Maternity Essentials: frequently asked questions
- Do I need a pregnancy pillow?
- By the third trimester most parents sleep better with one. A U-shaped or wedge pillow supports the back, lets you side-sleep, and props the bump.
- When should I size up the bra?
- Around month four, then again in the last six weeks when milk comes in. A soft-cup, wireless bra you can grow into beats a perfectly-fitted one.
