About us

Hello!

I’m Agnes and I created the Freemina clothing brand to support moms and babies in breastfeeding. I am a mom of two toddlers myself. The long and not necessarily easy adventure with breastfeeding my daughter resulted in the creation of the first clothing designs that were intended to bring relief and comfort, but also style and elegance. Let me tell you briefly my story.

Despite difficult beginnings with lactation after a cesarean section, I breastfed my daughter for more than 3 years. I ended up with an exceptional high need baby who hung constantly on my breasts – anyone who has experienced it knows what I’m talking about. From the moment the invasion began, I struggled with congestion in my breasts.

I had several nursing bras that I walked around in nonstop, but despite the right size, I didn’t feel comfortable in them at all. The breasts were compressed all the time, especially with an extra breast pad.

When my breasts were still hot and hard, and I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, an experienced colleague advised me to throw away my bra and give my breasts freedom. And indeed, giving up the bra ended my congestion problem forever.

But it also meant giving up breastfeeding clothes, in which a bra had to be worn underneath. However, because the sewn-in zippers irritated the breasts or the breasts flew left and right, it drove me crazy.

After many months of breastfeeding without a bra, in regular fitted cotton tops, I was beginning to miss the look of a supported bust that could be nicely exposed. However, I could not go back to hard, stiff bras that restrained my breathing and movement, not to mention inflammation.

I started thinking about the fact that if the bra should be a woman’s second skin, why is it a separate piece of clothing? What if we could have both – freedom, comfort, liberty and at the same time modeling, support, femininity? And then there’s the quick access to the breast!

This is how the idea was born to create nursing clothes that support the breasts without having to wear a bra, while provide immediate access to the breasts.

No additional fasteners, zippers, locks or snaps. Without strong, stiff rubbers cutting into the body. Practical, but also stylish. Made of high quality, soft cotton knit fabric manufactured in Poland. Sewn by a seamstress at a local workshop.
