Nursing bras before birth?

[MaisieMolly]

Hi! Do I need to buy nursing bras before birth? I’m due in a couple of weeks and I’m still wearing the bras I bought in the first and second trimester, which are nursing bras with the drop cup hooks and are very comfy. I thought I’d go up a size again at the end of my third trimester and need to buy more but currently these still fit - do I need to buy bigger ones for my hospital bag or will it be after birth that the boobs get bigger again? Not sure what to do, and dont want to go and get measured As we are shielding so would be an online purchase anyway. Thanks!

Hi,
I think it varies from person to person. I think it’s common for most women to get larger boobs once they start breastfeeding but I found mine stayed the same. I would probably buy one cheap nursing bra in a bigger size just in case to have in your hospital bag x

If you do, just get some cross over crop top style ones as your breast size will likely change.

Thanks for the replies! @dotdashdashdash do you know where I can get one of this style from?
