Investing in a good maternity underwear
It is our recommendation that you purchase quality maternity underwear options. Quality garments tend to be made from superior fabrics and have the extra bells and whistles that cheaper garments do not have. Cotton lining and cotton blend fabrics are particular good as they keep your body cool and help to avoid irritation. Well-made garments will also usually last longer, the elastics and trims will tend to stretch less and the wearer will benefit from greater support.
Benefits of wearing cotton underwear
There are many reasons why you should be wearing cotton briefs. Cotton is a natural fibre that allows the skin to breath, is durable, absorbent, anti-allergic and super comfortable to wear.

Cotton cools the body and allows it to breath. Synthetic fibres such as nylon and lycra do not breath and can encourage the growth of bacteria resulting in itching, infections and thrush like symptoms.
Durable
Cotton is a strong fibre and washes well. If you look after your cotton briefs and wash them in a cool wash they will last wash after wash.
Absorbent
Cotton is not only a great fibre because it cools the body but it also absorbs and wicks unnecessary moisture and perspiration away from the skin.
Anti-allergic
Cotton is a great choice for women who have sensitive skin as it is avoids irritation. Cotton is an anti-allergic fibre.
Comfortable to wear
The most obvious benefit is that cotton briefs are incredibly soft and comfortable to wear. They are perfect choice for pregnant and or new mums as they stretch and move freely with your changing body.
