Why Breastfeeding Moms Need a Nursing Bra?
Normal bra is not recommended for nursing mummies as it is not designed to provide adequate support or may even put pressure on the breasts. This may cause blocked ducts, infection and affect the flow of breast milk.
A nursing bra is like a normal bra but with additional clasps or hooks, buttons or snaps in order to open the flaps of the cup easily during pumping / lactating / breast feeding your babies without having to remove the entire bra.
Nursing bra is specially designed to support increasing breast size during breastfeeding journey. Most nursing bras are designed to allow insertion of bra pads to adsorb leaking milk at night or between feedings. Consider wearing a sleep bra with breast pads as breasts may feel heavy or leak milk at night.
Tips for Choosing a Nursing Bra
- Material: Choose soft & stretchy materials
- Open & Close: Consider how it open & close when nursing. Some hook, snap or simply push the cup to the side.
- The Fit: Wider straps to reduce shoulder pain
- Cup Style: Avoid underwire bra for better circulation & promote healthy milk production.
- Note: Too Tight and/or underwire bra could cause plugged milk ducts, mastitis or a decrease in your milk supply.
