When breast-feeding mothers choose bras, it is best to choose pure cotton bras, which is not only more conducive to good health, but also more comfortable to wear. For example, Qi Jing nursing bra uses combed cotton, the top fabric in pure cotton materials, which improves the comfort of the bra and gives mothers gentle care.
2. It doesn't matter if the size is bigger than smaller.
It is suggested that mothers choose loose bras, and firmly grasp the principle of "rather big than small, rather loose than tight" in the choice of numbers. It's better to be one size bigger than the chest. Because wearing a bra that is too small and too tight for a long time will not only affect milk secretion, but also affect local blood and lymphatic circulation and induce various breast diseases.
Step 3 choose a full cup
4/4 full-cup bra and deep-angled cup can bring all-round gentle protection to breasts.
Step 4 choose a wide shoulder strap
Breast will become bigger and heavier during lactation, so it's best to choose a bra with a slightly wider shoulder strap to strengthen the bearing and provide sufficient support for the breast to avoid sagging.
5, choose soft steel ring
It is best to choose a bra with a steel bracket design and a soft steel ring. This bra will deliberately increase the diameter of the steel ring, so that the steel ring can completely cover the breast, avoid the steel ring pressing the breast to affect the milk secretion, and at the same time play a role in supporting the breast.
6. Pay attention to the design of feeding port
The design of the feeding mouth of the cup not only increases the added value of the bra, but also prolongs the wearing period from pregnancy to lactation. If the baby is hungry, it is very convenient to hold the baby with one hand and unbutton the button with the other when you are ready to feed. According to different designs, it can be divided into the following types:
(1) Fully open the breast-feeding port. It is characterized in that the cup is only hooked on the shoulder strap through the hook ring, and when breastfeeding, the cup can be completely opened downwards to expose the whole breast.
(2) Open breastfeeding opening. Its characteristic is that when the cup is lifted, only the nipple and areola and their surroundings are exposed, which has a high shielding effect.
(3) Front button bra or casual bra. It is characterized in that the buckle of the bra is hooked on the front, which is convenient to untie the bra with one hand. This bra can be worn at home or when sleeping. Its support is usually worse than the bra above, but it is more comfortable. When worn at home, you can relax and rest your breasts.
7. Bras should be convenient for placing chest pads.
From the late pregnancy to postpartum breastfeeding, breasts may overflow, and many pregnant women will use breast pads to absorb the spilled milk. In order to facilitate the placement and fixation of breast pads, many special nursing bra will set pockets and auxiliary belts in the cups.
