tank tops are the way to go. just find lightweight ones that you can pull the neckline down under one breast. wear it under anything,,, then you can pull your shirt up, tank down, and everything is covered, including your belly. i am nursing my 3rd now, and i own almost no nursing tops, i just always used a tank underneath everything. the ribbed ones from old navy work great, dont spend too much on them because theyll get all stretched out at the neck. best of luck, and congrats!!

Hi A.,

Check out motherwear.com. There's lots of great nursing wear that's high quality and very comfy! My son is now 7 and I have just given away the last of my nursing dresses. They still look great!

in public, maybe get one of those belly bandz, topless undershirts, ect. to wear under any maternity shirt. that way you can hike up your maternity shirt as needed and dont have to worry about your stomach being exposed. and for being at home, i would just get a bunch of tanks that you can just pull down from the top.

Hi A.,

Any shirt that lifts from the waist, whether maternity or not, should be pretty simple to BF in when wearing a nursing bra.

since summer is coming i bet there are a lot of tank tops (maternity or just a couple sizes larger than normal) that are good for the "pull aside"

I agree you should talk to your doctor about nursing while pregnant. When I was nursing I found some nursing tank tops at target, the strap unclips and your belly is still covered. I love them and plan on using them again with baby #3. Good luck!

I recently heard about BOOB - it is a line that is sold on www.babycenter.com also sold at due maternity. This is their website - the clothes look really cool. http://www.boobdesign.com/

Here is what the website the Daily Stroll says about them:

boob. It becomes all about the boob for millions of women each year. Trouble is, they can be a bit unruly. Leaking, popping out of your shirt, showing up right when the mail carrier comes to the door. Wouldn't it be nice to simply lift up and pull down just the important part of the top when you need to expose the goods? I mean the last thing anyone wants is to expose their stomach as well during nursing hour. We are not talking "Girls Gone Wild" here we are simply talking chic, discreet, stylish nursing wear. That is boob.

boob is also a maternity brand. Each piece is a Lycra stretch cotton to insure a great fit. Transition wear is key, and two outfits for the price of one is a plus. Wear it before, wear it after and since you will really love it- wear it way after. No one will know. What they will know is that you are super fabulous and smart for your wardrobe choices. With a double layer of fabric over the bust, each nursing top is like your little secret weapon for keeping your style side and your mommy side happy and in sync.

You should stop nursing by now since he is 9 months and has gotten all the important immunization from your milk. With another one on the way it will cause uterine contractions that you don't want. If you feel you still want to breast feed, use a pump. Best Wishes.

When I got pregnant with my last daughter I was still nursing and the doc told me I had to stop because it would cause me to have contractions. I would talk to your doctor.
