Recommendations

The best nursing bras are comfortable and offer good support and do not interfere with milk flow. For optimum support, the band and the straps should be made of nonstretchy fabric. But cups should have some "give” or be adjustable to accommodate your changing breast size at different phases of nursing.

Look for bras that are 100 percent cotton or a blend of cotton and other stretchy synthetic. Since the right bra size is important and can help reduce the risk of breast-feeding complications, such as clogged milk ducts, shop at a maternity store or boutique that has an experienced bra fitter.

Talk to the experts

Every woman's body changes at different rates during pregnancy and after childbirth, and experts don't all agree on when you should get fitted for nursing bras.

In general, Mums to be will find that their breasts get bigger when they become pregnant, then their rib cage size may increase . Once the baby is born, their breasts will increase again when they are ready to breastfeed, and then possibly decrease after a few weeks.

Get at least one good adjustable supportive nursing bra late in pregnancy but before giving birth. At Xpanda Bra we recommend not buying more than one nursing bra before your baby arrives because your size could be bigger once your baby is born and your milk comes in, and as Xpanda bra has 2 cup sizes this will accommodate yuo until you can buy another when 1 is in the wash.

Nursing bras are important, especially to make breastfeeding easier and protect your nipples if they become sore during feedings as they adjust to the process, Once you get the hang of breastfeeding and you're more comfortable, your size will be easier to determine. That's a great time to get professionally fitted for a nursing bra.
