Welcome to your go-to spot for blending wellness and style, especially when it comes to finding the best sports bra for breastfeeding. You're not just looking for any bra; you need one that keeps up with your high-impact life, from power meetings to power workouts, without missing a beat in comfort or style.

Understanding the Difference: Low Impact vs. High Impact Sports Bras

Understanding the difference between low-impact and high-impact sports bras can make all the difference in your workout routine. Let's break it down, so you can make the best choice for your lifestyle.

Low Impact Sports Bras: For Gentle Moves and Cozy Days

Low impact sports bras are designed for activities that involve less bounce and more stretch. Think yoga, walking, or even your light housework – these are your low-impact activities.

• Features to Look For: Look for bras with wide straps, front closures for ease, and enough stretch to accommodate different size needs. These bras often have softer, more flexible materials, providing comfort without the tight constriction.

• Best for Breastfeeding Moms: As the best nursing bras, low-impact sports bras usually come with convenient features like front closures, making nursing a breeze. They are also great for everyday wear, adapting to your body's changes during and post-pregnancy.

High Impact Sports Bras: For When You're on the Move

High-impact sports bras are built for activities that involve more intense movement and bouncing, like running, aerobics, or high impact maternity sports.

• Features to Look For: These bras are designed to offer maximum support. They often have features like wider bands for underbust support, adjustable straps for a customized fit, and moisture-wicking fabrics to keep you dry and comfortable.

• Best for Active Moms: If you're engaged in physical activity that raises your heart rate significantly, a high impact sports bra is a must. It ensures that you're supported no matter the movement, reducing discomfort and the risk of strain.  

General Rule of Thumb

As a general rule, consider the level of physical activity you'll be engaging in. For lower impact, gentle activities, a softer, more flexible bra is ideal. For high-energy, high impact activities, opt for a bra that promises firm support and stability.

Stay Hydrated, Stay Fabulous: EasyJug, Your Ultimate Breastfeeding Ally

 

Hydration: A Key Pillar in a Breastfeeding Mom's Life

Hey, fabulous moms! We've talked about the best sports bras for your active lifestyle, but there's another hero in the journey of motherhood and fitness – hydration. Whether you're powering through high-impact activities or enjoying a peaceful yoga session, staying hydrated is essential for your recovery and achieving your fitness goals. This is where EasyJug, a revolutionary hands-free water bottle, becomes your new must-have accessory.

The Quest for the Perfect Fit: It’s a Thing!

Finding a sports bra that offers easy access for breastfeeding while ensuring maximum support for your post-baby bod can feel like searching for a peaceful moment in a toddler’s playdate. But don’t fret! Whether you're cheering on your favorite college team or crushing it at your book club, you deserve a nursing sports bra that feels like it was tailored just for your cup size and breast size.

Step-by-Step Guide: Scoring the Right Fit

Let's dive into the essentials of finding that perfect fit. It's like assembling a dream team; every player needs to be in the right position. So here's our step-by-step guide to sizing up the best nursing sports bras for our all-star moms!

 

Step 1: Know Your Current Bra Size

• Before you were a mom, you may have known your pre-pregnancy size like the back of your hand. Now, it's time for a refresh. Start with measuring your rib cage directly under your bust. Make sure the tape is snug – but not too tight – for the perfect fit.

Step 2: Account for Cup Size Changes

• Your cup sizes can fluctuate during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Measure around the fullest part of your bust to find your current size. If you're a new mom, remember, it’s common to go up one or even two cup sizes during this time.

Step 3: Adjust for Comfort and Support

• Shoulder straps should be adjustable to accommodate the changes your body will go through. A good nursing sports bra will have straps that don't dig in or slip off, providing extra support for your exercise routine.

Step 4: Embrace Flexibility

• Since your body will continue to change, especially in the third trimester and beyond, look for bras with multiple hook-and-eye closures. This allows for adjustments to find that good fit as your body transitions postpartum.

Step 5: Test the Band and Cup Fit

• The band should fit more snugly than a regular sports bra but not so tight that it restricts. The cups should contain your entire breast without spillover.  

Step 6: Choose Easy Access for Nursing

• Look for bras with simple front closures or clips that can be managed one-handed – because let's be honest, you're probably holding your little one in the other arm.

Step 7: Consider High Impact Options

• If you're the type to indulge in high-impact maternity sports or just running after a toddler, ensure the bra provides enough support to prevent discomfort. Ultimate high-performance maternity vests or a great sports bra with encapsulated cups might be your match.

Step 8: Final Checks

• Move around, stretch, bend over – mimic the movements of your daily life. The bra should stay put, keep you contained, and not chafe or restrict. Remember, a great sports bra is like a best friend – there through every twist, turn, and little life adventure.

Remember, moms, your comfort is our goal, and your wellness is the score we're after. With our guidelines, we hope finding your ideal nursing sports bra will be as seamless as enjoying those precious moments with your new arrival.
