NAPS & SNACKS Tee
With my first two pregnancies, the old hoodie style from Bun Maternity was my wardrobe staple. With those unavailable right now, this is the next best thing (with a much looser fit- I wear a L at 5’ 7” and 170 lb). Soft, cozy, and the right weight of good quality fabric. The side slit isn’t my favorite access style, but it’s functional.
I love this top! I hope this same fit comes in more colors! I am 5'3 and four months postpartum. I still have 30lbs extra on me and I wear a size small in this top, I was a size small in tops pre pregnancay. Since I am now 150 lbs I was nervous that I would be a medium but nope! The fit of the small is absolutely perfect! It is slightly loose by the tummy and the arms are more fitted. It is flattering in fit and the fabric is not see through, although I would not wear a black bra underneath. I love the nursing access and the fabric is soft blend of cotton/poly etc but it is not a sweaty material. The fit is so spot on I can not say it enough. The arms are fitted but not too tight. I have had a problem with other companies where I am a size small on their size chart but the upper arms on the shirts are too tight for me. This shirt is forgiving and flattering on me.
I absolutely love all my Bun Maternity tops! I read through all of the reviews before my purchases so I hope this will be helpful to someone. I am 3 months postpartum here, 5'3 and 150 lbs. I have both small and medium Bun tops, I was a small before pregnancy but now I wear both. This is the size small in the photo. I have the same style but with the hood in both small and medium and I usually prefer the size small on me. It has extra room where I need it by my tummy and it fit most of my pregnancy as well, but not at the very end. I rotate my Bun hoodies and sweatshirts and have washed them all numerous times, cold gentle cycle and line dry. There has not been any pilling at all. My favorite part is that they are made in USA and I am thankful to support them! The nursing access is amazing, much better than zipper access or other brands that are the traditional pull up style nursing access. I love this side access as it looks more like a regular non nursing top in my opinion. I also appreciate how depp the side access it so that if I am pumping I am able to do so comfortable since the opening is wide. Thank you Bun Maternity for making so many great pieces! The fit and fabric are so good.
I ordered a large which size bigger so it would be lose. It is very comfortable and I am going to also order a medium so I can have a tighter fit also.
I had a couple of these tanks already and needed to order more because I've been living in them in my first couple of months post partum.
Super cozy and easy to breastfeed when wearing it! I love it just got one and want to order more
I have this sweatshirt in 3 colors and could not love it more.
This is by far my favorite nursing top. Super comfy and fits well. My other nursing tops are just a little more annoying to get set up, this top has the best access by far. I wish they made it in more colors—I would buy them all!
Super comfortable, cute, and warm for the Fall. Great purchase!
I bought from BUN maternity to support a women owned business. as well as USA manufacturing. The website states that the fabrics are usa made. I did receive a couple tops with tag reading "imported fabrics". That aside: I am 5'3" 110lbs 32B ordered Small in all.
Stretchy nursing blouse/tee & Side nursing tee - too big. Needed to gift both to someone that fit more like medium. The signature snap tank I wore a lot postpartum out to families house. It fit true to size. Easy to use.
Not soft inside which I didn’t expect but works as it doesn’t get to warm and washes nice. Love it! Got a med and I’m 5”2 168lbs PP
It fits a little loose, which is perfect. I wear a medium but had to get a large due to bust size. It’s soft, comfortable and warm and has not shrunk with several washings! The color hasn’t faded at all either. Absolutely love this pullover!
I wear this shirt multiple times a week. It's super comfortable, lightweight, and easy to nurse in. LOVE IT! More colors please!!!
