I love my fabulous nursing tops! They really do help to make breastfeeding more convenient in private as well as in public. With enthusiasm, I often tell people about my nursing tops, but unfortunately, the most common response is "Nursing Top? What is a nursing top exactly?” If you're breastfeeding and you don't have a nursing top, you don't know what you're missing!
First, what exactly is a nursing top? Good question! A nursing top is just a regular top with "secret" concealed openings in the shirt so that you can pop out a breast and feed you're baby without having to expose your entire belly or breast. If you buy a good nursing top, it should be comfortable, fashionable, and best of all, no one should even be able to tell that it's a nursing top.
There are many different ways that a nursing top can hide its openings so that they are concealed until you need to use them. Check out our Nursing Top Styles Guide for an overview of the different types of nursing tops and nursing openings you can find at BumbleWee Nursing Wear.

Also, keep in mind that in addition to a nursing top, there are many other types of clothes that really help the nursing experience. There are items such as nursing bras (which are essential if you’re using a nursing top), nursing pajamas, and even fashionable nursing dresses! You can also get nursing covers if you still want some extra privacy beyond what the nursing top provides.
