I’m 26 weeks and size 10 they fit very well and very supportive and comfortable. Not sure how long they will last if I get any bigger but good so far!
I ordered these at the end of November and loved them immediately! But after just a month of wearing them (maybe twice a week at most?) I'm seeing loose threads on the seam up at the top, and worrying about the rest. Hopeful that it's a one off, but unlikely to invest another £50+ in another pair.
Hi Allie,
Thank you for your review - it sounds like there is an issue with your leggings as certainly the stitching shouldn't be fraying - these should be lasting you years! Could I ask you to send some images of the problem to help@natalactive.com so we can look into this for you? Best wishes, Claire x
I wore these with my first and I’m still buying various colours of these now that I’m on my third pregnancy. They are so luxurious and hard wearing. I love them. The best part is I wear them post pregnancy so the investment feels worth it as the quality is so good.
Overall I really like it. Well made. Quality material. Have been able to breastfeed and pump using it. I definitely feel well supported in it, unlike other sports bras I have that are not designed for lactating Mums. I might have needed a different size though as the band feels a little tight around my chest. It will probably loosen up though. Still very new
Good quality material. Feels warm. Zip locations are perfect. Great fit. Would buy again.
Great for nursing while exercising but unfortunately not suitable for high impact exercise as advertised. But otherwise nicely designed.
I have been working out 5x week throughout pregancy (combination of weights/squats and running) and swear by these leggings. Have been wearing them since about 18 weeks (now 34). Bought in multiple colours - both the shorts and the leggings. Now I am in the later stages of pregnancy, these are the only trousers I wear (the black without pockets have a slightly less 'sporty' look and are perfect for work).
Have been living in these sports bras throughout pregnancy (since about 18 weeks). Comfortable and supportive. Washes well and bought additional colours I loved it so much. I am somewhere between sizes (pre-pregnancy 34 DD/E) and found that sizing up to the Large was more comfortable for me. Still plenty of support but I found the band was too tight at the Medium.
The market for nursing sports bras, particularly for larger busts, is incredibly limited from what I have seen, but I expected these to be better given the hype on social media (including from pregnancy fitness influencers) and the high price. However, they are just OK. They are quite ill-fitting, feel like a bikini top, and don't offer great support (although to be fair they are marketed as only medium support). I realise nursing sports bras is a niche market segment because breastfeeding is typically only carried out for a snapshot of time and not all people nursing will require a sports bra, but the broad fitting - especially for larger busts - is never going to work.
Positives are that they are relatively comfortable, the feeding element works well, and they look nice (the blue is a really nice colour).
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on the Freyja. Getting the right fit in a nursing sports bra can be tricky – especially with larger busts – so if you’d like, we’re very happy to go through your measurements and double check you have the best size and style for you. Thousands of mums do love these bras for low to medium-impact movement, and we’re currently working on a higher-impact option too. If you’re open to it, drop us a message and we’ll get you properly supported. Best wishes, Claire x
I ordered this for my daughter in law who welcomed our little grandson in to the world last week. I was going to give it to her for Christmas but on receipt of it I gave it to her early. She loves the quality of it and the concept of the zips, which means that she doesn’t have to hitch the hoodie up in the middle of winter. We are so pleased with the hoodie that I’m going to order a quarter zip top for her too. Well done!
I got recommended this by a friend and it’s by far the best sports/nursing bra I’ve used. It has great support and I’m used it for playing field sports. I would highly recommend!
A lovely soft, supportive and comfortable sports bra that is easy to feed in. I like it so much I have just ordered another in a different colour!
This hoodie has been amazing for those early weeks and months post partum where all you want to wear is leggings. The hoody covers your bum, is soft and cosy and the zips of feeding are fab. Particularly when you’re feeding twins, zips are essential!!
This is my sixth pair of natal active leggings in 4 years and 2nd pregnancy. All still going strong! Just in two sizes ranges depending on pregnancy or not and pockets or no pockets. Even when not pregnant they are my favourite leggings! So comfortable and they keep their stretch wash after wash. Highly recommend!
Love this sports / nursing bra. It's very comfortable as well as very supportive for running and general exercise. I've got two now and I know I'm going to get lots of wear out of them.
This hoody is fantastic for breastfeeding out and about during colder weather, I wear it all the time. The zips allow for discreet breastfeeding in public. The material is really soft and warm. I’m usually a size 10-12 and ordered a medium which fits me well.
Good option as nursing sports bra however sizing options are limited. The Medium is on its tightest clip to fit my 32’ back, but the cups are small for my FF chest.
I love this nursing sports bra! It offers comfortable support that my other various types of nursing bras don’t quite manage. I also love the blue color and have gotten compliments on that. The top of the inner layer offers a good amount of coverage while nursing, though it ends up a bit bunch up when I reclip the outer portion. I’m not sure if that means I should have a different size but it’s not uncomfortable when it bunches or anything, so it is still my favorite nursing bra at the moment (3 months PP).
