Nursing Openings

We know that when you are new to breastfeeding and starting to breastfeed in public it can be very daunting at times so you want nursing access which is discrete, but also not obvious to others. Here is a guide which explains each different nursing opening which is detailed for each product on Milkbug, we are sure you will find a access type which suits you.

Front Layer Access

To nurse, lift the front layer to access two generous openings on the inner layer. Slits on both sides allow for easy access and the fact that there are two layers, your tummy and back are never exposed.

Oversized Armholes

The armholes on these clothes are slightly larger, but they have a discrete layer underneath, so you push aside the armholes to access the nursing holes in the underneath layer

Wrap Access

These tops & dresses have a wrap neck, which just need to be pushed aside to access the nursing layers on the single layer underneath. There is no exposure of the breast as the layer remains in place.

Cross-over

This is a ever popular nursing access system, there are two layers which cross over the front which can be lifted easily to get access to the nursing opening.

Pull down/Pull aside neck line

Very similar to the wrap access, in that you push down/aside the neck line to access the nursing openings via the underneath layer. Very discrete and easy.

Inner/Interior Layer

Just pull aside the neck line, and lift up the inner layer to get access to nurse. There are no seams involved in this type of design, just a layer underneath which can be picked up.

Empire Line Access

Nurse by lifting up the top at the seam at the empire line to access the nursing openings underneath. This is a simple nursing access system and very popular across a lot of brands.

Vertical Center Opening

This is a new innovative way of getting access, its also known as access via the princess seam. There is a discrete layer which has the access via the center, you push aside to get access to nursing openings via the under layer
