Buying
a nursing bra is an important purchase. We
believe
consumers
should
be educated, especially when buying something that affects your health.
Whomever
you
choose
as
your
source
for
nursing
bras,
there
are
a
few
facts
you
need. First, pointelle
bras
loose
their
shape...fast!
These
are
the
pretty
little
bras
that
the
fabric
appears
to
have
a
small
pinhole
pattern.
They
can't
support
their
own
shape,
let
alone
yours.
Next,
bras
with
polyester
cups
do
not
breathe.
You
don't
need
to
make
yourself
susceptible
to
sore
nipples
or
yeast
by
keeping
nipples
wet.
All
our
bras
have
cups
that
are
at
least
90%
cotton
and
any
that
are
blended
have
7-10%
lycra
or
spandex...not
polyester.
Make
sure
you
are
not
buying
bras
that
are
just
"cotton
lined"
because
air
must
be
able
to
circulate
through
both
layers. Under wires
can
plug
milk
ducts.
Plugged
ducts
can
lead
to
lower
milk
supply
or
breast
infection.
Your
breasts
are
fuller
before
feedings
and
emptier
afterwards
especially
in
the
first
two
months.
This
makes
it
hard
to
get
an
under wire
to
sit
behind
the
breast
tissue.
Your
breast
change
again
at
about
six
months
when
your
baby
begins
to
nurse
less.
That's
why
we
don't
carry
a
line
of
under wires.
We
care
about
your
breast
health.
Sleep
bras
are
important
for
light-weight
support
and
leakage
at
night.
Ours
don't
have
hooks
in
the
back
to
make
sleep
uncomfortable.
We
try
to
keep
our
prices
very
competitive
and
we
understand
that
everyone
has
a
budget.
That's
why
we
carry
bras
in
several
price
ranges,
but
larger
cup
sizes
need
more
support
and
those
bras
do
cost
more.
The
Medela
bra
in
the
extended
sizes
runs
about
$35-40,
but
we
don't
offer
it
because
the
94305
Fancee
Free
bra
costs
less
and
supports
more! Most
women
wear
the
wrong
size. Visit
our
fitting
room
to
measure
yourself.
A
good
fitting
bra
will
not
ride
up
your
back
or
push
your
breast
together.
Instead
it
should
lift
and
separate.
When
trying
on
a
bra,
make
sure
to
lift
your
breast
up
into
it
and
then
adjust
the
straps
accordingly. To view our selection of nursing bras hand picked
