The Native Wilds Nest is a unique mommy-approved & mommy-made item with multi functions. It’s a super soft and stretchy bamboo item that serves three purposes: a nursing wrap/shawl,blanket, a car seat cover or “nest” and a shopping cart cover.
We ordered ours to try it out and see what it’s all about! The black & white Lyla Nest is our favorite! Available on the Native Wilds website and their Etsy shop.
Native Wilds Lyla Nest $49

We’ve tried many nursing bras in a wide range of prices and here are our favorites ❤️

Why we love it: it’s comfortable, has no wires and is beautiful on the body. It’s lacy but is still lined with cotton which is important to us.
Others that we like:
Lamaze cotton spandex sleep bra for nursing $16
Why we like it: offers support while sleeping with easy capability to nurse in the night.

Some may call me a hippie but I had a beautiful birth with my daughter and this is one of the women who inspired me to leave fear at the door- to my bedroom, not the hospital room. http://birthstorymovie.com/trailer/
“I’m not going to tell you where to give birth but I am going to tell you to ask questions and not to accept the first answer you hear.”
No matter where you choose to give birth, her books Spiritual Midwifery, Ina May’s Guide to Childbirth, and Ina May’s Guide to Breastfeeding are must reads. They changed my life! #birthheroes #inamaygaskin #birthwithoutfear#midwives #doulas #homesweethomebirth
