Thanks everyone - that helps. 

I'm DD at the moment, still wearing underwire and think I'll keep wearing them for a bit longer. 

I don't know why the Pamela Andersons of the world pay all that money for boobs.  I'll be glad to be back to normal size.

I moved to non underwire in the second trimester. I got advised by a woman in a specialist bra shop that underwire can interfere with milk production & contribute to mastitis. She said not to get fitted for a maternity bra until about wk 36.]]> Mon, 03 Sep 2007 08:13:40 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207254&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207254 <![CDATA[when to stop wearing underwire bras? : I bought my maternity bra at about...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207245&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207245 Author: NovemberMum

36/38 weeks...cause by then they should be as big as they are going to get (pre milk)...but i dont know about the underwire. i thought it was only inadvisable after your milk had come in. ]]> Sun, 02 Sep 2007 23:18:34 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207219&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207219 <![CDATA[when to stop wearing underwire bras? : my consulting midwife told me...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207209&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207209 Author: Bobbie

my consulting midwife told me to stop but my midwife doesn't seem to be worried. I think that like most things there is a big element of what you're comfortable with.

Given that I'm now an H cup there's no way I'm changing to a non underwire - no underwire is completely ineffective and very uncomfortable (I had a soft cup bra at the 10F size and even then it was useless).

I've heard the best time to look at maternity bras is in the 8th month - you can go and get fitted professionally and by then you should have a fair idea of your size.

I wasn't told this and I wore an underwire bra right up until I gave birth. I started looking for maternity bras quite early on but got bigger sizes because I knew I would go up in size. I didn't breastfeed so had no use for them at all anyway. ]]> Sun, 02 Sep 2007 21:33:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207196&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207196 <![CDATA[when to stop wearing underwire bras? : My midwife told me to stop when...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=10423&PID=207171&title=when-to-stop-wearing-underwire-bras#207171 Author: Brenna

Hi,

I was just wondering if there is a certain time that you should stop wearing underwire bra's?  and... when is the best time in your pregnancy to start looking at maternity bras?
