Your bra size can increase quite dramatically during pregnancy! You may have to wear several different bra sizes and you’ll probably need both bigger cup and back sizes (as your bump grows and your ribcage expands). It’s incredible what our bodies do – we really are amazing!

Because your body and boobs will be changing so much, you need to keep an eye on how well your bras fit you throughout your whole pregnancy, so you can spot when you need a different size.

How to measure bra size during pregnancy?

We don’t use tape measures to work out your bra size at Bravissimo. The good news is that the principles of knowing when your bra is a good fit are exactly the same as when you’re not pregnant (you can use the three step check from our bra fitting guide). The only difference to bear in mind when you are pregnant is that you need to fasten new bras on the tightest hook, rather than the loosest, giving you room to expand!

If you are not sure, please call us or talk to us via Live Chat and we can explain what you should be looking out for – we really do love to help, our contact details are at the bottom of this page. Just remember to keep checking the fit of your bras regularly.
