A maternity bra has to have easy access clips for drop down cups for easy access when nursing. If you intend sleeping in the maternity bra, then perhaps consider how comfortable it will be (e.g., back fastener clips). Some bras are made with no back fastener clips so these pesky fasteners don't dig into your back when sleeping. A good maternity bra that doesn't have any back fasteners is the Original Nursing Bra by Bravado. The style is kinda like a crop top/Sports Bra and its very comfortable to wear. Its available in a great choice of colors and prints: Leopard Print, Polka Dot Print, Blush, White, Black and Sky Blue.

Most women these days accept that if you look good, then you feel good! Extend that philosophy to sexy underwear and you have a market for hot sexy maternity wear. One such manufacturer from New Zealand has capitalized on this very market and has recently launched HOTmilk - offering a fantastic range of sexy, racey maternity bras, maternity lingerie and maternity nightwear that is guaranteed to make you feel like one hot mama!

During pregnancy, it becomes inevitable to have bigger and heavier breasts. This usually happens at around eight to ten weeks and it also becomes the time to replace ordinary bras. A simple rule in determining the best time to purchase a maternity bra is when wearing a normal bra begins to feel uncomfortable. In some cases, they are not only heavy but sore as well. To prevent them from being stretched, as these only have ligaments and no muscles, an expecting mom should make sure that the bra worn gives the proper support.

A maternity bra is often interchanged with a nursing bra. However, there is a slight difference between these two as maternity bras are specially created to accommodate the expansion of the breasts as these grows in size throughout the pregnancy.

Whatever nursing bra you buy, it is important that the bra fits correctly and is easy to use. A bra that doesn't fit correctly can block your milk ducts and cause milk production to decrease. Also, plugged milk ducts can become infected, leading to mastitis, so be sure that the nursing bra is right for you; all woman are different and therefore, what might be a good nursing bra for some, may not be the right nursing bra for others.

If possible, it is best to avoid under wire nursing bras, especially in the early postpartum weeks. However some women, especially those with plus size cups, prefer under wire nursing bras as they feel they get more support and avoid backache. If you do choose under wire, then it is vital that it fits correctly. The Medela Extended Size Classic bra comes in an under wire design and is a very good bra for the fuller figured woman.
