Pregnancy Update # 2 + Bravado Bras.

Now being 9 months pregnant, I’m officially full term, which means should the baby make an early appearance, then he’ll be fully formed and everything should be where it’s meant to be, which is a relief. With that said I’m quite happy for him to stay put for the timebeing. We’re pretty much ready for his arrival – well I say that, but I still haven’t packed my hospital bag yet. I know, I know, I’m cutting it fine. I’ve probably bought too much, it’s near on impossible for me to walk past Gap, without popping in to see what Baby Gap have on offer. This little man has quite an impressive wardrobe and more shoes than any other male I know!

I haven’t attended any evening blogging events for the past few months. The thought of travelling on public transport during rush hour when I just don’t need to, fills me with dread. You really discover the heroes and villains of the great British public when you’re pregnant, let me tell you! I have no desire to stand awkardly on a packed tube with a sizeable bump silently hoping somebody will be kind enough to offer me their seat.

I’ve been wearing their bestselling bra, The Bodysilk Seamless Nursing Bra (£30), which feels like a second skin. Throughout this pregnancy, my nipples have been to hell and back and the bra provides much welcomed both comfort and support.

Available in Pink Ice, Ivory, Butterscotch and Black, sizing goes to 46F (S-XL).  Both are extremely comfortable, and are made from from a super stretchy, seamless, buttery soft fabric.. Breastfeeding (which I intend to do) is made easy with cups that unclip at the shoulder, giving your baby easy access. Its removable foam cups mould to your shape and gives you lining to cover nipples and breast pads.

This style also comes with a proprietary Bra Conversion Kit (BCK) which allows you to covert it back into a ‘regular bra’ once your nursing journey is over. Celbrity Jennifer Garner is known to wear this to yoga, which shows its versatility.

I’m really pleased with them and hope they’ll prove to be just as comfortable (particularly the Bodysilk bra) once baby’s here and I start breastfeeding.

You can find Bravado bras at Jojo Maman Bebe and John Lewis stores. A full list of UK stockists can be found here.
