About Nursing Bras

Tips on Wearing a Nursing Bra


You may find it comfortable

to wear a nursing bra to bed at night. If so, choose a very comfortable bra that does not have an underwire.

If you find your nursing bra is too tight

over your shoulder, consider buying bra extenders offered by several manufacturers.

Be sure to follow the washing instructions

on your bra. You don't want it shrinking up or wearing thin before its time!


General Tips from Moms who Know!


Be sure to get a nursing bra that stretches

and has easy to open flaps. Try them on and make sure you can undo it with one hand!

When you outgrow your usual bra

size during pregnancy, the time is right to switch to a good-fitting nursing bra.

Buy at least one really pretty nursing bra

to make you feel good!

Buy a couple of nursing bras so you can have a clean one on hand in case you leak.

It can be hard to guess exactly what size

you'll need once you are actually nursing and the initial engorgement period is over. You may want to get one or two in a larger cup size and return them if you don't need them. But, make sure you check on the return policy first!

Nursing bras that have the little plastic clips

for closing are really easy to do one-handed. The hook and eye set up is great too, although they can be tricky to redo with one hand.

Consider buying several different sizes

late in pregnancy and leave them in the boxes. When your milk first comes in, you'll have the right size handy, and you can use the other sizes later or return them.

Chest measurement


-->
-->
Bra fitting experts offer two methods of calculating the chest measurement. The most common method involves running a tape measure just under your breasts, all the way around your back and rib cage. The tape measure should rest flat on your skin and lie straight across your back — not so tight that it digs in, but not so loose that it sags down in back. Make a note of your measurement and add 5 inches. That's your chest size.

You can also estimate your chest size by running a tape measure across your chest above your breasts, under your armpits, and around your back (measure from the same back position as in the first chest measurement option). This method is easier because you don't have to do any addition or other calculation, but some people feel it's less accurate than using the first method.

If your chest measurement comes out as an odd number (such as 31 inches or 33 inches), it's usually a good rule to round up to the next number. Most bras have a few sets of adjustable hooks and eyes, so you can adjust the tightness. It's a good idea to round up, rather than round down, because when you buy a new bra that hooks on the first or middle hooks — rather than on the last — you can leave room for growth.

Cup measurement. As with the chest measurement, when you're measuring for cup size, make sure the tape is not too loose or too tight. If you already own an unpadded bra that fits well, wear it when measuring for cup size. Be careful about the type of bra you wear to take your measurements, though. Sports bras can flatten breasts and give a cup reading that's too small, and padded or lined bras have the opposite effect.

This time, when you run the tape measure around your body, you're going to take the measurement across the fullest part of your breasts. Write down this number. Now subtract your chest measurement. If the difference between the two numbers is less than 1 inch, your cup size is AA. If it's 1 inch, your cup size is A; 2 inches, you're a B; 3 inches you're a C, and so on.

So you've taken your measurements and you're in the fitting room trying a bra in what's supposed to be your size — but it doesn't seem to fit. Now what?

Before you pile on all your clothes just to go out and look for a different size, experiment by making some adjustments to the bra. If the bra has an adjustable closure, extend or shorten the band slightly by moving the hooks to a different spot or adjusting the velcro if the bra has a velcro closing. The bottom band of a properly fitting bra should ride across the middle of your back and pass under your shoulder blades to provide the right support.

A bra's straps allow you to modify how the cups fit and support your breasts. When the straps are the right length, a bra lifts the breasts comfortably and the back of the bra will run straight across your back (if a bra is pulling upward in the back, it may be a sign that the straps are too tight). You should be able to get one finger under the straps to prevent them from digging into your shoulders. In general, girls who are petite will need to wear their bra straps shorter than girls who are tall.

