Bras bras bras

(damn internet! Ate my first post... Here's an abbreviated version)

Weight up - weight down - pregnancy - nursing

Its seems a woman needs a wardrobe of bras. If the options are not overwhelming then the cost is. And who has the time to figure out nursing bras!

First it's all about the fit. Check out this link for a laugh. But be careful who's behind you! ;)

Ok now you know how to be sized- wink, wink - questions like brands, number of bras, belly coverage are what you are wondering.

We all love our bellies but whether it is for warmth or belly privacy sometimes you gotta cover. Popular options are nursing tanks at target, glamourmom tops and tanks or belly bands. I chose the belly band for their multi tasking of holding up snug pants. That and you can ditch them if the belly needs to breath.

Bras. Bravado, a very popular choice. It "grows" with you and is super comfy. For a more sexy take try Nummies or HOTmilk. Oh and zulily.com has sweet deals on these bras. (mention me if you sign up!)

Try to get three bras if possible. It's the wear, wash and dry thinking.

And avoid underwire. It can cause mastitis. Though I have one and fingers crossed no issues so far.

One last thing buy a nursing bra before baby comes. Get a medela small, medium or large. You will live in it and it will grow legs. But as it walks away you will know it's time to search the internet for your new sexy nursing bra. This happens at about 2 weeks after birth when your milk is in and you realize you need to wear more than one outfit.

Happy bra shopping!
