Q. How will I know the best size since I'm bound to fluctuate during pregnancy and postpartum?
A. Fluctuation is one of the significant factors considered in the course of design. Most of the materials used are made from stretchy fabric that will accommodate growing bustlines with additional extenders enclosed that is rightly positioned to enhance band length. This means you can easily adjust the bra to a different range based on the size of your breast.
Q. How can I tell if a bra is too big or too small?
A. Comfort should be a topmost priority, but it's also never a bad idea if you measure out the bustline to ensure you're going for the right size.
if the strap on the bra feels too tight, the center of the bra is not laid flat between the breast or the breast spill out; these are telltale signs that the choice of bra is too small.
On the flip side, if the bra is not too big, the cups will cave in or have wrinkles, the breast might slip down, the band might ride to the upper part of the back, or the straps might slide off your shoulder.
Q. What makes for a comfortable fit besides size?
A. The type of fabric used can influence comfort; to this effect, it is important to consider the type of material and how attractive it looks. Going for a bra with underwire or wire, cups or seamless, lined or unlined are important in comfort.

Q. How many maternity bras will I need?
A. To maintain hygiene, it’s important to wash your maternity bra regularly. This means having more will help reduce the need for laundry. At least three will go a long way, one to spare, one to wash, and one to wear.
Q. When should I buy a maternity bra?
A. Once you notice visible changes in your body and it feels like you’re outgrowing your normal bra, then it’s probably the right time to make a switch. This can happen within the first trimester, although some prefer to wait until it's time to breastfeed before they make the transition.
Having a supportive and comfortable maternity bra will be of great value, especially as your bustline expands during pregnancy.
