Sportswear for breastfeeding

Sportswear-style sweatshirts, T-shirts, and tank tops: our nursing activewear is perfect for walks, light workouts, and getting back into shape after having a baby. Thanks to their two side zippers, you can breastfeed before or after your workout without having to change clothes. They’re available in sizes S through XL.

What's included in the nursing activewear collection?

Here you'll find our nursing sweatshirts (from €69 to €73), perfect for warming up or getting cozy after a workout, our Breastfeeding t-shirts solid-color or printed tops (from €33 to €44), and our nursing tank tops (€37 to €38), the lightest pieces in the collection.

These are casual, sportswear-inspired tops designed for active moms. They aren't technical clothing: for intense workouts, pair them with your usual sports bra and leggings.

Why choose a nursing top for working out?

With a breastfed baby, timing is key: many moms breastfeed right before the session—to feel more comfortable—or right after. With a regular top, you have to change or undress every time.

With our tops, all you have to do is unzip the side zipper: you can breastfeed at the park, on the sidelines, or in the locker room, then zip it back up and be on your way.

What activities are they suitable for?

They're ideal for gentle and moderate activities: walking with a stroller, leisurely hikes, postnatal yoga, Pilates, stretching, or classes with your baby.

For running, fitness, or high-impact sports, wear a nursing sports bra underneath. A T-shirt or tank top serves as an outer layer, and a nursing sweatshirt is ideal for warming up and cooling down.

How should I breastfeed before or after a workout?

Unzip the side of the top on the side you're breastfeeding from: your baby has direct access to the breast while the rest of the top covers you. The two zippers let you switch breasts or use a double breast pump if you're preparing a bottle for your baby's caregiver.

If you're wearing a bra underneath, choose one with easy-to-open cups so that the zipper and the bra open at the same time.

When should you start exercising again after giving birth?

You can usually resume walking quickly, at your own pace. For more strenuous activities, it’s often recommended to wait until after your postpartum checkup and pelvic floor rehabilitation, especially before running or jumping.

While breastfeeding, be sure to stay well-hydrated before, during, and after exercise. Consult your midwife or doctor for advice on how to resume exercise.

How do you put together a sports and nursing outfit?

For a workout: a nursing bra, a tank top or Breastfeeding t-shirt, workout leggings, and sneakers. Keep a nursing sweatshirt in your bag for the trip home, especially if you're breastfeeding outdoors.

For an active day with your baby: a sweatshirt, sweatpants, or jeans and comfortable sneakers. It’s the perfect outfit for a stroll in the stroller, running errands, and feedings.

Which styles should you choose depending on the season?

On sunny days, tank tops and T-shirts are the most comfortable—worn on their own or layered over a sports bra.

In the fall and winter, our nursing sweatshirts keep you warm during walks and outings. The side zipper keeps the sweatshirt from riding up when it's cold.

How do I choose the right size?

In general, choose your usual size: the zippers should fall just below the bust. If you're wearing a thick sports bra underneath, going up a size might be more comfortable with T-shirts.

Our tank tops run small: we recommend ordering one size larger. Always check the sizing guide on the product page.

How should you care for them after exercising?

Let the top air dry before putting it in the Cart, then wash it inside out at a maximum temperature of 30 °C, with the zippers closed. Do not iron or use a garment steamer before the first wash.

Avoid using the dryer and excessive fabric softener. Iron printed and embroidered items inside out—never directly on the design. Always follow the care label instructions.

How long does delivery take?

Our non-customized tops are shipped within 48 business hours. Custom embroidered items are shipped within approximately 7 business days. You will receive a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number.

What is the return policy?

You have 14 days after receipt to request a refund for an item that does not meet your expectations; exchanges are not permitted. Personalized items with embroidery cannot be returned or refunded. Please contact our customer service team in advance at bonjour@23maiparis.com.
