It sounds encouraging.<br /> Karymk, that is an excellent solution. Does anyone know of a similar topper in what is basically sweatshirt material or fleece?<br /> Lenni, you are very wise and understand the needs of a new mom. I really like the Cudfleduds version. The others don't look like they would provide as much modesty coverage but look easy care and comfy. Thank you for all the links and tracking down so many toppers. What brand and style of nursing bra tank tops do you recommend? DDIL is a size small, about 5'5". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415530 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 22:10:53 +0000 lisaflex 1415530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i have three of them<br />i was in cold on gentle and line dry</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415528 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 21:54:16 +0000 Suja 1415528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a couple of these that I wore while nursing my son. &nbsp;I love them! &nbsp;They are so warm and comfy and gave me enough coverage that I could use them while nursing outside without an additional nursing cover. &nbsp;I honestly didn't even look at the care instructions and just put them through the washer and dryer with all the other kids stuff. &nbsp;They might have shrunk a tiny amount, but not much. &nbsp; Highly recommend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415461 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 16:52:09 +0000 Lenni A 1415461@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b></b>I keep looking at these myself (I like the plaid version) but the washing instructions have made me hesitate too. &nbsp;I'm a mom of three including a 2 year-old and I enjoy and wear my clothes that are easily washable more than those that require special care, including even a special gentle cycle. &nbsp;(I do hang dry many items and find that isn't inconvenient.)</p> <p>For a new mom, I would definitely err on the side of easy care. &nbsp;Everything gets messy from everything imaginable. &nbsp;I found I couldn't wear anything more than once and sometimes had to change my own outfit during the day! Babies make so much laundry!</p> <p>Here are some cuddly fleecy things that would work well for a new mom, nursing or not. &nbsp;You might find that more gear-oriented shops/departments might have tops that wash well.</p> <p>Also, I personally found nursing bra tank-tops perfect for breastfeeding and would wear them under just about everything.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.cuddlduds.com/women/layer-by-style/wraps-hoods/secondlayer-fleece-wrap.html">http://www.cuddlduds.com/women.....-wrap.html</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://sahalie.blair.com/p/womens/sweaters/womens-kelsey-sweater-fleece-zip-jacket/pc/1921/sc/1923/96329.uts?rank=rank13&amp;count=500&amp;q2=1923~Sweaters&amp;store=13&amp;page=2&amp;q1=1921~WOMEN%27S&amp;intl=n&amp;q=*&amp;sc=N&amp;x2=c.t2&amp;x1=c.t1">http://sahalie.blair.com/p/wom...../sc/1923/9</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1018148&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=119918162">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=119918162</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=8793&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=140299012">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....=140299012</a></p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://athleta.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=1005761&amp;vid=1&amp;pid=918829002">http://athleta.gap.com/browse/.....=918829002</a></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415371 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 04:15:29 +0000 karymk 1415371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great idea for a nursing mom!

I got it in the smaller of the two sizes I could have gone for, and it's held up&nbsp;just fine with no noticeable shrinkage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415363 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 02:56:08 +0000 Anonymous 1415363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy and Kelly, thank you for your helpful comments. I'm not sure if this piece is a good idea. I wonder if sizing up would allow enough for shrinkage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415294 Thu, 25 Dec 2014 16:26:46 +0000 kellygirl 1415294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have it in taupe and haven't noticed shedding. I machine wash on gentle and air dry it because I can't afford it to shrink. I *think* it would be fine in the dryer on gentle but haven't tried it. It would make a great nursing piece in my opinion. It's very soft and cozy too! I've seen these at Marshall's for lower than the sale price I saw at Nordstrom, FWIW.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415288 Thu, 25 Dec 2014 14:35:19 +0000 amiable 1415288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have it (or a last year version anyway). &nbsp;It machine washes just fine, but it sheds fuzzies all over whatever I wear under it (namely, my black pants were covered with lint from it). &nbsp;I've only worn it once (for a trade show), so I'm not sure whether it keeps doing it, or whether it only happens when it's new.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bobeau-topper-question#post-1415286 Thu, 25 Dec 2014 14:28:05 +0000 Anonymous 1415286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My DDIL is looking for tops that lend themselves to nursing. She likes the look of this Bobeau topper. The washing instructions are to hand wash and line dry. Does anyone have this piece? Can it be machine washed and dried on delicate? A new baby leaves no time for hand washing. Your thoughts are appreciated. </p>
