Saree School Lesson 25 - How to Nurse in a Saree
Lesson 25 tells you everything you need to know if you're at an event and need to nurse your baby. Follow these easy steps:
1. Wear a front-open blouse.
90% of tiabhuva.com blouses are nursing friendly (zippered blouses can be worn with the zipper in front or back) and were launched when I had my first son because I wanted a soft stretchy blouse I could comfortably fit in whether I had just nursed or was overdue for nursing.
2. Pin together all pleats.
Pinning together your pallu pleats keeps everything in place when it's time to nurse, making it easier to fix your drape afterwards.
3. Do not attach this pin to blouse.
If you pin your pallu pleats together and to your blouse with the same pin, your pleats will unravel every time you need to take the pallu down.
4. Separate pin to attach to blouse for easy removal.
Using a separate pin to pin the pallu to your blouse ensures that your pleats will stay intact every time.
