If you’ve managed to stay active throughout your pregnancy, good for you! When you’re ready to transition to a nursing bra, the Bamboobies Yoga Nursing Bra is a smart option that will grow with you while also providing the support you need to stay comfortable during low-impact exercise. It’s worth noting though that both our testers felt the sizing was a little on the small side so we'd advise going for a size bigger if you aren’t sure.

Plus, with many maternity brands designed with breastfeeding in mind (not to mention they're just so darn comfortable) you may find that six months stretching into years. How we chose the best maternity clothes Recommendations from real Mumsnet users Both La Leche League (LLL) and March of Dimes recommend against underwire bras while breastfeeding because research suggests it can put too much pressure on the breasts and lead to problems like mastitis or plugged ducts — especially in the early days and weeks when your milk is coming in.

While we were initially cynical about its ability to be all things to all women, the bra pulls this off very well. Its soft stretchiness is both soothing for tingly pregnant boobs and supportive for milk-heavy breasts, especially in the days after birth. Perfect for wearing when you're snuggling into your best pregnancy pillow at the end of a long day. The fabric is soft and the bra seam-free so there’s nothing to rub or irritate – the flexible underwire successfully manages to hold everything where it should be without digging into the skin.
