The Best Nursing Pajamas You’ll Want to Live In

You may find yourself spending a lot of time in your PJs during the first few days and weeks after your baby is born. If you plan to breastfeed or exclusively pump, it’s worth stocking up on a few nursing-friendly pajama options. Regular pajamas work fine too, but nursing PJs are made with features like pull-down or pull-apart chest access—so you don’t have to fully undress during feeding sessions. It’s worth it to add a few to your stash of cozy clothes in your postpartum capsule wardrobe!

They also help you stay warm and covered during those middle-of-the-night feeds. Bonus: most can double as maternity pajamas thanks to stretchy fabric or relaxed fits, which means more bang for your buck.

We rounded up the best options to help build your cozy postpartum pajama stash.

Best Nursing Pajama Sets

If you’re into matching sets (who isn’t?), these comfy, nursing-friendly PJs have you covered—literally. Designed with features like stretchy waistbands and easy-access tops, they’re perfect for feeding sessions, snuggling and just feeling a little more put together during postpartum life.

Best Nursing Pajama Nightgowns

Prefer the ease of a one-piece? Nightgowns are a great option for nursing and pumping, especially when you're half-asleep in the middle of the night. These soft, functional picks let you stay comfy while giving baby quick access—no shirt fumbling required.

Best Nursing Pajama Tops

If you already have bottoms you love (or just live in leggings), these nursing tops are an easy way to round out your sleepwear.  Designed with clip-down straps, button down fronts or stretchy necklines, they make middle-of-the-night feeds much simpler.

Best Nursing Bras You Can Sleep In

If you’ve always been a sleep-in-an-oversized-tee kind of person, that doesn’t have to change just because you’re nursing. Pair your favorite worn-in PJs with a comfy nursing bra that’s soft enough to sleep in—and easy to unclip or pull aside for those overnight feeds.
