Can COVID-19 pass through breast milk? It isn't likely, say the CDC and ACOG. But the ACOG recommends letting someone who isn't sick bottle feed your baby your breast milk, to avoid passing the infection to the infant.
"The nursing bra should be comfortable, feel supportive, cover your entire breast, and you should be able to undo the clasp easily with one hand," Rosenthal said. "Choose a soft fabric that will stretch with you, as breast size can change throughout the day as well. It shouldn't feel too tight, itchy or irritating."

How we tested nursing bras I had a baby in October 2021, and cycled through these bras for three months as I nursed, pumped and eventually combination-fed. I was a size 36C before pregnancy, and a 36D toward the end and after.
Take care of yourself and stay relaxed, first of all. While it's true COVID-19 does cause more severe disease in people who are pregnant compared to people of the same age who aren't, the risk of severe illness is still low overall, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

What to do if you get COVID while pregnant The CDC says that people who are pregnant and have COVID-19 symptoms should contact their health care provider within 24 hours. However, for most parents-to-be who have COVID-19, advice on what to do when sick will be similar to the advice for other people: stay home, isolate from other people in your house and take care of yourself by resting and staying hydrated.

A long list of health conditions (pregnancy and being postpartum are two of them) can increase someone's risk of severe COVID-19 disease, including hospitalization and death. If you're pregnant and also have a medical condition, such as diabetes, asthma or high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend additional treatment.

Kindred Bravely maternity products aren't cheap, but in my experience they're worth the investment. This combo nursing and pumping bra was my go-to during an intense time of triple-feeding in order to increase my supply (for the uninitiated, that's a grueling process of nursing/pumping/hand-expressing all day and night). It's easy to throw on over your head without any clasps, and the hooks to access the layer for pumping and then nursing were easy to use -- a major benefit for nighttime feeding and nursing sessions. The pumping portion holds the flanges in place so you can pump hands-free. Despite the extra layer of fabric for pumping, this bra was more comfortable and less lumpy under my clothes than other pumping bras I tried. Kindred Bravely also offers a similar, non-sports bra option, the Sublime Hands-free Pumping & Nursing Bra.
Some experts, including La Leche League, recommend breastfeeding people avoid underwire bras, as they may put pressure on one area of the breast throughout the day, potentially leading to blocked ducts and mastitis. However, other experts say that this is only a risk if the bra is too tight. I tested some underwire options due to their popularity and availability, but you should proceed with caution there.
