Nursing Bras

Maternity Through Nursing Bras For Your Changing Breasts

A good nursing bra is designed to give you convenience, support and comfort throughout the breast feeding process. On a medical level, nursing bras help prevent breastfeeding problems such as plugged ducts and breast infections, as well as unnecessary swelling of the breasts (your breasts will swell naturally due to the pregnancy and breastfeeding process, but additional, unnatural swelling can be caused by prolonged discomfort or stress to the breast tissue, often caused by an inappropriate or poorly fitting bra). On a matter of convenience and practicality, a nursing bra can accommodate for the changes your breasts undergo after pregnancy, both by offering adjustable cup sizes and better support for when your breasts become heavier.

Most nursing bras offer front snap cups that open for easy breast feeding that can be done one handed. The Goddess Nursing Bra 1001 is a great example of this - the cups are easy to open to expose the breasts for breastfeeding. Stretch cups, cotton, microfiber and soft cup options are always offered to you so you are as comfortable as possible with your bra during the breastfeeding months.
