Maternity bra advice

By Tracey-jane Hughes of bras4mums

Maternity bras are simply bras suitable for wearing during a woman's pregnancy. They are generally soft cup bras i.e. bras without underwires, but there are an increasing number of softly under-wired bras suitable for wearing during pregnancy.

The main thing to remember is that your pregnant body is changing all the time, and the maternity bra must be comfortable and supportive. Damage can be done to breast tissue during pregnancy, which can be prevented with a good fitting suitable bra.

In early pregnancy fit the bra on it's tightest setting so that you have space to allow for your rib cage to grow during pregnancy. In latter stages, remember that your ribcage will reduce again once baby is born.

Ensure the cup of the bra is supporting all your breast tissue. Your breasts will have grown in the first few weeks, so it's important to give them support. They are often tender and sore, so a comfortable bra that doesn't dig into your breast tissue is what you're looking for.

Remember that all bras fit differently - even from the same manufacturer, so only be trying them on will you know if the style and size is right for you.
