A member asked:
Can i wear an underwire bra while pregnant?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: A good supportive bra is a wonderful thing! as long as they are comfortable, underwire bras are fine in pregnancy. There may come a time when the wires dig in or are uncomfortable. At that point you should change to something else.

If not uncomfortable: ...Then, yes - but obviously there is more chance of it pinching.
