Any new mom knows that shopping for a swimsuit isn’t only a matter of style and fit. If you’re breastfeeding, you also have to consider giving your hungry baby easy access for feedings, especially if she’s screaming at the top of her lungs! Luckily, nursing bathing suits come in so many cute styles with functional features — like straps that unclip and a neckline that pulls away — that you don’t have to sacrifice looking cute at the pool this summer.

Just in time for the lazy days, we found the best bathing suits for nursing moms, including button-down one-pieces, clip-down bikinis, maternity swim shirts that provide extra coverage and more fun styles that start at just $16. Nursing friendly bathing suits have come a long way: these six are just the tip of the iceberg.

A Button-Down One-Piece That Feels Like PJs

Amazon’s number one best-selling maternity one piece is this super stretchy Summer Mae suit that’s as comfy as your favorite tank top or pajamas and even has a bit of ruching on the side to help camouflage whatever bit of baby bump remains. “Looks good postpartum and buttons on top make it easy to nurse,” wrote a happy mom.

An Ocean-Inspired Bikini That Clips Down

Target

Attention bikini lovers: this turquoise top is a stunner seaside, and when it’s time to nurse, just unclip the straps and enjoy a little siesta with your babe under the umbrella. The Isabel Maternity top even has sewn-in cups for some extra protection.

A Maternity Shirt with UPF

Did you know a nursing swimsuit doesn’t necessarily have to be what you picture traditionally? This maternity shirt by Motherhood Maternity is the perfect solution for new moms who want a bit of privacy while they nurse and a bit of sun protection: this one has UPS 50+ built in.

A Red-Hot Swimsuit with Pull-Away Neckline
