The Early Days Nursing Sweatshirt is praised for its thick, soft, and luxurious material, which is ideal for the first few weeks post-birth. Customers also appreciate its relaxed, roomy fit, perfect for postpartum recovery. However, it's recommended to wash before wear due to shedding.

"This is super soft and I like the idea but the button is hard to button becuase of the way the button hole is cut in one side of the fabric but not the other to conceal the button. Also, the fabric edge doesn't lay flat like it orginally did after washing. It folds right at the button. Some serious improvements can be made, especially for the price tag, but I kept it because I like the cut. I'll likely alter the button closure somehow to be easier."
"Sleeves are a bit short for petite size, they're more 3/4 length but the body length works great for me who is 5'2""
"Great"
"I was a little unsure about the one size fits all thing, but I am pretty obsessed with this top. Wore it home from the hospital, and know I’ll be wearing it long after postpartum. Worth the investment - I wish it came in more colors! The only thing I’m curious to see is how the inside-out button that holds the crossover together at the chest holds over time."
"Very comfortable and will be great for nursing!"
"Love it!"
"Among the softest things I own. Relaxed fit looks great on the full range of sizes I've been before, during, and after pregnancy. Easy access for nursing is so helpful!"
"I love this sweatshirt. I got it to wear PP and to feel a little more put together, especially when we are having visitors. I wish I had more! It's so easy and convenient for nursing--not a lot of buttons, soft for baby and me, and it doesn't show milk leaking because of the fabric and color. I wish there was a white and camel/neutral color of this sweat shirt and would buy more!! This is o/s only--it's not super oversized, which is a pro and con--but fits very nicely. (I was a size 6 pre-preg.)"
"Very cozy! However shedding is substantial. Something to consider."
"This is the perfect nursing sweatshirt. It’s so incredibly soft, I already want another one."
