A: During the second trimester you may notice that your breasts are growing and you may get uncomfortable in your regular bra. We recommend as soon as you are experiencing this you move to a wireless and seamless maternity & nursing bra. All our bras feature Adaptive Stretch™ material that grows with your changing body from pregnancy through nursing.

A: You can wear a nursing bra to bed as long as it is comfortable for you. During pregnancy and nursing the breast grows and you might want to have a little support even when sleeping. Our Sleep Bra is designed with minimal seams and no hooks, so nothing disturbs your skin while you sleep. It has a crossover function to allow for easy access for nursing during the night. Another benefit to wearing a bra for sleep is that you can also wear breast pads to avoid any leakage marks on your clothes.
A: As a breastfeeding mum you do not have to wear a bra to sleep, but of course there are several reasons you may want to do so:
- your breasts are bigger than you are used to before pregnancy and you might feel you need some light support during the night
- if your breasts leak you can easily place breast pads in your bra to avoid leakage on your clothes. We recommend using our Sleep Bra as this is the most comfortable piece in our collection for laying down.
A: We recommend you start wearing a maternity and nursing bra in the second trimester or when your regular bra gets uncomfortable. Our maternity & nursing bras are made of Adaptive Stretch™ material that grows with your changing body from pregnancy through nursing.
