Finding a breastfeeding sports bra that actually keeps up with your workouts is harder than it sounds. The MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra is built for exactly that — combining the support you need during exercise with the easy access that nursing demands, all in one design that doesn't compromise on performance.
Available in classic Black and White, this nursing sports bra is made from high performance sweat-wicking fabric with laser perforation detailing for added breathability. Whether you're back to your regular training or easing in gently post-partum, it's designed to move with you.
Who This Collection Is For
This maternity sports bra is made for active women who are pregnant or breastfeeding and don't want to put their workouts on hold. If you're looking for a nursing sports bra that handles real movement — not just a gentle walk — this is built for that.
It's also a strong choice for anyone who values practicality without sacrificing style. The clean, minimal aesthetic means it works as well in a yoga class as it does on a run, and the nursing-friendly design means you're never caught out when you need quick access.
When to Wear Maternity Sports Bras
A dedicated maternity nursing sports bra earns its place across a wide range of activities. Low-impact sessions like yoga, Pilates, and walking are obvious fits — but the sweat-wicking fabric and secure fit make it equally capable during higher-intensity workouts like HIIT, cycling, and strength training.
Beyond the gym, it works as an everyday layer. The breathable construction means it's comfortable enough to wear throughout the day, and the nursing access makes it genuinely practical for life outside of workout hours too.
Key Features
High Performance Sweat-Wicking Fabric
The fabric is engineered to pull moisture away from the skin, keeping you cool and dry during intense sessions. No uncomfortable dampness, no distractions — just consistent comfort from warm-up to cool-down.
Laser Perforation Detailing
Strategically placed laser perforations increase airflow exactly where you need it most. It's a technical detail that makes a real difference when the effort builds up.
Nursing-Friendly Design
The bra is designed with nursing access built in, so you don't have to choose between a functional sports bra and a practical nursing bra. It handles both without fuss.
Clean, Versatile Aesthetic
Available in Black and White, the minimal design works across workout styles and doubles as an everyday layer. Simple, functional, and easy to wear with whatever you already have in your kit.

FAQs
What is a nursing sports bra and how is it different from a regular sports bra?
A nursing sports bra combines the supportive, performance-focused design of a sports bra with nursing-friendly access — typically through clip-down or drop-cup cups. That means you get the breathability and fit needed for exercise without having to change into a different bra for feeding. The MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra is built exactly this way, so it functions properly in both contexts.
Is a breastfeeding sports bra suitable for high-intensity workouts?
Yes — the MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra is designed for active use, not just low-impact movement. The high performance sweat-wicking fabric and secure fit make it suitable for everything from yoga and Pilates to HIIT and strength training. If you're returning to more intense exercise, it's worth building back up gradually and choosing the right size for your current fit.
How do I find the right size in a maternity sports bra?
Your size may change during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, so it's worth measuring yourself regularly rather than going off your pre-pregnancy size. Check the Myprotein size guide for up-to-date measurements. A well-fitting nursing sports bra should feel secure without digging in, with cups that sit flush to the body.
Who designed the MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra?
It was designed by Myprotein's in-house design team, with a focus on functionality for active women at every stage of their maternity journey. The technical fabric choices and laser perforation detailing reflect a performance-first approach rather than a purely aesthetic one.
What colours are available in this maternity sports bra range?
The MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra is currently available in Black and White. Both colourways use the same high performance construction, so the choice comes down to personal preference and what works best with the rest of your kit.
How should I care for my nursing sports bra to keep it performing well?
To maintain the fabric's moisture-wicking properties, machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle and avoid tumble drying where possible. Skip fabric softener — it can coat performance fibres and reduce breathability over time. Air drying is the best option for keeping the shape and function intact wash after wash.
Can I wear a maternity sports bra throughout the day, not just during exercise?
Absolutely. The breathable construction and nursing access make it a practical everyday option, not just a workout piece. Many women find a well-designed nursing sports bra more comfortable for daily wear than a standard nursing bra, particularly during the earlier weeks of returning to activity.
Is this breastfeeding sports bra available in Ireland?
Yes — Myprotein ships to Ireland, so the MP Women's Maternity Nursing Sports Bra is available to order regardless of whether you're based in the UK or Ireland. Check the website for current delivery options and timescales to your location.
