9 Breastfeeding-Friendly Swim Suits That Make Nursing At The Beach A Breeze

by Olivia Youngs

Swimsuit season is upon us, and for many women, finding a suit that gives their child easy nursing access is a priority. If you're a breastfeeding mom, you might be struggling to find the perfect suit that will allow for easy access without having to untie everything or take off your entire suit. Luckily, there are plenty of breastfeeding-friendly swimsuits on the market for every body type and breast size.

Whether you're planning a big summer vacation, a few trips to the beach, or just want to soak up the sun in your back yard, you shouldn't have to compromise your comfort just because you're also nursing. Although most swimsuits have pretty easy access to the goods, some are much more convenient than others.

No one has time to untie a bunch of strings or hold up one side of your suit while the other one is dropped for a feeding. Some of these swimsuits are specifically designed with the nursing mom in mind, while others are made for anyone but just happen to be perfect for popping a boob out and feeding your baby.

So no matter where your summer plans take you, with the perfect suit in tow, you'll be able to feed your baby and look ridiculously good while doing it.
