What is the difference between a nursing bra and a maternity bra?
The terms “nursing bra” and “maternity bra” are usually used inter-changeably. While there are bras out there that are specific to maternity, most pregnant moms choose to buy nursing bras (with either ‘flaps’ or ones that can be pulled to the side) with the idea that they’ll be able to use the nursing bra after the baby gets here, while the maternity bra is for pregnancy only. Both bras are designed to offer full support for your breasts, and reduce back and shoulder strain. To save money, most pregnant moms purchase nursing bras and wear them throughout their pregnancy.
