I love Japanese Weekend Maternity!! They are the originators of the During & After concept in maternity wear (a.k.a. d&a™). This concept is revolutionary!! It is a unique design that enables clothing to worn during pregnancy AND after! Each piece has easy, discrete nursing access – so you can nurse your new little baby no matter where you are! Easy access and it covers your belly – what more can a mom ask for?! Not only that, but the d&a concept is so wonderful because you can invest a small fortune in nice maternity clothing – and to think that you are going to wear them for a few months is hard to fathom! So the d&a designs are fantastic because they enable you to get more wear out of your maternity items by making them great nursing items too!
Japanese Weekend also has a TON of non-nursing items, but we only carry their d&a line in our boutique. I love the Japanese Weekend line because it is super-high quality! So many maternity and nursing clothing that can be purchased (elsewhere, not from us!) isn’t as high a quality as you’d like. But not Japanese Weekend – they are the top of the line! Everything is superbly manufactured (in the USA!!) and of the highest standard of quality. I haven’t seen a single item that I don’t like!!
For our Blogiversary Celebration, Japanese Weekend has offered to give away a Pajama Set from their d&a collection to THREE lucky moms!! Yup, you heard that right – 3 moms, 3 sets of pajamas!! And you will get to choose the style (3/4 sleeve PJ, short sleeve sleeve PJ or gown) and color that you want. And best of all – these pajamas can be worn both during your pregnancy and after for easy night-time nursing!! You can see examples of the three styles below.

I like the 2 piece 3/4 sleeve. Since we co sleep I have to wear warm tops since I can’t use a big thick blanket on top.

I like the short sleeve in lavendar, because they are cute and it’s hot in my condo all year round!
I think the 3/4 sleeve is great for keeping warmer when getting up at night to take care of a child.
The 3/4 sleeve looks like something I’d want to wear in the middle of the night when the newborn wants to nurse.
I actually have the middle set of pajamas and like them! Easy to nurse in. I would love to get the long sleeved ones because they would be warmer in these cold wintery days but I’d still be able to nurse!

I really like gowns so I would get that one in hot pink! Size large. Although the one set that’s turquoise blue and brown is really pretty too!

I like the 3/4 sleeve PJ because it looks the warmest for these cold mountain winters.
I like the PJs with 3/4 sleeves b/c I prefer this sleeve length so that I can do things like cooking without getting the sleeves messy.

I like the 3/4 sleeve PJ’s. My arms are always cold, so they would be better then the short sleeve and I’m not really a nightgown kind of girl. I don’t like how they tend to bunch up at night.
I love all JW wear, so comfy! I’m a pants gal, nightgowns get all tangled up in bed!
I’d select the Maternity Nursing Pajamas in black. I prefer to wear sleeveless tops and those capris look oh.so.comfy. I’m currently nursing my 7-month-old…and I plan to nurse for at least another 6 months (probably longer).
P.S. I love the During & After concept. It’s brilliant – and a great way for a mama to “stretch” her maternity wardrobe dollars.

short sleeve 2 piece is my fav! I get so hot during pregnancy and after delivery that these would be the perfect winter PJs for when my little one gets here this winter!

I love the lavender pj’s the best. I love this. It is a pain wearing just t-shirts and pj pants. I feel like we are already working so hard to breastfeed, we might as well feel and look pretty! Us nursing Momma’s deserve it!

I prefer the short sleeve pj set. I live in Arizona. It’s too hot to wear long sleeves most of the year. =)

I love the 3/4 sleeved set in lavender. I’m not one for nightgowns, so I like the pants set and the 3/4 sleeve just looks so comfortable and warm.

I only own one nursing set, it is from Gap maternity, and I love it! There is nothing better than having comfy p.j.s and being able to easily nurse at night (lying down and all)
