SIZING FOR NURSING BRAS


Points to bear in mind when measuring for a nursing bra
  • Purchase your nursing bra as near to your due date as possible (36+ weeks).
  • Keep your bra on when measuring.
  • Ask somebody else to take your measurements.
  • Remember, using the chart below will give a rough guide only because pregnancy distorts measurement (A).
  • Consider your current bra size - are the cups too small?
    Is the underband comfortable?
  • Bear in mind that after the baby is born your rib cage measurement (A) will decrease a little.
  • If you would like to discuss sizing and suitable styles please ring me (Debra) at Mothernature and I will be able to help.
  • The telephone is usually manned but if you get the answerphone, don't be put off, just leave a message and your call will be returned as soon as possible.

Measuring in Inches

To find your BRA SIZE, measure your rib cage in inches (A). Add 4" to an even number and 5" to an odd number (see chart below)

To measure for CUP FITTING, measure the fullest part of your bust (B). The difference between this size and the bra size (C) indicates the cup fitting (see chart below)

Can I exchange the bra or get a refund?

Yes, its all part of the service. If a bra is not suitable send it back straight away and we will exchange it (P&P free) or refund your money provided that it is returned unworn other than for the purpose of checking the fit.

For overseas orders extra post and packaging will be charged on exchanges.
