Soft cup nursing bras are bras that do not have underwire. Many lactation consultants recommend them to new moms because of this. Research has shown that an underwire bra that does not fit properly could potentially clog a milk duct and. cause breast infections.
Lactation consultants even advise women who typically wore an underwire bra prior to pregnancy to try softcup nursing bras during the first several weeks of breastfeeding. Bravado, La Leche League and Medela all have soft cup nursing bras to suit any budget.
