The recommended time for being fitted for a nursing bra is usually around 37 weeks, or once the baby’s head has engaged in the pelvis. For the best advice about nursing bras, it’s probably wise to contact a nursing bra specialist. The National Childbirth Trust (NCT) has a network of trained nursing bra specialists who will do a fitting in the comfort of their home. The bras they tend to recommend are those made by Mava.
