How to choose a nursing bra

Breastfeeding is a very important stage in the life of mother and baby. Modern industry offers many products that make breastfeeding as comfortable as possible, and among them an important place is occupied by special bras for feeding.

Why you need a nursing bra
Due to the wide straps and special cut, the nursing bra supports the breast well, thereby keeping its shape and reducing the likelihood of stretch marks on the skin. And if the breast is very large, then the properly selected bra helps reduce the strain on the spine and prevent pain and fatigue in the back. In addition, its thoughtful design makes it easy to feed the baby even in the most crowded place, especially in combination with special clothing for feeding. Do not completely unbutton the bra or try to move it from the chest, just unfasten the special fastener and bend the cup. Often such bras are equipped with special pockets for pads that absorb leaking milk and allow to avoid unaesthetic stains on clothes, which is especially important in the first months of feeding.

How to choose a nursing bra
To date, buy a bra for feeding is not difficult. Similar products are sold in specialized children's shops and stores for pregnant women, in some pharmacies and even in markets. You can order a bra on the Internet, but in this case the probability of not getting into your size is significantly increased, so it's best to buy such things with fitting (and only in proven retail outlets that sell exceptionally high-quality products).

How to choose a nursing bra? The most important thing to remember is that it should fit well and support the breast, but do not squeeze or squeeze it, so as not to cause stagnation of milk. It is best to choose a nursing bra made of an elastic fabric that can stretch together with the breast. Such models can be purchased already in the third trimester of pregnancy and worn before and after childbirth. But bras with non-stretchable calyx should be selected after the birth of the baby, when the breast appears in the breast, because otherwise it is easy to guess with the size.

When buying, it is important to carefully consider the product - a quality nursing bra should be made of a pleasant fabric (preferably natural), no rough seams, fastenings should be easily unfastened with one hand (which is very important when a hungry child screams in his arms). It is desirable to give preference to the products of proven manufacturers, whose quality of products does not cause any doubts. A worthy example is a breast-feeding bra, which meets all of the above requirements and is at a reasonable price.

Recommendations for using a nursing bra
In order to prevent sagging of the breast, it is recommended to wear a nursing bra almost around the clock (especially in the first months of the baby's life). Even if the breasts are small by nature, elastic and not too large in size with the beginning of feeding, it is advisable to wear such a bra at least in the daytime. The possessor of a large breast is better not to remove it at night (it is very important that the model for sleep is made of the softest fabric and did not have pits).

Sometimes young mothers do not want to wear a brassiere for feeding, arguing that it does not look very attractive. However, among today's variety of "feeding" bras, a fan of restrained monochrome models, a fan of bright floral and geometric colors, and a connoisseur of lace and frills can choose a suitable variant for herself. To wash bras for feeding is often enough, so a young mother will need at least two copies (one in sock, the other in washing), but many prefer not to be limited to this amount.
