A favourite brand of many of our mums, the Bonds Wirefree Crop is comfortable for all sizes. It’s extra supportive, with the racerback style made in super-soft, cotton-rich and seam-free fabric. It comes with removable foam pads and has a one-handed nursing clip to make feeding a breeze. Coming in a variety of colours, the Bonds Maternity Wirefree Crop is a staple maternity bra for great reason.

The Bonds Maternity Contour Bra is a great option for pregnancy and breastfeeding, going up to an F cup with soft cotton fabric and straps that won’t dig in. Despite being underwire free, this bra offers excellent support with a double-layered back. It also has removable foam pads. The one-handed nursing clip with a drop cup sling is great for one-handed access for feeding. This bra is highly recommended by Tell Me Baby mums, who agree that this bra is both comfy and high quality.

Made from a blend of super-soft cotton, nylon and polyester blend, the QueenBee Nursing Sleep bra is loved by Tell Me Baby mums as a comfortable but supportive sleep bra. The bra includes a discreet inseam pocket to put breast pads and pulls aside to feed. The QueenBee Nursing Sleep bra comes in a range of different colours and patterns. We also love the black polka dot version.

Another great option from QueenBee is the Larissa Nursing Maternity Bra in navy checks. While still offering easy nursing thanks to one-handed nursing clips to drop down the cup and adjustable straps, our Tell Me Baby mums love this bra as one of the more stylish maternity bras on the market. It also has removable foam padding and discreet inseam pockets for breast pads.

Suitable for maternity and nursing, the Medela Maternity Nursing Bra is a crop top style, with no wires, seams or tags for maximum comfort. It’s ultra-stretchy and will adapt to your body and your changing needs. Our mums found it soft and comfortable, particularly when their breasts were tender, and importantly easy to feed and unclip with one hand.
