Features to Look for When Choosing the Right Nursing Bra

For mothers who are nursing their babies, it is wise to use nursing bras to support your increased breast size. It is what I am using when I was still pregnant (3rd trimester) and when I started to breastfeed my baby.

It is now easier to breastfeed our babies with the new type of nursing bras that has clips or flaps that can be opened from the cup. It's an advantage for us moms, especially those who frequently go out with their babies.

Choosing the right nursing bra to use isn't that hard to find. Here are the main features to look for when choosing the right Nursing Bra:

Breathable and Comfortable

It's best to choose a cotton nursing bra because it's breathable and more comfortable to wear the entire day. The best nursing bras are the ones that make you feel happy and comfortable no matter what your lifestyle is. 

Watch out for bras that are non-breathable, it can trap moisture and encourage bacterial growth and soreness.

Breast Support

Find a nursing bra that can support your breast, either Flexi-wire or Wireless nursing bras are okay as long as you feel comfortable wearing them and can support your breasts.

Adjustability

Look for a nursing bra with adjustable straps and hooks because your breast size might change over time and sometimes it can change in a day, depending on how full you are with milk. ;)
Easy Nursing Access

Choose a nursing bra that works best for you. It's much better to try it first if you will be comfortable wearing the nursing bras with clips that you can easily snap on and off or the ones with stretchy fabrics that you can pull easily when it's time to breastfeed. Either of the two is great, as long as it offers easy nursing access for your babies anytime and anywhere.

If you choose the nursing bras with clips, try to check first if they can be easily opened or not, the easier it is to open the better. :)

For Moms who are pumping milk for their babies, this Hands-Free Nursing Pump Bra with Bra Extender would be the best type for you.

Maternity Photography

I rarely had photos of me showing my tummy when I was pregnant and this shot is what I love most. I'm on my 7th month here by the way when I attended a Christmas party last December 2011... :)

I was browsing some photos on Pinterest and saw some really cool photos on Maternity Photography. I wish I have thought about this and have a photo-shoot of me and my tummy while I was still pregnant. Regrets... well, at least I got a few shots to keep and reminisce... :)

Anyways, here's are some of the maternity photography shots that I liked most...



...and to my surprise, I saw this hilarious photo of a couple wearing nothing... LOL!
