Nursing Bras

By Elizabeth Morgan

Maternity is nature's gift to women. The experience of nursing your baby can
be increased if you ensure your own comfort level. Your breasts start
changing shape from the fourth month of pregnancy. As a result, most women
find their previous bra too small.

Purchase a nursing bras close to your due date or shortly after your baby
arrives, because your breasts will grow larger toward the end of your
pregnancy and when milk comes in.

You can purchase nursing bras in the maternity section of any department
store. When purchasing a nursing bra, keep in mind that it is best to shop
for one that has wide, comfortable shoulder straps to give adequate support
to the breasts. Consider buying a bra that has flaps and can be opened and
refastened easily. Since milk leakage is inevitable, it also makes sense to
buy nursing pads to protect both your bra and clothes.

Make sure you get the right size. Though good looks are an added bonus, your
primary consideration should be access and comfort. Even though you may find
bras with underwires tempting, they can constrict the ducts and obstruct the
flow of milk. This, in turn, can cause infections.

It is always better to buy 100% cotton bras, as cotton is a breathable
fabric. Synthetic fabrics trap moisture and encourage bacterial growth and
soreness.

Along with quality, pay attention to the quantity also. You should buy more
than one nursing bras to avoid washing the same pieces again and again. As
the breast size keeps changing, you should replace your nursing bras
regularly to be sure you're getting the support you need while breast-
feeding.
