Maternity & Nursing Bras
Hey mum-to-be! Wondering if maternity bras and nursing bras are worth it? The answer is yes. Regular bras simply can’t keep up as your body changes. Maternity bras are designed with stretch fabrics, seamless shapes and wireless support to keep you comfortable during pregnancy, while nursing bras add easy-access clips for breastfeeding and pumping.
Think of them as everyday essentials that support your body through every stage. At New Beginnings, our bras are wire-free, soft, and rated 4.6–4.9/5 by mums across Australia — making them a trusted choice for comfort and care.
And here’s the best part: every bra includes our unique UGrow™ technology, a blend of elastane and cotton that flexes and grows with you for the perfect fit from pregnancy through to feeding.
