Pregnant or BFing/pumping moms who work in a business/business-casual environment...
What do you wear to work? Both during late pregnancy as well as after mat leave when pumping?
Thanks!

Button down shirts or anything easy to get on or take off. I work in such a casual environment that I got away with wearing sweats if I needed to. Lol

I didn't change my style of clothing when I returned back to work...just a nursing bra under my regular work clothes. I figure the door is closed when I pump, so I don't need a special wardrobe.

Same here.
If I wore a dress, I made sure I had a cardigan that I could put on to cover up a bit.

I really liked the nursing tank tops from Target. I wore them under cardigans or dresses a lot. I tried to layer especially when I was out of the office and needed to pump in my car.

Mostly my normal stuff, but gravitate towards things with easier access for pumping. Skinny pants with flowy tops that can be easily lifted or button down that can be easily opened. Dresses that are button down. Tops tucked into skirts where the top can be pulled up.
Late stage pregnancy was winter for me, so I wore leggings/stretch skinny pants with tanks and long cardigans, or flowy dresses that turned into tunics in pregnancy. If I were pregnant in this season it would be all about dresses, all the time!

Pumping didn't affect my clothing choices.. since I took off my shirt & bra completely to pump anyway, I just wore my regular bra & clothes.

I keep a shawl at work in case I wear a dress, but more often I wear a button down blouse or cardigan with a tank top underneath. My tanks are all pretty stretchy and loose so I can just pull one side down. I also nurse DD once at my parents house when I drop her off while I'm waiting for the express bus into the city. So I try and make it so I don't have to get too undressed while I sit there and chat with my dad or my brother. 
ETA: Late in my pregnancy was pretty much strictly leggings and long tops- I had a few flowy tops, but mostly long sleeve pregnancy tops. I gave birth at the end of April but it was still chilly late in my pregnancy while I worked.

I wore a lot of button down shirts, v-neck sweaters that were easy to pull down and wrap dresses that were also easy to pull down. I also got some nursing tanks and would wear those under sweaters so I just had to pull up the sweater, but my stomach was still covered because I didn't like to feel that exposed.
