Now that you know the breast, I mean best, nursing bras in Australia, you might still have some questions like:

WHAT BRA SHOULD I WEAR WHEN BREASTFEEDING?

A comfortable, wire-free, seam-free nursing bra that provides support is the best option.

These bras feature full drop cups, allowing you to breastfeed your baby easily and discreetly.

DO YOU REALLY NEED A NURSING BRA WHILE BREASTFEEDING?

If you usually go braless, you could choose not to wear a nursing bra while breastfeeding. However, you risk leaking on your clothes if you don’t. You might also find that your breasts feel more supported when they’re full of milk in a comfortable nursing bra.

HOW MANY NURSING BRAS DO I REALLY NEED?

Three is a good number to start with. That means you have one in the closet, one in the wash and one that you are wearing. However, the more the merrier. It can be helpful having additional bras as backups.