Bra Sizes

Q: What Is The Most Common Mistake Women Make About Their Bra Size?A:The number one mistake is increasing the band size instead of the cup size. For example, you try on a 34C and it feels tight. The mistake is moving to a 36C instead of a 34D. Don't change band size unless you are unable to get a few fingers under the band of your bra.
PANTY FITTING:
Q: How do I eliminate panty lines?A: Wearing a thong or a g-string will eliminate panty lines in the back. However, if you find those uncomfortable, consider wearing a slip or pantliner between your panty and garment. If this doesn't work, consider a long-leg style shapewear brief.
SHAPEWEAR FITTING:
Q: I need more control, should I go down a size?A: Absolutely not! A smaller size won't fit properly and may be painful. Shapewear comes in levels of control: light control, moderate control, firm control and extra firm control. Instead of going down a size, go up a control level.
MATERNITY BRA FITTING
Q: When is the right time to buy a maternity bra?A: The right time is as soon as your breasts begin to swell and become tender. Maternity bras are different from normal bras in that they are specially designed to give extra support. They are also made to fit comfortably on the first (tightest) hook early in your pregnancy and adjust to the final (loosest) hook by your last trimester. However, it is not unusual for women to need a whole new size bra towards the end. Most mothers-to-be need to start wearing a maternity bra by the fourth month of pregnancy.
LAUNDERING LINGERIE:
Q: What is the best way to launder my bras?A: You can wash your bra in the washing machine, but make sure it is hooked together to avoid tangling or hooking onto other clothing. It is always a good idea to put bras in a lingerie bag to keep them separate (see our etcetera department). Wash on delicate cycle in cool water with gentle detergent. And don't ever put your bras in the dryer. Heat breaks down the spandex. A bra gets a lot of wear and tear anyway. So keep it away from the dryer.

Womens Underwear

When we talk of women’s underwear, it conjures up a picture in mind in total contrast to using the term ‘lingerie’ (pronounced as lonj-er-ree), the latter in English specifically applicable to the ladies ‘erotic’ undergarments. Earlier, the most common fabric used for women’s underwear was cotton, obtained from India and Egypt. Today, the fancy women’s underwear is available in nylon, lace, satin, silk, polyester, though none of the material would be categorized as being practical for women’s undergarments as being hygienic, but would more than suffice the purpose of flaunting the visual appeal or being plain erotically sexy. Women’s undergarments have metamorphosed tremendously ever since first incorporated in early eighteenth century. In earlier years, the objective for the women’s underwear was quite straight, to conceal the modesty, to make a ‘presentation’ of the body contours by way of tight corsets, girdles, and later, bras. The most important purpose was however, to maintain personal hygiene. Before the onset of women’s underwear, most ladies wore bulky skirts that in fact concealed their figure. It is only in the early 60’s of this century that women’s underwear got a second look, mostly from women themselves. It was from this time on that women’s underwear actually began to shrink in size and hug the body contours, making it comfortable for them and making them appealing to the opposite sex. It was not long when the women’s underwear industry actually transformed into a full-bloom (pun intended) glamour industry. Today, the women’s underwear industry literally revolves around strutting the ‘branded’ stuff, and therefore there are designs that are intentionally created to reveal instead of conceal. Women’s underwear are now more like accessory, which has to limit the revelation by law, but has means of showing that discreet much to garner attention. But practical women have also moved on from the seductive black satin to the envoirnment friendly green fabrics.

Measuring at Home

Measuring at Home So how do you calculate your chest and cup measurements? It's easy, and it's something you can do in the privacy of your own room at home. All that you need is a tape measure.
Chest measurement. Bra fitting experts offer two methods of calculating the chest measurement. The most common method involves running a tape measure just under your breasts, all the way around your back and rib cage. The tape measure should rest flat on your skin and lie straight across your back — not so tight that it digs in, but not so loose that it sags down in back.

Pajamas

Most women's sleepwear consist of pajamas, although you'll probably find a smattering of varied choices in their drawers - nightgowns, teddies, sweatpants and even boxer shorts. The key to finding the perfect sleepwear for women is to keep an eye out for both style and comfort. Meaning, the style should fit her personality and the size must be right. Not even the most expensive sleepwear from La Perla or Victoria's Secret will make up for the fact that the clothing is several sizes too big or too small. Go for something that looks good and fits well.
Lingerie is a rather challenging department, especially for men who want to buy their wives or girlfriends a nice gift. The variety alone is mind-boggling, with all its different styles, shapes and make. If you want to play it safe, find out what she likes by either asking or snooping around. Her own stash in the drawer should give you a good idea as to the size and style of sleepwear that she prefers.Are you interested in buying Bali bras, olga bras, Wacoal bras, Playtex bras, warners bras or Champion Sports Bras or other bras panties or shapewear come to Isaac Sultan & Sons for all your online bra store and online panties store needs, If you are looking to purchase Bali panties, warners panties, olga panties or barely there panties come to the online pantys store.

Are You Wearing The Right Bra Size?

