Our nursing bras are specifically designed to provide support and comfort during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. It is essential to know your correct bra size. I recommend getting professionally fitted at our store or using a tape measure to get accurate measurements of your underbust and bust. This will ensure that the bra fits snugly without being too tight, allowing for changes in breast size during pregnancy and postpartum.

Next, consider the style and features that best suit your needs. Our nursing bras come in various styles such as full-coverage, wireless, or sports bras. Depending on your daily activities and personal preference, you may want to choose a bra with adjustable straps, extra padding for support, or easy-to-open nursing clips for convenience.

When selecting a fabric for your nursing bra, it’s important to choose breathable materials like cotton or bamboo to prevent irritation or discomfort during this sensitive time. Look for bras with wide bands under the bust for added support without digging into the skin.

It’s also crucial to remember that our bodies change throughout pregnancy and after giving birth; therefore, choosing a bra with multiple hook-and-eye closures allows room for adjustment as your body transitions through different stages.

A common misconception when buying a nursing bra is that it should be purchased in a larger size than normal because of breast growth during pregnancy. However, this can lead to improper support and discomfort. The truth is that investing in a properly fitting nursing bra from early on will provide the necessary support throughout all stages of pregnancy and breastfeeding.

A less-known fact about purchasing a nursing bra during pregnancy is that many women experience leakage of milk before they even give birth due to hormonal changes. Knowing this can help you choose bras with absorbent lining or removable pads to manage any unexpected leakage discreetly.

The next step would be to browse our collection online or visit our store so we can assist you in finding the perfect fit according to these guidelines. Remember: A well-fitting nursing bra is an investment in comfort and convenience during this special time in your life!
