World Breastfeeding Week: Undercover Mama Review {&} Giveaway


When Jacob was a baby, Matt used to work at the computer at our church. This meant we would sit in the very back of the church. To keep Jacob quiet, I would often nurse him during the service. Sitting in the very back, I didn't have to worry too much about if anybody would see anything. Unfortunately, I realized too late that the ushers were even father behind us and they were getting an awful view of my back flab while I nursed! Yuck! 


I wish I would have known about Undercover Mama at the time! Undercover Mama is a neat concept. It's just like a nursing tank top but without the straps. It can attach to any nursing bra and can turn any shirt into a nursing shirt! No more back flab!


There are two ways to attach the Undercover Mama to your nursing bra. It comes with a hook and a loop. You can either attach the loop to your nursing bra clasp or you can slide the hook in the bra strap. Here is an image below describing the attachment. 

 

I chose to attach it using the hook. I found this the easier option. I think it will take more practice attaching and detaching it. Right now, I am unable to do it one-handed.

The concept behind the Undercover Mama is amazing. Now I no longer have to look for clothes that are easy to maneuver into nursing tops (low cut, stretchy, etc) because I can take any shirt I own and stick the Undercover Mama underneath it and voila! An instant nursing-friendly shirt! They can also be attached to any non-nursing bra as well and used as an undershirt when you are finished breastfeeding.

Undercover Mama shirts are machine washable and made from 95% cotton and 5% spandex. It is recommended to get them in a size smaller than your normal shirt size {which I'll admit, made me really nervous but it actually did end up being a good fit for me!} I think you will really like the Undercover Mama, whether or not you are currently nursing!

BUY IT: You can purchase an Undercover Mama at www.undercovermama.com. They range in price from $24.99 to $26.99. They come in a variety of colors and are even available will lace trim.

  1. Wish I had known about this for the last 13 months! So cool!

    I decided to breastfeed for several reasons. The big one, I suppose, is my Mom breastfed so I saw my brother and sister nurse.

    I wanted to give my babies the best start I could, which I felt, meant breast milk. It is also super cost efficient so why would I let perfectly good milk go to waste? It was something I always knew I wanted to do.

  4. I wanted to breastfeed because it was what was best for baby and I honestly didn't want to spend money on formula when my body could make something for my baby for free. Luckily it all worked out and I nursed her for 17 months. I'm hoping to do the same with #2.

  6. I breastfeed because it is best for my daughter, gives us tons of bonding time, and builds her immune system!

  7. I breastfeed because it's the best for my baby! The fact that it came really easy for me made it possible for me to pump additional milk for donation.

  9. I think health wise, it is the best and I want to do it as long as I can. I think that the fact that it doesn't cost extra helps A LOT! But mostly I just think it's the best for his system and I love when the little guy is breastfeeding!
