FAQs
What makes this a 'flexi' underwire bra?
The 'flexi' underwire is designed to offer support and shape without the rigidity of traditional underwire, allowing for more comfort and flexibility as your body changes.
How do I determine my correct size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart. Measure your band size (underbust) and cup size (overbust minus underbust). It's also common to need a different size during nursing compared to pre-pregnancy, so trying on is recommended if possible.
Can I wear this bra after I finish nursing?
While designed for nursing, the comfortable support and smooth finish make it suitable for continued wear after nursing, depending on your preference for support and style.
Is the cotton lining suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the cotton-lined cups are designed to be soft, breathable, and gentle on sensitive skin, reducing the risk of irritation.
How often should I wash my nursing bra?
It's generally recommended to wash nursing bras daily or every other day, especially if you experience significant leakage or sweat, to maintain hygiene and comfort.
What is the advantage of the side sling?
The side sling provides additional support to the side of the breast when the cup is dropped for nursing, and it also helps to facilitate skin-on-skin contact between mother and baby.
Can the racerback feature be removed?
The racerback is a conversion option typically achieved by adjusting the straps to meet in the middle at the back. It's not a removable component but a way to wear the existing straps.
Troubleshooting
Bra feels too tight or too loose
Check the band size and cup size. Nursing bras may require a different size than your pre-pregnancy bras. Adjust the bra using the hook and eye closures. If still uncomfortable, consider trying a different size or style.
Underwire is uncomfortable or poking
Ensure the underwire is sitting correctly in the cradle of the bra. The 'flexi' underwire is designed to be more forgiving, but improper fit can cause discomfort. Check that the cup size is correct and the underwire is not digging into the breast tissue.
Nursing clasps are difficult to open or close
Ensure you are pressing the correct parts of the clasp. Some clasps require a specific motion. Practice opening and closing them when not nursing to get accustomed to the mechanism. If a clasp appears defective, contact customer support.
Straps are digging into shoulders
Adjust the strap length. If the issue persists, try converting the bra to a racerback style if possible, as this can distribute weight differently. Ensure the bra is not too small, which can cause straps to dig in.
