Momzelle Suzy Nursing/Breastfeeding Dress Review

Despite not wanting to breastfeed again, little man decided it was exactly what he wanted to do.  And, it appears we’re in it for the long haul.

Because I wasn’t sure I was going to attempt it again, I didn’t have much in the way of breastfeeding apparel.  And, I have a wedding to attend in March, which means I needed to find something nicer than ill-fitting jeans and whatever shirt I have in my dresser.

Momzelle was kind enough to provide me with the opportunity to review my choice of breastfeeding apparel.  I chose the Suzy nursing dress specifically knowing about the upcoming wedding, and that I’ll likely have a few opportunities to get out of the house and not look too dressed down.

The package arrived quickly, and I immediately opened it to find the dress beautifully wrapped in pink tissue paper,  It made a nice impression and I felt as though ordering from Momzelle would be a perfect gift idea for a new mom or mom to be.

When I mentioned the nice touch, I was informed that the pink tissue paper is usually reserved for nursing bras.  Should you decide to order something as a gift and wish your item to be wrapped similarly, you may email them as a personal request.

The dress itself was lightweight, which is perfect for the weather in FL.  Additionally, it’s super soft and stretchy, which made nursing really easy.  I really enjoyed not having to modify my pre-pregnancy clothing for breastfeeding, not to mention the limitations of what could actually be worn.  And, I can’t wait to wear this to the wedding I plan to attend.  I feel like I can dress it down with a pair of flats or dress it up with a pair of nice heels.  Either way, whatever I decide to wear, I won’t feel out of place in a nicer environment that requires branching out of the jeans and t-shirt routine.

I decided to order the XS, despite measurements indicating I would be a size Small.  I’m glad I did.  The bust fits comfortably and there’s still a bit of room in the waist area … if I’d had this dress available as, say, the dress I wore home from the hospital, I imagine it would have fit perfectly around my belly.  Momzelle‘s website suggests that, for shirts, you should order the size you were used to wearing previously.  I found this to be true with the dress I ordered as well.

Now for the real fun …
