I love this poncho. It makes breastfeeding so much more relaxing. No worries if your baby comes off from feeding as you are well covered. Less stressful than other covers available. I just wish they had more than one colour.

Beautiful bra, but sizing is way off - it runs quite large compared to other Cake bras.

Nice top to wear and easy to breastfeed discreetly with very little boob showing. Only thing I don't like is lint sticks to it and impossible to get off becuase of the material. It never quiet looks clean.

I got the black one to wear during birth. I have tried it on and It fits really well, and is very comfortable. I love that it is front opening, this will allow me some dignity during birth then can be opened for skin to skin after. Also it can be worn later for nursing. Great quality and multiple uses. I am very happy.

This is a great bra for during labour and during skin to skin time post birth. The fabric is beautiful and soft so it’s great when you’re just getting into breast feeding and feeling a bit nipple sensitive it’s also super comfortable and absorbent for during the night so you don’t have to wear any breast pads. Lastly the press studs make it super easy for access especially when just learning to breast feed.

This is THE ONE. I now have 5 different cake nursing bras and it’s official, this is my favourite. The material is soft but it gives amazing lift for a non-wired bra. It’s so comfortable and looks great. I will get it in every colour! I wear a 36-38G ish (pregnancy and nursing changes) and the XL fit very well
