3) Nursing Bras
We suggest starting out with at least 3-4 maternity/nursing bras and matching panties to always have a clean and stylish reserve of lingerie available. Invest into at least 2 supportive nursing bras – the kind with drop down cups to give access for breastfeeding. You will also need at least 1 sleep bra. These nursing bras are usually lightly constructed to give you more comfort and freedom of movement during the night. This bra is especially useful during early breastfeeding time, when you may want to wear nursing pads. We also recommend at least one nursing sports bra. You may have noticed that your breasts became larger during pregnancy. They will likely remain this size and it is important to give them the necessary support for the times you start working out at the gym, and even for taking walks.
