At night, you can choose from a variety of nursing gowns and pajamas, but be aware that it's not always easy to find the slits in the middle of the night. Sometimes, simply sleeping in a fitted T-shirt or tank is easiest, since you can simply pull it up and won't have to worry about any extra fabric. If you usually like to sleep in the nude, you may just want to wear a soft sleeping bra. It'll give you some support and prevent you from leaking all over the bed, without being too cumbersome or bulky.

If you think nursing will hinder your ability to surprise your partner by wearing sexy lingerie to bed, think again. A growing number of retailers, including specialty Web sites and catalogs, are now selling sexy nursing gowns and pajamas as well as matching nursing bra-and-panty sets in lace and satin, and in colors like racy red and black. Some even have matching nursing pads.
