Becoming Mama: Our Story

When I became a mother, I felt a plethora of things. Joyful about this precious, tiny human I had the privilege to raise. But also unsure of my abilities as a first-time mom. Nervous about my capacity to thrive in this new role while maintaining a career. And uncomfortable in my body, which I wished could make me look like superwoman when I didn’t feel like her.

As the days of my maternity leave ticked away, I looked to my closet for a costume to give me an extra bit of confidence. But it was the first time the excuse “I have nothing to wear” was legitimate. It either didn’t fit, wasn’t flattering, didn’t work for breastfeeding (and pumping), or wasn’t professional enough.

So I scoured the Internet for nursing-friendly fashions. In the wee hours of the night, face lit up by the glow of my cell phone, I would shop while nursing my babe. But package after package I was generally disappointed. 

Exasperated one night, I shared with my husband how I wished I could make my own feedwear to fill the voids I was seeing in the market. “So do it,” he said, so calmly, like there was no question I was capable.

His belief emboldened me. So I sketched. Then researched. And planned. I’ve been pregnant with this idea for two years, and in the spring of 2020 these products will be birthed into the world. I thank my lucky stars that I now get to share this apparel with you.
