Bras
It is also important that to wear a well fitting bra. Whether you’re buying a nursing bra or a normal bra, it’s a good idea to be measured so that you know your bra fits properly. Don’t buy your nursing bra too early in your pregnancy – wait until the last month to buy your first one, then get re-measured 6 weeks after your baby arrives. The important thing to know is that your bra, nursing or not, should never be so tight that it presses or squeezes your breasts as this can blocked ducts.
You can book appointments to be measured in a shop or you can measure yourself using this online calculator: https://booborbust.com/
