Ultimate guide to maternity bras

Maternity bras sound complicated but soon you will be an expert. There are many changes to your body throughout pregnancy and breastfeeding, and one of them is coming to terms with changing the style of bra you are used to wearing.

Over the course of the motherhood journey, your breasts will undergo a multitude of changes and require additional support. Specialists in maternity bras, Bendon Lingerie, design with maximum comfort, support and ease of use; specifically meeting the needs of pregnant women. They are there to celebrate and support you by providing you with the maternity bra styles and information you’ll need.

 Why is it important to purchase a maternity bra?

Pregnant women very quickly outgrow their regular bras, and while it may be tempting to make do with the bras you have, your breasts will require some comfier support. Both during and after pregnancy, the breasts undergo numerous changes such as enlarging, becoming heavier, denser, and more sensitive. Even though not all women gain weight, the diaphragm and rib cage will expand to allow room for the baby to grow. Therefore, while every woman is different, it’s not uncommon to go up two to four band sizes (the measurement around your body under your breasts) and two to four cup sizes during pregnancy. Therefore, it’s paramount that you are wearing a professionally fitted bra specifically designed to allow for growth and comfort.

While it is personal choice, we highly recommend wearing a soft cup wire-free bra during and after pregnancy. As your breasts are constantly changing during pregnancy and breastfeeding, you may find that having no underwire is a lot more comfortable. Wires can push into where the milk ducts are forming, which can cause discomfort and may cause damage/block milk flow leading to mastitis which is very painful and prevents feeding.

When do I know it’s time for a maternity bra?

Every woman is different, every pregnancy is different, and your breasts will change in a way that’s unique to you. Depending on how you grow, you may need to go bra shopping several times throughout pregnancy.

We recommend you have your first maternity fitting when your bras start to feel uncomfortable and your breasts start to change – typically this tends to be just after your first trimester (first three months).

During the second and third trimesters (six-nine months), we recommend coming in store for a follow-up fitting, as you will most likely need to go up a size to keep up with your expanding bust and allow for baby growth in your diaphragm.

Typically, women will grow at least another cup size a few days after birth when your milk comes in.

 What are the features of a maternity bra?

Bendon Lingerie fit experts are professionally trained at providing you with a well-fitted bra that allows for growth, comfort and suits your personal preferences that you can wear throughout the day, and night.

Customers said:

“Of the various brands of nursing bras that I’ve purchased, this is my favourite – in fact I just purchased another 3! The material is so soft & comfortable, the cups have no seams so there’s no rubbing or need for nursing pads. It’s also kept its’ shape well & hasn’t stretched so that it still fits well even after 18 months of use. Highly recommended! ” – Karen. G

“Super comfortable nursing bra that holds everything in. Had the same bra 5 years ago and still the most comfortable one I’ve tried and loving the expander on the new design.” – Michelle. H

“As a larger busted woman, it’s very difficult to find comfortable supportive maternity wire free bras. This bra ticks every box! So soft to touch, supportive and I’m finally not in pain! Will be buying another!” – Kate. F

“After wearing the wrong size bra for years including 32 weeks of pregnancy I finally got fitted and found a bra that didn’t leave red marks all over! The clips are super easy to use for when baby needs a feed quickly and I don’t rush home to take my bra off at the end of the day.” – Shai-Nika. C

No Food Shaming.

If you grew up in the ‘80s, ‘90s, or early 2000’s, chances are you were taught to see food through a moral lens: veggies were “good,” chocolate was “bad,” and fat was something to fear. That messaging stuck.

So now, when you reach for a bag of chips after a long day or say yes to dessert, a quiet voice in the back of your mind is likely to whisper: “You shouldn’t.” You feel like you’ve done something wrong – simply for eating something you enjoy. And here’s the thing: our kids are watching. They’re listening. The way we talk about food becomes the way they relate to it.

If you want to raise confident eaters, it’s time to let go of the “good” vs “bad” food narrative and allow your kids to enjoy food without guilt or shame. Let’s be real; some foods are more nutrient-dense than others. But that doesn’t mean that we need to rank them on a scale. Instead of calling food “good” or “bad”, try talking about how it fits into the bigger picture of what our bodies need. 

Read on for a few ways to reframe the conversation:

The Myth of the Perfect Parent
Somewhere along the way, we’ve been sold this idea that good parenting means never messing up. That if we just try hard enough, read the right books, and avoid raising our voices, we’ll somehow unlock the secret to raising perfectly adjusted children. But here’s the truth which I finally accepted: there is no perfect way to parent. There are only good days and bad days. There are moments when you handle things beautifully and moments when you yell something ridiculous like, “WHY ARE YOUR SHOES IN THE FRIDGE?” There are times when you feel like a hero and times when you feel like a complete failure. And that’s okay.