It is estimated that 70 to 80% of women wear the wrong sized bra. The wrong sized bra can cause many problems such as back pain, breast pain, arm pain, rashes, and headaches. Here are some signs that you aren't wearing the right size bra:
Breast spillage: A properly sized bra should cover the entire breast and no breast tissue should be spilling or budging out. If you are overflowing you bra, try a larger cup size. For a more minor adjustment, try a larger band size. Plus-size women may want to look for a bra manufacturer specific to their needs (eg Lane Bryant or Just My Size).
Bra puckering: A wrinkled cup is a sure sign that your bra is a bit too big , you need to try a smaller size bra cup.
Bra riding up: If your bra band rides up, try a tighter hook or loosen the straps. You can also try reducing your band size but remember that when you go down a band size you may need to go up a cup size to compensate.
Bra digging into shoulder: Especially for women with larger breasts, bra straps can be a true pain. First look for a bra with padded straps that will better distribute the weight of your breasts. It could also be that your band size is a little too big forcing the straps to carry too much weight. Most of your support should come from the band of the bra. Finally, you may just simply need to loosen your straps and let the band do its work.
Underwire poking: If you find that your underwire is poking you, it's often the case that you are wearing too small a bra size. Your breasts are pushing back and forcing the wire to dig into you. Try a bigger size and you should find that the wire lays flat against you. The simplest answer may be to not wear an underwire at all.

Vedette Shapewear:

Getting in Shape It is not uncommon to find that one does not perfectly fit into a new garment or outfit. This can be a frustrating occurrence. This is especially so considering that so many styles these days seem to require a perfect body. Vedette shapewear can assist with this dilemma. Vedette shapewear can help wearers achieve that pleasing body that is sure to produce nothing but satisfaction.
Vedette shapewear is a type of undergarment that is meant to shape the body into a more pleasing figure. This is not done by enhancing the body in any manner. Vedette shapewear does not function in the same manner as a padded bra, for example. Rather, Vedette shapewear will mold and smooth out the bodies natural curves into a perfect figure. Obviously, not everyone is in possession of the perfect body. With Vedette shapewear, you can have one.
It is not uncommon, for example, for many of today’s fashions to require an almost perfectly contoured body to wear. Unfortunately, for the general population, this is not always the case. The result is that many people are only able to observe others wearing the latest fashions. Why be left out? With Vedette shapewear, virtually everyone can enjoy the best clothes. Instead of being left to having to wear oversized clothes that you don’t care for, Vedette shaperwear providers wearers with fashion freedom.
It is not uncommon for shapewear to be worn for specific types of outfits. Vedette shapewear, for its part, rises to meet the challenge of any fashion dilemma. Vedette shapewear comes in the following forms: bodysuits, girdles, control slips, corsets, brassieres, garter belts, control briefs, body briefers, and control camisoles. Additionally, it should be remembered that Vedette shapewear are undergarments, and not meant to be seen (usually).
In this, wearers will find that Vedette shapewear fits comfortably under ones clothes. These form fitting undergarments do not have very noticeable lines that would indicate its presence to the casual onlooker. In fact, when the wearer presents themselves in public, the most common reaction is that one has either lost weight or undertaken an exercise regimen. Vedette shapewear is sure to please the wearer with such terrific results.
Vedette shapewear is also comfortable to wear. Many shapewear garments tend to irritate the skin or otherwise cause discomfort. Vedette shapewear is designed with a cotton interior. This provides Vedette shapewear garments the ability to absorb any perspiration from the skin. Additionally, there are magnets that are strategically placed in many Vedette shapewear garments that purport to balance and regulate the body’s energy.
The bottom line is that Vedette shapewear is the answer to many of the fashion dilemmas that are experienced. With Vedette shapewear, you no longer need a model’s body to wear the latest in fashion styles.Are you interested in buying Bali bras, olga bras, Wacoal bras, Playtex bras, warners bras or Champion Sports Bras or other bras panties or shapewear come to Isaac Sultan & Sons for all your online bra store and online panties store needs, If you are looking to purchase Bali panties, warners panties, olga panties or barely there panties come to the online pantys store.

