About Me

Admit it. Most nursing bras are kind of industrial-looking. At least that is what I thought when I was shopping around for a nursing bra. I also found that while breastfeeding is natural and wonderful, it is also difficult and complex and sometimes it really hurts! The best advice I could find was to use warm compresses before nursing and cold compresses afterwards. But nobody could give me any tips for how to make the whole compress thing practical or COMFORTABLE! So, my design was patented and Nizo Wear was born. I firgured while I was at it I should make them pretty as well. Nizo Wear makes nursing bras that are de both functional and pretty. Lace and rhinestones, playful prints, shapely lines, all designed to help you feel stylish and good again.

How often should I be breastfeeding?

I just found this great article about how often you should breastfeed, written by a mother of four. I love how this sheds light on just how different every baby is and incourages you to listed to medical professionals but to ultimately do what feels right for you and baby. My son always fed more than the recommended 4 hours. Never once did I push him to go four hours because someone else said so. If he cried, and there was nothing that seemed to be out of place (wet diaper, too warm/cold, etc) I fed him. Maybe that was why he was consistently in the 90+ percentile for weight?? Needless to say breastfeeding every two hours can be normal for your baby. Side note, my son slimmed down once he started toddling around so have to fear. A fat baby does not mean they will stay that size forever. :) Check out this article, it is such a great read for breastfeeding moms!!
