Breastfeeding:Breastfeeding outfit in India
2006-11-22
Name: Teja



Members from India,
I am planning a trip to India with my 3 month old. I am exclusively breastfeeding right now and based in the US. Right now I wear shirt/pant at home when I breastfeed. Other than sari, what type of attire will be comfortable to wear in India during breastfeeding. I will spend some time with my in-laws and might not feel comfortable to always be in shirt/pant in front of them. Sari will be ideal, but is there some type of salwar which I can wear which will be easy to open up during feeding?

I will be grateful for any tips.

The short kurta suits that are in fashion these days helped me.

The regular salwar-suits were too long and complicated to feed.

Short salwar-suits have short kurtas, almost like a t-shirt .. so it went fine infront of inlaws and relatives.

At nights, i used to wear hubby's T-shirt over the salwar (little longer than my t-shirt). Early morning, i wd just change the top.

hope this helps

i found those salwars that come with feeding chains/flap,ooverlapng..

the designs from the neck to chest area,,until tummy area are such that one cannot make out the flap or the opening that is often enclosed by a small button or some hook or a small chain with lots of embrdry on it..,,

they were quite comfortable for me before the elders or outside visits with elders,,
also, ask your tailor to stitch a good one for you,,,,they have more variety of ideas in that,,with all kinds of heavy works and even after you stop breastfeeding,,if you wear,,no one can make out that it was the dress that was made and you were wearng esp used because you were bf !
good luck

RE:Adult breast feeding
I was not breastfeed in my childhood hence the idea of sucking and feeding from a woman's full, engorged breasts has infatuated me. It is a fantasy that drives me wild like nothing else, just the thought of laying my head in a woman's lap while she brings her swollen nipples to my mouth. Ideally, I'd like to finally explore this with the right female. If you are in or near... - Sanjayhyd [View Message]
