The Only Nursing Bra You’ll Ever Need
It’s no secret that I’ve struggled with breastfeeding. I’ve tried it all; lactation coaches, supplements, pumping, every breastfeeding pillow on the market. I’ve jumped through hoops to give my kids as much breast milk as I could. When I had Norah, I made it a priority to take a little pressure off myself and try to enjoy the experience more. That’s why I made a point to do things that would make the journey less stressful and more enjoyable. For me, this meant finding clothing that is easy to feed in to finally finding a comfortable nursing bra to sleep in.
When I found out about Cake Maternity, it was a match made in heaven. Not only do they have beautiful and comfortable bras, but they also provide support to mamas and donate to two notable charities. You know I’m all about creating a village of mamas lifting up other mamas, and this company is doing just that.
The first bra I was gifted from Cake is their Milk Bamboo Lux Sleep Bra. This nursing bra is made from super soft, sustainable bamboo to keep you dry and comfortable all night long. Norah is still nursing once in the middle of the night, and believe me, nothing is worse than waking up wet because your bra was so uncomfortable you subconsciously took it off in your sleep! The cross over cups can easily be pulled aside for comfortable feeding, while awake or half-asleep. Not to mention, the silky soft, moisture-wicking cups are so comfortable, and the unique reinforced racerback panel with power mesh adds extra support and ensures Milk stays put all night long!
As a former stylist, I’m always looking for bra’s that work well under my day-time clothes. That’s where the Viva T-Shirt Nursing Bra comes in! The flexi-wire support is perfect for pregnancy and beyond, offering lift and shape for most breast shapes, and includes easy drop-down cups designed to be clipped single-handedly providing easy access for breastfeeding. I also received the Tutti Frutti Nursing Bra, which is one of their wire-free options. It’s the ideal t-shirt bra if you’re looking for style, comfort, and support.
I highly recommend checking out Cake Maternity if you’ve been struggling with finding something that works for you. Here is my friendly reminder; you matter in this process too! So find your support whatever that looks like, whether it’s a bra or a friend. Take a deep breath, and remember no matter how you feed your baby, you’re a great mother.
