Boob Nursing Wear

The idea for this style of nursing wear was developed on a cold, windy day in 1999 by Mia Seipel - the founder of Boob. She was having coffee with her sister in a park in Stockholm and came up with the idea while she watched her sister nurse her newborn son with her waist exposed to the freezing cold wind.

She came up with the idea there and then, and decided mothers should be able to nurse in comfort and style. Since then they have brought stylish breastfeeding clothes to new mums across Europe and around the world.

Boob Nursing Wear is our best selling brand of breastfeeding clothes.

Finding the Right Size

The best measurement guide for your nursing wear is your bust size. Boob Nursing Wear comes in a size range from XS to XXL.

Size XS	European Size 32/34	Bust Measurement 74 to 80cm
S	34/36	80 to 84cm
M	38/40	88 to 92cm
L	42/44	96 to 100cm
XL	46	104 to 108cm
XXL	50	112 to 116cm

If your bust measurement is in between two sizes, you should choose the smaller size for a tighter fit - the garments are designed with an element of stretch, as you loose your pregnancy weight. You may want to order a larger size if you like a looser fit, but bear in mind your bust may not be able to hold up the overlapping layers.

Boob Nursing Wear Corporate Responsibility

In all aspects of bringing you beautiful nursing tops, Boob bear in mind the environment. Some examples of their thought for the future generations are as follows:

Production - all production is based in Europe. Boob ensure that all employees are paid a fair wage, no child labour is used and health and safety is paramount.
Toxin Free Material - by complying with OEKO-Tex Standard 100 it means that you know your garment is 100% free of toxins that can be harmful.
Organic Cotton - in 2007 Boob introduced organic cotton to their range, by 2010 all but 8 styles will be made from Organic Cotton. TThis helps the environment by using no chemical pesticides or fertilizers. This is also better for the health of the farmer.
Lyocell - the remaining 8 styles are made from lyocell. One of the great features of lyocell is the environmentally friendly nature of the manufacturing process. The raw material is low-grade recycled paper. The solvent is almost completely recycled, with almost no losses to the environment.

Washing and Care Advice

For best results wash your garments inside out
Machine wash with similar colours at 40 degrees
Do not use bleaching washing powder
Shape when wet and hang dry. Do not tumble dry. Flat dry larger items to avoid stretch, especially those items with viscose.

Removing Breast Milk Stains

Breast milk can leave grease stains. The thing is to treat the stain as soon as possible. If the stain does not go away, treat with a liquid detergent, leave for a while and then wash according to the instructions above.

Boob Nursing Wear Reviews

Madeline Jones, March 2 2009

I was determined to breastfeed my second baby after being unable to do so with my first, but have to admit that I did lack some confidence in the early weeks when feeding in public. When both you and your new born baby are learning the art of correct attachment you can feel quite exposed which can make you feel tense. I chose the Boob Nursing Tops on a recommendation. Lovely colours, great quality and they helped me to feed discreetly and confidently whilst out and about. No bare shoulders, so I even felt happy feeding whilst watching my daughter take part in her sports day, despite being sat in the middle of a school field and on full view of all the other Mums and Dads. They really did help me to relax whilst learning a new skill and meant that I enjoyed feeding whilst out and about as opposed to trying to get home before that next feed was due.
