Frequently Asked Questions

While all of our breastfeeding clothes are made of jersey fabric which has lots of stretch they are not designed to have a maternity fit.  Our garments are produced in standard UK dress sizes, however just as you are may needing a different size bra during breastfeeding you may need a different size top or dress.  We strongly recommend using our size guide before purchase ensure you pick the correct size, this can be found on each individual product description and has been created with the help of a team of breastfeeding mums.

We understand that judging your size post pregnancy can be tricky and we want you to love wearing our clothes so we offer our online customers a full refund for unwanted items within 14 working days of receipt. We will refund the full garment cost (not the postage). At present as we are a small business with limited stock we do not offer an exchange service.  However, if you wish to try a different style or size, please return your items and place a separate order online which will be processed within the usual time frame. Items should be unwashed and still in their original packaging. Please be careful when trying on clothes as perfume or deodorant can stain clothing and we will not be able to offer refunds on these items as they are not fit for resale. Clothes that smell of smoke cannot be accepted either. In the unlikely event that you receive a faulty item it can be returned and we will refund you the full price along with the return postage costs. Returns are processed within 7 working days once received (although usually it is much quicker than this!)

Refunds for item(s) from an order which had a discount or promotion applied will be calculated as follows: Where a discount has been applied to the entire Order, e.g. "£10 off" The discount will be applied evenly across the items ordered. If four items were ordered, then each item returned would include £2.50 of discount. If a % discount was applied, then the % would apply to each item.

If a Promotion was applied, i.e. "Buy One Get One Free", all items in the promotion must be returned, for a refund, otherwise the missing item will be charged at the current price.

A return address will be printed on your dispatch note.  Please return your item unworn and in the original packaging to this address. Don't forget to include the compliment slip included with your original order when returning an item so that we know who to issue the refund to.   We are a small family business, so if you would like to tell us why you are returning your order too that can be really helpful for us to improve our products in the future. 

Please be aware that we do not cover return postage costs. You are responsible for your items until they reach us, so you should get a certificate of posting from the Post Office or send as special delivery if you prefer.   We cannot accept liability for loss or damage during their return transit.

Refunds on a purchased item will only be paid once we receive and have accepted the condition of the product returned. Postage will only be refunded if we have made an error in shipping the wrong item or there is a fault.  

Refunds via PayPal are usually instant from when we process your refund. Refunds made via card can take 5-10 days to show up on your account depending on your card provider.
