I’ve been so fortunate that I’ve been able to nurse both of my children with relative ease. I do not take that fact for granted. Although that nasty mastitis/abscess business right after Corinna was born wasn’t fun. Boy did that hurt! What I wish someone had told me about breastfeeding before I became a mom, is that it affects your entire day, not just the times you are feeding. I’ve found that I have to plan my entire wardrobe around nursing friendly dresses and tops. Now that I have my hands full with two little ones, I need the nursing process to go as smoothly and quickly as possible. Today I’m sharing some go-to nursing friendly dresses that are perfect for the fall season!

There are more nursing friendly dresses available than you’d initially realize. While you might think it needs to be from a maternity brand, as long as the dress has buttons down the front or a wrap style, it will most likely work. That’s why I have been wearing this $24 Amazon dress non-stop! The buttons are cute and functional. The dress I’m wearing in these photos is a shirtdress, so again, one of my favorite styles of nursing friendly dresses. I can’t believe it’s only $35! I don’t like to spend a lot on nursing dresses since my body is still changing a bit. That’s why I rounded up a bunch of great nursing friendly dresses for fall that are under $100 below. For fall I try to stick with longer sleeve styles, longer hemlines, thicker fabrics, and more muted colors.
I included non-maternity brands below because I wanted these dresses to be really wearable, no matter what stage of motherhood you’re in. But Motherhood Maternity, Hatch, Boob Design are some of my fave spots to find post-maternity, and regular maternity, clothing! I’ve also heard really good things about Ingrid & Isabel but haven’t tried it. Let me know if any of you have!!