External Influences In Girdle Selection

Women are apparently susceptible to a wide variety of external influences when they are planning the purchase of a new girdle. Although it is difficult to precisely measure the relative importance of the role played by each of these influences, it can be said that the factors which are most likely to influence the decision to purchase a specific girdle are salesladies, advice from friends and relatives, and to some extent, advertising.
Salesladies apparently play a major role in determining the brand, and sometimes the type of girdle the consumer will ultimately purchase. Many women cited the advice of these salesladies as influencing them in choosing between alternate girdles.
Interestingly, salespeople apparently exert their influence at two distinct levels. Initially, they influence girdle selection by carefully selecting, and thus limiting, the girdles to be shown to the customer. Secondly, the customer has usually narrowed down the choice to two or three girdles. At this time, the saleslady may be asked for her opinion about which girdle fits best, looks best, the "best buy," etc.
Some examples of the ways in which sales personnel can influence girdle selection:
"I never go for style. I've been going to the same salesgirl for years and she knows what I want." "The salesgirl advised me to buy it. It was stitched in a floral pattern." "I remember when I weighed 172 lbs. I had to get a girdle because of a bad back. I had to go and ask the saleslady to find me a girdle that would do such-and-such, and she would suggest a girdle and fit it for me." Friends and relatives also play a role in influencing the girdle purchase decision. Many women actively seek the advice of, or discuss problems they are having with their present girdles, with friends and relatives before going to purchase a girdle.
Mothers of teenage girls, for instance. seem very influential in their daughters' first girdle purchase. In some cases, the mother brought home her own brand for the daughter to try. Interestingly, mothers choosing for teenagers tend to be somewhat more flamboyant than when choosing girdles for themselves. Many bring home patterned and colored girdles. Perhaps these women are expressing their desire to own such girdles but do not have the nerve to purchase then for themselves:
"First I bought the white and then I bought the fuchsia and white which she loved . . . she didn't know they made them in colors. I thought it would be pretty for a young girl. I would wear them but I usually buy the white." In general, both salesladies and friends and relatives exert their greatest influence in the first girdle purchase. After girdles have been purchased a few times, women begin to develop their own buying habits. Among the repeat purchasers, one-third were currently satisfied with a particular brand or type and indicated that they would request it when shopping. Another one-third seemed to be aware of a particular brand or brands but indicate a willingness to switch to a different brand (usually on the advice of another woman or a saleslady). The remaining third appear to be much more casual and unconcerned about girdle brands. These women usually describe their particular girdle requirements to the saleswomen and then rely on their recommendations.
As might be expected, girdle purchasers, like other groups of consumers, tend to minimize the role of advertising in effecting their purchase decisions. Only a small minority of women recalled specific girdle advertisements and an even smaller proportion indicated they were actually swayed by any ads they may have seen. This feeling, however, was not universally held and some women did credit advertising:
"I buy the (brand name) because they have such marvelous advertising -there isn't even a girdle in the picture." Additionally, some women respond to point-of-purchase displays and sample girdles which have been left lying on the display counter.

Different Types of Panties for Women

Although some men have the ability to handle the task, most men should become educated before they attempt to enter a search to make a purchase of panties for a spouse, girlfriend, or significant other. Unless you know exactly what you are expected to buy, do not attempt it without education first. You have to be familiar with the different panties types that are for sale throughout the stores so that you don’t get there and look foolish when you find that you have no idea whatsoever what to buy.If you have been with your wife or girlfriend when she has bought panties, you may be in a better position than others to know what she likes; however, unless you live together, do you assume because she wears a certain type of panties when you are intimate, that she wears those all the time. Women are notorious for buying panties just for “special occasions” when they want to feel really sexy, and have something different for every day wear. This can be confusing to men who are content to wear the same kind of boxers or jockeys every day of the week, but it’s important to learn before you make a mistake and buy the wrong thing.Many women, for example, enjoy wearing boxers and a tee-shirt to lounge around the house or as nightwear. They are loose fitting and comfortable to wear when sleeping, relaxing, or doing chores around the house. Although some women do like to wear this kind of panties on a regular basis, be certain you know that first. Other styles include the high cut brief, regular brief, bikini, and thong. All of these usually come in both cotton and nylon, but some women prefer silk, which are usually only available in either lingerie shops or in high end department stores such as Macy’s, Lord and Taylor, J.C. Penney’s, and the like.In order to confuse men even more, women sometimes like to wear different linds of panties during certain activities such as work instead of home. There are also those, especially thong wearers, who prefer regular panties during their monthly cycle. There are those women who even buy intimate apparel from Victoria’s Secrets or Fredrick’s of Hollywood only for those intimate moments with their significant other, so it’s important to know how your partner’s mind works. Of course, if your plan is to buy something for those intimate moments, you are certainly free to buy something sexy that would be appealing to you for those times. Do not, however, buy something for her to wear at any other time unless you know her routine.Some may think it’s a little “out there” for women to be so fussy about intimate apparel, but there are some women who will only wear a bra and panties that come in matching sets, and others will only wear certain brands, fabrics, or styles. It comes down to a personal preference, just as men may only like a certain brand of cologne, sneaker, or car. Women are often seen as fussy by men, because they don’t often look in the mirror to see their own preferences as being “picky,” only that of others. Remember, your partner may be choosy about the panties she wears so that she can look sexy for you during those intimate moments, so don’t be too hard on her!
