Some nursing products are practical, others are pretty but it’s rare to get both and add to that a drop of luxury.

Seraphine have managed it with their truly gorgeous nursing shawl:

I used this so much in my last month of pregnancy when it started to get cold and none of my coats fit around my enormous bump and it was just so comfortable, soft against my skin whilst somehow managing to make me feel stylish at a time when I felt a bit like a beached whale.

I took it into hospital with me and I wore it on our journey home, it makes discreet breastfeeding so simple whilst being incredibly gentle on my baby’s soft face. She loves to cwtch (welsh word which more or less means to snuggle or cuddle up) up in it after a feed and I’ve used it as an extra blanket when out and about.

It’s so versatile that I would recommend it to every pregnant or breastfeeding mama.

Seraphine have also recently launched an online video guide to nursing clothes which is really helpful for new mums who are unsure about what to buy. You can see the video here
