Your body changes during and after pregnancy, including your breasts. Before and during your pregnancy, you'll need to find the right maternity lingerie. Finding the right nursing bra after your pregnancy can be quite a challenge. Below, we'll give you some tips on what to consider when looking for the perfect nursing bra.
What is a nursing bra actually?
A nursing bra is specifically designed and made for the period immediately after pregnancy. The goal of this bra is to make breastfeeding very easy. The bra is easy to slide and open, eliminating any obstacles to breastfeeding.
1. When do I need a nursing bra?
You won't need this bra during your pregnancy. After about four months, your breasts will barely grow anymore, but they will start to grow again towards the end of the pregnancy. This is due to milk production that starts at that time. Therefore, it's better to buy a bra only at the end of your pregnancy (about four weeks before your due date) or after your pregnancy.
2. Choose the right size
During pregnancy, your breasts will grow in size, which can make finding the right nursing bra difficult. You're used to a certain size, but suddenly your breasts change completely. It's crucial to measure your breasts yourself during and after pregnancy, or ask our specialists for help—you're always welcome.
3. Try on different bras
When trying on different types of bras, you might find you need a larger or smaller size. It's crucial for a nursing bra to fit your breasts completely. Move around freely and feel the comfort of the bra. Does it meet all your needs and fit well? Then it's the right bra for you!
