Good nursing bra can prevent Blocked Ducts

Blocked duct is a common problem that new Mom may face during the breastfeeding. It's painful! I know how bad it can be, as I have suffered from that a lot. Plus, during the time the block is present, the baby is fussy when nursing on that side, as milk flow may be slower than usual.

Based on my experience, I think using good nursing bra can prevent blocked ducts. I tried many different nursing bras and conclude that good nursing bra should have following three features.

1. Bra should not have string in it, whether the plastic one or metal one. In breastfeeding, breast needs space to grow when milk comes. 
2. Bra should have thin and stretch cloth, as breasts need to breathe. And it's very easy to get sweaty within the first several months postpartum. 
3. Bra should have good support at the bottom. Otherwise, your breast may get saggy.
