    Best bras during pregnancy

    1. Momcozy Seamless Nursing Bra (overall top pick)
    2. Kindred Bravely Sublime lace seamless nursing bra
    3. Kindred Bravely French Terry Nursing sleep bra (best for large busts)
    4. Warner's Seamless stretch bra
    5. Calvin Klein Invisibles Wirefree Bralette

    1. Momcozy seamless nursing bra

    This seamless nursing bra is our top pick for a few reasons. It's super comfortable, wireless, and is great for pregnancy and nursing.

    2.Kindred Bravely Sublime lace back seamless nursing bra

    a woman wearing a racerback nursing bra.

    Another favorite of ours is this racerback nursing bra from Kindred Bravely. It's comfortable, allows for easy nursing, and is wireless!

    3. Kindred Bravely French Terry Nursing Sleep Bra

    a woman wearing a nursing sleep bra from Kindred Bravely.

    This Kindred Bravely bra is another popular choice for pregnant moms because it's comfortable and you could easily sleep while wearing these when you are nursing later on.

    4. Warner's Seamless stretch bra

    a woman wearing a wireless seamless bra.

    Another great choice is this bra from Warner's. It helps smooth your underarms, is seamless, and wireless for plenty of comfort while still giving you support!

    5. Calvin Klein Invisibles Wirefree bralette

    a woman wearing a Calvin Klein invisibles wire free bralette.

    Calvin Klein also makes a great bra for pregnant women! This wire free bralette is buttery soft, supports while still feeling comfortable, and is practically invisible under your clothes.

    The only drawback is that it's not nursing friendly, but definitely still a very great bra!

    Why do you need a maternity bra?

    Maternity bras offer support for your growing breasts. Traditional bras can put too much compression which can affect your milk supply later on.

    Some are also designed with clips to make breastfeeding easy.

    How to pick the right one

    four colorful bras with text overlay that reads best maternity bras plus three tips for picking the right one.
    • Wireless- these are a lot more comfortable and won't dig in. Just make sure to find one that still offers some support.
    • Nursing friendly- if you are planning on breastfeeding, pick a bra during your pregnancy that is nursing friendly so you can continue to use it later on.
    • Comfortable to sleep in-some moms leak during pregnancy, and if you plan to breastfeed later on, you will leak while you sleep. Pick a bra that you can comfortable sleep in that will fit breast pads.

    Maternity bra FAQ

    Why are maternity bras important?

    They offer support for your growing breasts. Traditional bras can put on too much compression which can affect your milk supply later on.

    When to buy maternity bras?

    I would suggest in your second trimester. As your breasts start in your pregnancy, you are going to want support but without the underwire.

    How many nursing bras do I need for a year?

    At least 3-5 depending on how often you do laundry.
