FAQs
Different bras for different stages?
Yes. 1st trimester: regular comfort bras. Late pregnancy: maternity. Nursing: drop-cup access. Sleep: low-impact wireless. 4-6 different bras through pregnancy + nursing.
Underwire while nursing?
Many doctors discourage during early nursing — can compress milk ducts. Wireless or soft-flex wire safer. Late nursing + when supply established: regular underwire OK.
