UPDATE: This giveaway is now closed.
Congrats to: Emily (remiersma@…)
During the months leading up to Nora’s birth, I spent a lot of time researching different products for babies and new moms. I borrowed many items from friends and family, and also did a lot of shopping on Craigslist to find rock bottom prices on gently used items for the nursery, for the baby, for our house, etc.
And while I am thrilled with the frugal choices I made and all the money I saved, I really wanted to find some high-quality nursing clothes brand spanking new — just for me!
Since I am planning to nurse for several months, I wanted a few nursing tank tops that I could wear every day and that would allow me to discreetly nurse.
In my many online searches, I came across Glamourmom.com — which is an awesome company that specializes in high-quality, “glamorous” nursing and maternity apparel for every size and shape.
I’ve been wearing their Nursing Bra Long Tanks almost every day for the past 3 weeks, and I absolutely LOVE them! I might even continue wearing them after I’m finished nursing!
{in my Glamourmom Nursing Tank just hours after Nora was born}
A few reason why I love this tank:
- They are really long — which means they fit my long torso and I don’t ever have to worry about my stomach hanging out {and I’m sure most new moms don’t really want their stomach to be visible!}
- They are SO comfortable. I wear a nursing tank every single day under whatever I’m wearing so I’m thrilled with how comfortable they are.
- They are slimming. There is just enough spandex in these tanks to really “hold you in” — which is something my post-baby-belly is very thankful for 🙂
- They are very modest. Although I’m definitely NOT one to nurse in any type of public setting, it’s still nice to be able to nurse without baring all — even when I’m just at home! As you can see by the image below, these tanks make it almost impossible to tell if you are nursing or just holding your baby.
- They look like a “normal” tank top. This may sound trivial, but when you know that you’ll be wearing nursing attire for the next several months of your life, it’s nice to have things that look normal and don’t scream “I’m wearing a nursing top”.

I’m still pregnant (due in 3 weeks!), but my favorite product for new mamas so far is anything by Earth Mama Angel Baby. I have used the stretch oil on my belly throughout my pregnancy and ordered a bunch of their products for me to use postpartum as well as a couple products for the baby!
Kristy says
I liked you on facebook. I would love to win. I nurse my 2 month old but I don’t have any nursing clothes. I didn’t realize how nice they were until you did this post.

My “must have” newborn lifesavers were swaddles, nursing tanks, lanolin cream, diapers and Joel!

I’m now nursing daughter #5, but I’ve never had one of these nursing tanks. They look great! My favorite product for new moms is large swaddling blankets. All my babies have loved to be swaddled.
Muriel says
I love my son’s swaddle blankets (so does he – 6 days old today).

I was very thankful for cute cloth bibs for my sons to wear – they both spit up A LOT and it saved me from changing their outfits 8 (or more) times a day. I also like the Baby Bjorn plastic eating bibs – they have a great food catcher that was worth every penny that I spent on it!

I loved my boppy with #1 one but have barely used it with #2. The bouncy seat was much loved with both.
Jessica says
Our bouncy seat was irreplaceable when our daughter was a baby- it was the only way I got anything done! I know we’ll be using it a lot again with baby #2 due in Feb 🙂
Meghan says
My favorite product for a new baby is muslin swaddle blankets. They are the greatest!

I love swaddle blankets and the baby bjorn!

I like sleeper blankets for baby. They keep baby safe and warm. I also cannot be without my boppy pillow. It is so useful for feeding. My arms never tire.

Undercover Mama tanks are great too–they attach to your nursing bra and make them into a tank sort of…hard to explain but they are great! 🙂

I’m not currently pregnant (just had a miscarriage) but when I was, my favorite product was the Bella Band, and I was most excited about using my K’tan wrap for the baby!
