Oh i KNOW ill attract a lot of "ewwww's" and "omg you FREAK" posts with this question...if you dont like the whole SL Parenting idea turn away NOW....

One thing ive noticed is lacking in the clothing line for mothers, is breast feeding attire. LOADS of maternity stuff...nothing for afterwards. A lot of the babies come with the ability to breast feed..and personally I prefer that.

So..the quandry is...when the baby needs feeding (yes i COULD turn it off but why would i do that when ive paid to have a baby respond and interact ,its all part of the role play) i either have to breast feed very unrealistically through my tshirt etc..or sit with my breasts out and feed. Neither option is rocking my world really...ive searched and searched for a nursing bra or nursing shirt ...nothings out there that i can see.

Im not smart enough to make this sort of thing...if anyone has seen something please let me know OR...if anyone can MAKE something like the above, please message me inworld,

thanks

I've occasionally run across clothes that bare a breast or two. Unfortunately I didn't bother to make a list of them. I think if you search for 'open dress' or 'open shirt' you should find something.

I just remembered I have a 'party shirt' too. You can lift the front. :D

Probably NSFW

I once saw a woman breast feed two babies at once on a packed london tube, it was actually the dexterity that impressed more than anything else..:)

I suggest two things to try if you cannot find ready-made clothing of this type:

1) ask the designers of some of your favorite maternity clothes if they can make this

2) ask lingerie makers that already make half-bras and such if they could make this

Sounds about as pesky as real parenting to me :)

Yes, no matter how lovable they are, kids cramp your style.

You may *think* you are going to run errands today, but no, your schedule has just been altered to clean up vomit and sit at home while they are sick, instead...

Ok, breastfeeding in public, when done well, is hardly noticeable IME. So, what if you wore a tank top bottom layer and a regular shirt top layer. Then, when you want to nurse the baby, take off the shirt layer. YOu will still be covered but theoretically, you will have a breast accessible to the baby. Nursing shirts have like a slit thing, so your equipment could be out with none the wiser.

Does that all make sense?

This outfit shows one breast at a time, I'm afraid I use it for other things than breast feeding.

I've seen in a few places, which I unfortunately don't have LMs for... they might be listed on SLX, though... anyways, sweaters and tanktops with a "pushed up" or rumpled look, that leave one or both breasts uncovered--that might be worth looking into?

I've also seen (again, on SLX) sculpty cloth "drapes" that can be used for blankets (sold in packages, under the "Building Components" section) that might be used as a covering for some areas, if you feel inclined, though I would assume that having the shirt "lifted" on one side and the baby covering the relevant area should be more than acceptable for PG areas...

Those shirts aren't listed under "breast feeding" or similar, though--the one I found in-world was actually in a neko shopping area. ^^

Because otherwise, the SL department of child services gets involved. :(

And avs -do- eat. Mostly time, from what I've seen. ^^

I saw a shirt at a store that has one side uncovered the other closed and normal...Maybe that would be a solution?

The only need sl babies need is a good coat of polish.
Cause babies are made of prims, which are made of plywood :)
