Do I need to wear a bra during confinement?

Women's breasts are very easy to deform, so female friends need to rely on wearing bras to correct their breasts in their daily sexual life to prevent sagging breasts. When women are in confinement, this period is a very special period. Because women have to breastfeed, it is very inconvenient for them to wear bras. So do women need to wear bras during confinement?

Do I need to wear underwear during confinement?

Many mothers neglect breast care during the confinement period because they think it is inconvenient to wear a bra. In fact, it is very necessary to wear a bra during breastfeeding. Because the breasts are larger and fuller during the lactation period, the breast skin lacks elasticity and is prone to sagging, affecting the beauty of the breasts. Sagging breasts will also affect blood circulation and are not conducive to milk secretion. Therefore, mothers should wear suitable bras during the confinement period.

Experts say that during the confinement period, the mother's breasts will become fuller and swollen as the secretion of milk increases. If you do not wear a bra during the confinement period, your breasts may easily become painful, broken, or have milk leaking out due to collision, friction, squeezing, and other actions, which may easily lead to nipple inflammation and bacterial growth, which is not conducive to the healthy development of the breasts.

Therefore, in this case, for the sake of breast health and hygiene, experts recommend that mothers need to wear bras during the confinement period. However, the bras worn during the confinement period are not ordinary bras, but special nursing bras for mothers. This type of bra is more comfortable and healthy than ordinary bras. Take the Qinjing nursing bra as an example. The lining of the Qinjing nursing bra is combed cotton fabric, which is comfortable and healthy. It also has a breast pad on the inside of the cup, which can play a good hygienic role for mothers with excessive milk secretion.

The role of wearing a bra during confinement

1. Increase chest stability and support the chest

One of the most obvious functions of wearing a bra during confinement is that it can provide a stable support for the breasts, thereby protecting the breasts and preventing them from sagging due to gravity when walking, exercising, etc. due to the lack of support.

2. Protect breasts from scratches

If you only wear outer clothes without a bra during the confinement period, it is easy to rub your breasts, especially your nipples. Under long-term friction, the nipples may break the skin and cause abrasions, which is very detrimental to breastfeeding after delivery. Wearing a bra, especially a nursing bra, can prevent the nipples from rubbing against outer clothing. The fabric on the inside of a nursing bra is very soft and will not cause direct damage to the nipples.

3. Nursing bras can effectively deal with the problem of milk overflow and ensure the hygiene of the breasts.

When the milk is full, the nipples will easily secrete milk and soak the outer clothes. If they are not changed in time, it will easily lead to bacterial growth, which poses a safety hazard to the mother's own hygiene and the baby's breastfeeding hygiene. Therefore, in order to ensure the hygiene of the breasts, wearing a bra during confinement is a wise choice.

Wearing a bra during confinement is an inevitable measure, but here we need to remind the majority of mothers: Although wearing a suitable bra can effectively protect the breasts and spine, bras are not worn 24 hours a day. Experts from Qinjing Nursing Bras point out that women during confinement usually wear ordinary bras for about 8 hours a day, and it is best not to exceed 12 hours. When resting, you can take off the bra to let the breasts rest and recharge.
