Buying a nursing bra should be fun; but often it’s frustrating. I recently sat down with Bella Materna‘s Anne Dimond to learn more about finding the perfect fit. She gave me lots of great tips, but first she treated me to a personal bra fitting of my own. Thank you, Anne, for enlightening me on the intricacies of bra-fitting! Here is what I learned:
-
- Find your band size. This is the measurement around your rib cage-along the underside of your breasts. The band should feel snug and firm, “like a new pair of shoes.” The band should not ride up.
- Remember that bras lose elasticity over time, so don’t start with a bra that is a bit loose!
