Abstract:
A nursing bra provides both flex and support to a nursing mother and provides ready access to the breasts for infant feeding. In one embodiment, the support is provided by a relatively non-elastic cup member supported by a pair of straps. The top strap is fabricated from a material that stretches more readily than the lower strap. Another embodiment comprises a multifunctional cup comprising a top and bottom section. The top section is made of a flexible and absorptive material which can be conveniently lowered to expose the breast whereas the bottom portion is comprised of a relatively non-flexible support material.
