Maternity Bras
Maternity bras offer flexible and adjustable room for your breasts and are designed so as to accommodate your breasts that constantly change and increase their size during pregnancy.
These bras feature inside under-bust bands and provide full coverage to the breasts along with support.
The fabric enables breath-ability to prevent breast tissue irritation and relieves strain on the breasts.
Woman's breasts become more sensitive, heavier and larger throughout pregnancy. Mammary gland growth and increased fluid increases the size of the breasts constantly.
Without proper bra support, your breasts could become deformed, and for women with already large breasts, there can be significant tension in the neck and shoulders.

Most of these bras feature three or more back closures for better fit and support.

Remember
You can start wearing a maternity bra as soon as your breasts start growing which is quite rapid from 4th month onwards.
Wear the right size as a tighter bra may compress your breasts and invite breast infection or mastitis.
Do not wear a size bigger than your size. It's a common misconception that a loose fitting bra may provide room for your breasts to grow.
Choose a maternity bra that fits you well on the tightest, usually the first, hook so that you can switch to loosest hooks when you grow bigger.
Soft cups are more popular ones when it comes to maternity bras. However, under wires may not cause any great problem. But you can not wear them for longer hours.
