Support and Style With Bella Materna Nursing Bras ~ Luck Be A Baby Celebration

Since I am planning to nurse our baby due in just a few short weeks, I have been looking for a comfortable and stylish nursing bra this time around. With our first two children, I didn't find a nursing bra that was both comfortable and stylish at all. I never really liked the fit or way they looked under clothes. When I received the opportunity to look over the Sexy Nursing Bra from Bella Materna for our Luck Be A Baby Celebration, I was excited to see how they rated.

Bella Materna was started by two ladies, Candace and Anne, in 2000 who noticed a need for stylish nursing essentials, when they heard "there is no such thing as a pretty nursing bra". I have to say those were my exact thoughts 11 1/2 years ago when I was shopping for my first nursing bra. They now carry camisoles, lounge wear, sleepwear, transition, and maternity bras besides their nursing bra selection.

Since first finding out I was expecting our third baby, I have heard more times than I can count, "I can't believe you are starting over".  My "Baby" turned six in October, and I almost feel like I am preggers for the first time all over again with so much time between them. This pregnancy has not been like either one of my other two, and I was looking for some up to date reading material for a refresher course. Basically, I was in desperate need of advice and tips. Thank goodness I received The Mommy MD Guide to Pregnancy and Birth to review!

This book includes forty-three chapters. One chapter for each week of your pregnancy, and a couple extra with information for after your baby is born.

Each chapter has a simple to follow outline. The first part which is divided into 3 sections always starting with information about you and your baby.
