Maternity bras?

Im 13 weeks and my boobs are huge and busting out of my regular bras. Do I buy maternity bras or just a bigger size in a regular bras? What is a maternity bra anyway? Does it make sense to buy nursing bras since I'll need them anyway and my boobs are still going to be huge then. Last time I did this was 8 years ago and I can't remember what I did at all. Help!!

Maternity bras?

I'd go with a nursing bra if you plan to do it.

Re: Maternity bras?

I just bought regular bras. My boobs were a different, bigger size throughout pregnancy and then for a year or two after (I did BF and also had trouble losing those last 10 pounds). Even when I was nursing, I'd wear regular bras to work. Nursing bras are generally not as supportive (they're more about comfort and flexibility) and that doesn't work for me when I'm pg/bf'ing and a 38E! Chat Icon

Re: Maternity bras?

Either. For dd1, I just went up a size In Regular bras. This time around, I'm even huger, and they don't carry my size in most cheaper places (ie kohls, outlets), plus the big cup sizes tend to have high sides, which rub against my armpit. So this time, I got cheap ones in motherhood maternity, and they are working out fine.

I bought a bunch of regular ones. My boobs are HUGE (they're big to begin with) and kill me. But, I don't plan on breastfeeding. If I did I'd probably get the nursing ones.
