Choose the nursing bra that suits you
Breastfeeding is a unique journey for every mother, and choosing the right nursing bra can make this experience both comfortable and practical. Combining the necessities of support, comfort, and functionality, nursing bras can be the ideal choice for your breastfeeding period.
Step 1: Assess your needs
Start by identifying what is important to you and assess how much support you need. At Carriwell, we offer nursing bras with different levels of support, from minimal to maximum support. Our Patented Gel Support provides the same support as an underwire bra, but with a gel that allows milk to flow freely through your mammary glands. We also have bras designed specifically for nighttime use that won't make nighttime nursing difficult.
You can choose between nursing bras with different types of support:
- Light support , where wide straps and the elastic around the body provide support. Here we can recommend Original maternity and nursing bra
- Medium support , which includes light support with padded inserts in the bra or our Gel Support. The Gel Support is shaped to the breast and provides support similar to a traditional metal underwire, but without interfering with breastfeeding. Here we can recommend Maternity and nursing bra with padded insert or Maternity and nursing bra with Gel-Support®
- Maximum support , combining all levels of support; wide straps and padded inserts as well as Gel-Support. Maternity and nursing bra with padded insert and Gel-Support®
Step 2: Find your size
To achieve success with your new bra, a proper fit is essential. Carriwell offers a wide range of sizes and designs to suit different body types.
We recommend that you get measured – if you want to purchase a nursing bra from Carriwell, you can use our online “find my size” tool under each individual bra, and based on two measurements: under the bust and over the bust.
Based on these two measurements, the tool will be able to give you a qualified estimate of which size nursing bra you should choose.
If you don't have the opportunity to measure yourself, you can also use various measurement charts that are under every product.
Step 3: Prioritize support and comfort in your nursing bra
Since no two bodies are the same, it is important to find a nursing bra that provides the right support and comfort. The larger your bust, the more support we will recommend.
Our bras adapt to the body's changes during pregnancy and breastfeeding and are designed to provide a consistently comfortable and supportive fit, even before and after breastfeeding, as the fabric is designed to always stretch to the necessary level. We also include a bra extender with all our nursing bras, so you can confidently buy your nursing bra during pregnancy.
Step 4: Maintain freedom of movement and make room for convenient breastfeeding
Our bras are designed for practical breastfeeding with easy opening systems and clips that make breastfeeding simple and convenient. We also recommend our night nursing bras, which combine sufficient support with easy access to baby at night.
Choosing the right bra is about combining needs, comfort and reliability. With over 25 years of experience, Carriwell understands the needs of breastfeeding and offers products designed for you, as our products have been tested by thousands of mothers worldwide.
Give yourself the best experience while breastfeeding by choosing a nursing bra that suits your needs and prioritizes both comfort and functionality – you deserve it.
