Wedding outfit that I can breastfeed in...?

**Raspberry beret** · 24-05-2012, 11:20am

I wasn't sure whether to put this in baby or fashion! My brother is getting married at the end of June when Lincoln will be nearly 3 months.

Any suggestions on dresses (or styles) that would work with breastfeeding? It is a church wedding then a marquee in a field so not too formal. I will cover up with a pashmina or something but need a dress that doesn't require me to totally strip to stick a boob out

.

I'm size 10 atm and 5'3", obviously not super confident about my tummy area just now but it isn't too bad - could get away with wearing all but very tight stuff (with some spanx!). And will definitely need to wear a bra but may get away with a strapless bra.

I'd also be grateful if anyone has any suggestions for a wedding outfit for a nearly 3 month old baby boy - it doesn't need to be formal but would be nice if it looked like we'd made a bit of an effort for him.

Thank you!

A nice wrap dress has always worked for me. My best pal got married when Edie was 6 wks old. I wore a wrap dress and it was grand!

I

this IO one and I`m very tempted by it myself even though I`m not with bump or BF.

Or a wrap dress as HD surgested.

Thanks Honey dew, I'll have a look for wrap dresses, I think coast often do nice ones.

That IO dress is gorgeous, Jayne

, I wish they did a sleeveless version in case it is boiling hot!

Ooh, a top and skirt also sounding good, Waxy. I love mint velvet!

Thank you! Gorgeous dresses and not too expensive! I'll definitely buy the orange tesco one as that is reduced to a tenner

and am just looking at the others

Can't help you with dresses but my sister got married when Ethan was 10 weeks old and he wore a John Rocha outfit from Debs. A vest with collar & dungaree type thing in blue & white. It looked gorgeous.

Designers @ Debenhams have some lovely stuff or he only wore it once if you want it. I've got it in 0 - 3 & 3-6

Does it need to be a dress? I would have thought a top and skirt might be easier to manage and give you more choices.

That sounds lovely! Yes, I'd definitely be interested, I'm not sure if he'll be 0-3 or 3-6 at the time though! How much do you want for them?
