How to Wash and Care for Nursing Bras with FlexFit Panels

Quick answer

Hand wash your FlexFit nursing bras in cool water with a gentle detergent, then air dry flat to preserve the bamboo fabric and stretch panels. Avoid fabric softener and machine drying.

Step-by-step FlexFit nursing bra care

1. Step 1: Fasten and soak: Close the nursing clips and hook the band. Soak the bra in cool water with a teaspoon of mild detergent for 10–15 minutes. Common mistake: using hot water can set stains and weaken elastic. Always use cool or lukewarm water.
2. Step 2: Gently hand wash: Swish the bra gently with your hands, paying attention to the underarm and cup areas. Avoid scrubbing or twisting the FlexFit panels. Checkpoint: if you see visible residue, rinse and repeat with fresh cool water, not extra detergent.
3. Step 3: Rinse thoroughly: Rinse under cool running water until all soap is gone. Press the bra between a clean towel to remove excess water—do not wring. Common mistake: wringing twists the FlexFit panels and can distort their shape permanently.
4. Step 4: Air dry flat: Lay the bra flat on a drying rack or towel, reshaping the cups and band. Keep away from direct sunlight and radiators. Never machine dry—heat destroys the FlexFit elasticity. Drying flat also prevents the removable pads from bunching.
