Nursing bras and sleeping

[Rosie1]

I have a question about sleeping once LO is born.

At the moment i sleep naked. I always have since about 12 years old, i just can't bear to wear anything in bed, i find it really uncomfortable.

Now i have prepared myself that i will have to wear knickers and pads until i stop bleeding, but am i going to have to wear a bra too? I am guessing i will, as i assume my boobies will be leaking and i'll need to wear breast pads, but is it possible to get away with wearing nothing as the thought of sleeping in a bra really puts me off!

You'll have to wear pads and knickers but i think you'll be fine if you sleep on a towel - then if your boobs leak it'll get soaked up i'm not planning on wearing a bra in bed

i hate wearing anything in bed too, but i did wear my bra for the first few days at they were so big a hard that i needed the support. i don't wear it now just lay on a towel. just have to remember to put a breat pad over the spare boob when i'm feeding him as it just leaks!!!

I wore a nursing bra in bed and to be quite honest they are quite thin material anyway.

If you use a towel instead then that should be fine, you will probably leak.

My boobs have gone quite big and uncomfortable and no doubt will get worse when baby is born, so I've invested in some mothercare sleep nursing bra.
