We take our quality extremely seriously here at Hotmilk and we remove from stock any damaged items to ensure customers get the best possible garments. From time to time we do have some factory flaws though so instead of adding to landfill which does nothing to help our environment, the wearable items we thought we'd offer out to you. They fit perfectly as per regular garments, they just have some physical flaws.
Types of flaws tend to be wrinkles from crushing, thread pulls, twisted straps or small marks which may or may not come out with wash or wear, we cannot guarantee it, but they make great back up bras for comfy days around the house.
*Styles vary and a particular style or preference cannot be catered for.
* Factory seconds cannot be returned. No further discounts apply.

Common Nursing Bra questions
We say as soon as you feel your bust is changing. This varies greatly for everybody, but you'll notice a change in how your bra is fitting and you don't want any digging in. Buy 2–3 to start — your size may shift slightly once your milk comes in. If you experience significant growth earlier in pregnancy, a soft wire-free maternity bra can bridge the gap like our My Necessity bras.
Yes — you can wear our flexiwire technology, athough we like to say not to wear them for the weeks around when you give birth and are most sensitive. At this time you don't want anything pressing on milk ducts, which can contribute to blockages. Most lactation experts suggest avoiding rigid underwire in the first 6 weeks while your supply is establishing. After that, a well-fitted flexiwire or soft underwire nursing bra is safe for most women. Try Temptation.
We have a fit quiz here to help you with this. Or contact us for help with your size. During pregnancy, we recommend to roughly go up one cup and one back size from your pre-pregnancy bra as a place to start. Often you'll get fuller again in the bust when the milk comes in at birth. Then at around 3 months they'll settle again.
A nursing bra makes breastfeeding significantly easier. Regular bras don't accommodate the daily size fluctuations as your breasts fill and empty, and accessing them for feeding is awkward — especially one-handed with a hungry baby. A nursing bra with a drop-down clip lets you feed quickly and comfortably without fully undressing.
We recommend at least 3 nursing bras — one to wear, one to wash, one spare. In the early weeks when leaking is common, a fourth is useful. Start with 2–3 before your baby arrives, then add more once your size has settled around 6–8 weeks postpartum.
Yes, you have enough costs to worry about! A nursing bra with multiple hook-and-eye settings and adjustable straps can accommodate your changing size throughout pregnancy and carry you through into breastfeeding — so you don't need to buy separate maternity and nursing bras.

Born from a founder who refused to settle
Twenty years ago, Lisa Ebbing refused to wear nursing bras that made her feel invisible, just because she was becoming a mother. That refusal sparked a revolution. Today, Hotmilk has sold over 2.5 million maternity and nursing bras and briefs worldwide.
