 |  |  |  | | | What is a Nursing Bra?
Put simply a nursing bra typically will have snaps or clips that release the front panel of the bra exposing the mothers’ breast, making it easier for her to nurse her baby.
And Then There Were Boobs….
During pregnancy the size of a woman’s breasts may change many times…or not at all! Some woman may even go up 2 cup sizes when all is said and done! But do not be alarmed, we have something to fit any shape or size.
We are all built differently so finding a nursing bra can be a bit of a guessing game, especially when buying one before the baby has arrived, but luckily at Moms to be…and More you will find staff members trained to help make this experience as pleasurable for you as possible.
The ideal time for a new mom to come and see us for a nursing bra is during the last few weeks of her pregnancy. The later in the pregnancy she comes in the easier it will be for the sales staff to predict her breast size once her milk comes in - and does it ever come in! It is usually 3-4 days after a woman gives birth that this occurs, and it is usually when she will notice the biggest difference in her breasts as they become engorged with milk. Do not be surprised if during the fitting the sales associate helping you recommends a bra 1-2 cup sizes bigger then your current size. This is to leave room for the occurrence of engorgement as mentioned above.
For those of you who love under wire bras please note:
When purchasing a nursing bra with under wire it is recommended that you wait until after you have given birth and your milk has come in. The reason being; many breastfeeding consultants don't recommend women wear under wire nursing bras in the first place. Under wire nursing bras have been linked to plugged milk ducts and mastitis. If the under wires press on the milk ducts, they can interfere with her milk flow, clogging the ducts, which then become infected. That is why it is important to wait. Once your size has stabilized, that would be the appropriate time wear an under wire bra.
We carry many different styles of nursing bras from Bravado and Nummies. Please click on their names to find out more information about products from these two fantastic companies!
As if your boobs getting bigger wasn’t enough, believe it not when your milk comes in they may also leak when you don’t want them too. That’s where nursing pads come in. Nursing pads are placed inside the bra up against your skin and act as a barrier to absorb the leaking milk, keeping your skin dry. Nursing pads come in a disposable option (which are thinner) and washable option (bulkier but great for around the house).
