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 am expecting the birth of my first grandchild any day now. (Overdue and counting!) Everything out now seems so much nicer and better than when my kids were little. I am most intrigued with the slings/wraps that allow you to wear your baby hands free.
I would love to win this for my daughter who will be nursing as well!

I am still in my first trimester with our first child, so I’m not sure what my favorite product is! However, I think I’m most excited about getting a babywearing wrap (i.e. Moby), a car seat, and a pack and play (which we’re going to use as a crib because we have rather transient lives!)

I really enjoyed having a Velcro swaddling blanket for my last baby. We called him our little burrito, and he stayed warm without my having to worry about loose blankets in his crib.
Pamela says
Would LOVE this for my next baby!

I would love this for my cousin who had a baby in September! My favorite product for new moms is the Miracle Blanket – great for swaddling little Houdinis!
Sarah says
I love my boppy pillow – to sit on, to nurse with, and then for the baby to help with sitting up, tummy time, the works!

Awesome giveaway! I just asked for a baby wrap for Christmas, specifically the Boba wrap (kind of like a Moby, but the fabric doesn’t lose it’s stretch). I didn’t have a wrap with my first two and I’ve heard so many moms say how awesome they are. With two littles running around, I figure I’ll be doing a lot of baby wearing! 🙂

I am most excited to have and use the Boppy pillow for nursing. I am still pregnant and not due until early March but I can’t wait to hold my little bundle of joy and having the pillow for additional support!
