Maternity and Nursing bras
Share
Maternity bras and nursing bras are specialty bras that offer unique support for pregnant people and new mothers. They are typically more comfortable than regular bras, which is especially important during your pregnancy because you'll likely be experiencing considerable breast growth and tenderness. Maternity and nursing bras have a wider band of fabric around the torso to accommodate the growing belly, extra straps to help keep the bra in place as it expands during pregnancy and after birth (when breastfeeding), plus other features such as pockets or hooks where you can store breast pads or pump accessories while pumping at work or play.

It should provide support for not only the bust but also the back and shoulders. The straps of a nursing bra are designed to help pull your breast into their optimal position for feeding. This can help make breastfeeding more comfortable for both mother and baby!

Some women find that a standard nursing bra is sufficient for breastfeeding throughout most of their pregnancy. The fabric and construction of a standard nursing bra make it possible to hold milk-producing tissue in place, and the cups are large enough to accommodate fluctuations in breast size. However, not all women have this experience with a standard nursing bra: some find that their breasts are too large or heavy for them to feel supported by them when they wear them during pregnancy and lactation.
Some women might feel like they could use more support from their bras while they're pregnant or breastfeeding which can be achieved through a breastfeeding sports bra as these are designed to provide more support than a traditional nursing bra.

This type of bra offers greater flexibility and comfort than wired nursing bras, which have underwires that can dig into your skin and if ill-fitting breast tissue which can cause block ducts and mastitis.

You'll need a few different types of bras throughout your pregnancy. For the first trimester, you might only need to buy one or two maternity bras, but during the second and third trimesters you may want to buy up to four or five nursing bras.
