Once the baby arrived, which bra to breastfeed serenely? Some essential tips will help you find the right breastfeeding bra.
Nursing bra: when to choose the first?
You can choose your first breastfeeding bra at the 8th month of pregnancy. Do not hesitate to buy an extension in the back to be able to start wearing it at the end of pregnancy.
To breastfeed at the maternity ward, choose an Anti Sagging Bra made of cotton or stretch microfibre. Very comfortable, it will adapt to the variations of sizes following the climbs of milk and you will be able to even carry it at night (some names of brands: Anita, Bravado, Emma-Jane or Boob design ).
Nursing bra: the choice of size
One or two weeks after delivery, your breast will have reached its final size. You can then invest in a second breastfeeding bra. Make sure you have good support, essential when the breasts become heavy and sensitive.
Measure yourself if you buy your Cotton Nursing Bra on the internet and do not hesitate to ask the saleswomen in store. If you have a very large chest, make sure that the cups are soft and wide enough (to go around the breast without compressing it) and adjusted to your size to avoid mastitis (inflammation of the nipple).
Nursing bra: the opening system
There are two systems of openings: a clip or a magnet on the strap at the top of the breast, or an opening at the between-cap. In either case, the opening system should allow you to fully discover the nipple to promote skin-to-skin contact with the baby. For this reason, some brands developed cheap maternity bras with an opening system of variable size: a small opening to breastfeed outside with complete discretion and a larger opening for breastfeeding at home.
Nursing bra: style
Good news for moms looking for maternity lingerie online, specialized brands bring a new breath to nursing lingerie. No more uncomplimentary white cotton grandmother's underwear, lace, and bright colors!
