Maternity Swimwear Tips

If you are pregnant, then congratulations! For those of you who have always enjoyed a swim or fancy keeping fit during your pregnancy then you will be needing a maternity swimsuit or maternity swimwear.

Here are some tips to look out for:

• If you are conscious of your body getting bigger then go for darker colours as this will help to slim your frame
• During pregnancy your bust grows as well as your tummy area so your new maternity swimwear will need to give you extra bust support.
  
• Try to avoid strapless, or thin strapped maternity bathing suits as they will offer very little in the way of bust support.
  
• Go for wider straps on your maternity swimsuit, tankini or bikini as this will give you extra bust support.
• If you have a large bust and your bust has increased in size during pregnancy then go for adjustable straps and wide straps for comfort.
  
• A two piece, bikini, is a great idea if you feel confident with your growing maternity body, as bikinis will fit around your changing body shape and give you a balanced look as well as allowing you to show off your baby bump.
• Go for lycra based material in your maternity swimwear as this will have the most give and therefore will be more comfortable as your body grows.
• Look for maternity swimwear that has support, not only around the breast, but also around your tummy area and your baby bump.
• The tankini is a very flattering look as it covers the body, but it is also comfortable as the top allows movement around your tummy area.
• Some maternity swimsuits and tankini tops have a shelf bra inside to give extra support to the bust.
• Halterneck maternity swimwear can help to draw attention away from the stomach area to the bust area, the halterneck also draws attention away from the hip area.
• Detail around the bustline such as texture and large designs add decorative detail and help to break up the area that focuses on the cleavage, creating the illusion of curves and accentuating the area.
• If you have large hips then go for higher cut swimwear and dark colours on the bottom half to slim the area and draw attention away from the hips.
• Go with maternity swimwear that suits your body type as well as your pregnancy body!
• If you intend to do some aqua exercise such as aqua aerobics then opt for a maternity swimsuit with a bra shelf, as a tankinis will rise up when exercising in the water.
• Make sure that the maternity swimwear that you choose to buy is comfortable and is not too tight around your tummy area.

Maternity Bras

We were really happy to hear that one of the girls who works in the office is pregnant, she is having a stress free pregnancy, blooming and blossoming and I am sure will continue to be so until her delivery date. The one thing that is causing some discomfort for her is trying to achieve a comfortably fitting bra – she is ideally placed to have this rectified!

The body changes from conception and changes to the breast are often the first indication that a women is pregnant as the breasts start changing, in readiness for breastfeeding. So it is important to start wearing a good supportive bra as soon as possible and one that, as far as possible, will be flexible enough to wear as the bust increases and later on when the bust reduces again.

During pregnancy the abdomen and lower rib cage increase in size and this will cause the underbust measurement to increase and you will probably find that you will need to purchase several bras during pregnancy, as the breast and the underbust size increases throughout pregnancy – the breast increases due to weight gain as well as preparing for breast feeding and then when the baby is born you will find that the underbust measurement decreases whilst the breast size will increase due to the breast milk coming in.

After a few months of breastfeeding you will find that the breast size decreases and once you stop breastfeeding the bust will return to the size you were before pregnancy, however, you may well find that your cup size has increased .

To begin with it is important to measure yourself and to keep measuring throughout pregnancy

To check your bra size, you need only take two measurements which are -
1. Underbust Measurement
Measure under your bust:
add 4ins. if the measurement obtained is an even number of inches
add 5ins. if the measurement obtained is an odd number of inches.

(For example, if your underbust measurement is 31ins., add 5ins. to obtain bra size 36, or, if your underbust measurement is 30ins. add 4ins. to obtain bra size 34.)
2. Overbust Measurement
Measure round the fullest part of your bust to determine Cup size.
If the bust measurement: is:
same as your bra size, your Cup size is A.
1in. more gives Cup size B
2in. more gives Cup size C
3in. more gives Cup size D
4in. more gives Cup size DD
5in. more gives Cup size E
and so on through F, FF and G

An example:
Underbust measurement of
29in. + 5in. = bra size 34
Overbust measurement of
34in. = Cup A

So the correct fitting would be 34A.

These notes aim to provide general indication of your bra size. However, the best guide is a bra you already wear which is comfortable. Please also bear in mind that sizes do vary between manufacturers and between different styles of bra.

When you are trying a bra on bear in mind that the breasts should be fully covered by the bra cup for support, ensure that the fabric is not pressing on the breast tissue, choose a soft cup – a wired bra may not be as comfortable as the breast increases – although I do believe that you do not have to give up on pretty lacy feminine bras so maybe wear a wired one for a night out every now and again! you may find that one breast is larger than the other so having a soft filler for the smaller breast will ‘even out’ the bust, think about the fabric the bra is made of, I can remember having hot flushes when pregnant and ensuring that the bra fabric is breathable will make you that much more comfortable.

We have a lovely selection of maternity / nursing bras, and please do not hesitate to contact me on 01439 798388 if you would like any advice or guidance.
