfortable fabrics that keep you warm in the winter but are also breathable enough to carry you through to the spring. Juno Jack’s sweatshirts are made from 100% cotton for a luxurious feel that’s also better for the planet – win, win! Plus, our five-star Lola Hoodies are fleece-lined throughout for extra comfort and cosiness!

Quality

I know all too well that money can be tight whilst on maternity but investing in good quality nursing wear saves in the long run. Buying sweatshirts which wash well and that can withstand the wear and tear of life with your little sprogs is important. Much of the Juno Jack’s nursing wear which I bought for my first baby, I am now re-using with his little brother – now that’s bang for my buck!

Design

Your sweater shouldn’t just feel great, it should look great too. Our bodies can change a lot after having a baby, (I mean our organs literally re-arrange themselves during pregnancy!), but that doesn’t mean we can’t keep our sense of style and identity as a mum. All of Juno Jack’s clothing is designed to look like your pre-baby wardrobe – bright, bold and beautiful! So, no more being swamped by unshapely nursing hoodies, Mumma!

The Juno Jack’s embroidery collection is the ideal range for nursing mums that love to own their individuality. With plenty of customisable options to pick from, choose a sweater colour, thread choice and embroidery design for a finish that is truly yours! With twinning versions available too, our sweatshirts can be matched with minis for your little ones – A-flipping-dorable!

That concludes my list of ‘must-haves’ when it comes to breastfeeding sweaters. Is there anything you think I’ve missed? I’d love to hear what you look for when buying your boobin’ friendly jumpers, so drop a line in the comments!
