Pumping breastmilk is boring. Unfortunately, all of the popular hands-free pumping bras are pretty expensive. I’m living paycheck to paycheck trying to save up as much money as possible so I had to find another way to secure my flanges in place while pumping milk.

All you need is a snug tube top. You can use an old one that’s in your dresser somewhere, or buy a cheap one. This tube top off of Amazon is perfect.

This was one of my favorite summer tops pre-pregnancy. Glad I found a good use for it!

To create your nursing bra, pinch the fabric where your nipple is and stretch it out. Then cut out a tiny hole.

Be careful! Don’t pinch and pull your nipple off! Only grab the fabric.

Put your breast pump flanges onto your nipple then stick them out through the hole. Connect the rest of your pump parts and you’re ready to start pumping hands-free!
