** THE GIVE-AWAY IS NOW CLOSED **  The two winners are comments 23 and 34. I will be figuring out who those people are and contacting them shortly. Keenie skipped naptime today. 🙂

The “Born to Nurse” t-shirt from One Creative Mama has become one of my favorites. At two Keenie is still nursing quite  bit, and I like the reminder when I’m surrounded by talk of weaning and children much younger than her that weaned much sooner.

As you can see in the picture she’s all about the fact that she was born to nurse. Like. Mom? Why aren’t we nursing already? I think I asked a fraction of a millisecond ago just as you were pressing the camera shutter button to get this picture. (Just kidding.She asks nicely now. Most of the time.) I tried to get a better picture of her in this shirt. But being two means that she does two things: Move around, and nurse. (More pictures shall follow.)

The Design
The “Born to Nurse” design is just one of several different designs offered by One Creative Mama. It’s got a retro rock and roll-ish style that is cutely trendy with its classic old-school style record as a replacement for the letter “O”. The words, though, are what is important. “Born to Nurse” is a gentle reminder that yes. My child was born to nurse. This is normal. Nurse on!

The Shirt
It’s a silk-screened cotton shirt with a tagless label. The silk screening is soft and pliant and doesn’t change the texture of the shirt at all. (Great for a child that is finicky about appliques, iron-ons or anything that adds stiff spots to their clothes) It holds up well to washing and drying with my preferred lazypants method of “put it in with everything else and hope for the best” (warm wash, regular dry) and doesn’t shrink, fade, or turn into a stiff board the way some things do when recommended wash settings aren’t carefully followed.

Action Shots
I wanted to get some cute shots of Keenie in this shirt. When it first arrived she celebrated by being SO excited that she ran face-first into the edge of the table. Nursing saved the day but she still had a bruise. When the bruise went away we tried again and apparently it was “jump on everything” day followed by “You are not moving therefore it is time to nurse” day which involves a lot of comical expressions when the nurse does not immediately happen and must be located where it is hiding inside of my sweatshirt. I will continue trying, but here are some action shots that show that the shirt is awesome for everyday life. And nursing of course.

Full Disclosure:

I was contacted by One Creative Mama to see if I was interested in doing a review/give-away. My response? Absolutely! I love woman owned businesses and products and enjoy the chance to help them get exposure. I received one free t-shirt so that I could write about it from first-hand experience, and they offered two additional shirts to give away to Nurshable readers. I received no other compensation for the review, and have no prior relationship with the company. I also have no issue with talking about negative aspects of any product purchased or free.
