During pregnancy, you’ll need more than a curated selection of maternity clothes. Maternity pajamas, maternity underwear, and maternity bras are crucial for the comfort of expectant moms. Once the baby arrives, you’ll also want post-partum essentials like nursing bras to make feeding more accessible and comfortable for you and your baby. Macy’s carries nursing bras and maternity bras, so it’s easy to find a style that fits and works for you. Here’s what you need to know.
What Bras to Expect When You’re Expecting
As women’s bodies change during pregnancy, regular bras & bralettes can become uncomfortable. As soon as you’re ready, swap your usual bra for a pregnancy bra. These styles have special features to accommodate and support breast growth during pregnancy, such as extra hooks on the gusset, wider straps, and stretchy cups.
In the early stages, it's best to buy any maternity lingerie in your pre-pregnancy size. You can go up to a larger size later on if needed. If you wear plus size clothing, maternity plus size bras will fit you best. Do you usually wear underwire bras? Macy’s offers underwire maternity bras that provide more structured bust support. However, these types of bras are best worn in the earlier stages of pregnancy and may not feel comfortable or fit properly as delivery time nears.
Effortless Nursing and Pumping
A good nursing bra is essential if you’ll be nursing after delivery. Many nursing bras incorporate flap-style cups that provide unhindered access; some have clasps or hooks to keep the flap in position while it's up or down. A pull-down breastfeeding bra is another type of nursing-friendly design that does not have flaps. It offers less structure but has a stretchy and comfortable feel that some nursing moms prefer.
Whichever type you choose, look for a supportive nursing bra that you can open effortlessly and one-handed for feedings. Do you plan to pump as well as nurse? Pumping and nursing bras allow you to nurse as needed while accommodating pump flanges. Try out several different options and see what works best for you.
Prepare for a changing body and an exciting new arrival with maternity underwear and nursing bras from Macy’s.
