When to get measured for nursing bra?

[flawless29]

Hi everyone, I'm 36 weeks pregnant and I was hoping to get some advice. I'm planning to breastfeed and I'm not sure when I should get measured for a nursing bra. I've heard good things about Bravissimo, but unfortunately, there isn't a store near me. I was thinking of waiting until 38 weeks, but I'm not sure if that's the best idea. I'm also a bit worried about whether my size will change once I start breastfeeding. If anyone has any experience or advice, I would really appreciate it. Thank you . xx

I personally decided it would be a waste until after babe is born and you know you will defo breast feed long term and what size boobs go to. Instead I bought some in a general size - medium large etc. sera phone have some good bamboo nursing bras in the general sizes. I'm usually a 34D and their medium works well for me. I'm 6 weeks in and still using general sizes as my boobs fluctuate an awful lot. I'd also say don't get padded or worried Sri I to as comfy as possible. X

I was a 34C before I got pregnant. I measured myself at 36 weeks using various calculators and they suggested that I was a 40D . So, maybe just going with general sizing like 'large' might be better

At 37 weeks you can buy them to be prepared, but buy them very cheap/ second hand until you know for sure you will breastfeed and what size your will be.
