Netflix made a mistake by canceling this show. Many fans believed it was a publicity stunt -- there was no way the streamer would stop funding this acclaimed, if expensive, series intended for five seasons, each wildly different in style and setting from the previous.

That's right. Forget Marvel. This is the show to watch if you want a rich, existential look at the interconnectedness of all things. The world of the OA is vast and the way it works follows the most unexpected rules.

The OA doesn't abide by any strict TV series formula either. The opening credits don't appear until 57 minutes into the show. It was written like an eight-hour film, with a novelistic approach. You don't meet some of the main characters until a third of the way through.

How to choose a nursing bra: When to shop, and how to figure out your size Choosing the best nursing bra for you depends on a few factors: your bust size, your style preferences (like sport, bralette, and hooks versus no hooks) and when you plan to wear it (daytime, nighttime, for exercising or just around the house). You're also going to want something comfortable with a good fit, and that you can maneuver easily. Trust me, you don't want to be fussing with snaps for long when you have a hungry baby on your hands.

Larger-busted people looking for more coverage will want to check out this bra from Motherhood Maternity. Similar to the Thirdlove bra above, this is an underwire option that closely resembles a traditional bra, and provides full coverage and more support. making it a good option to wear under tighter clothes. Again, just be aware that some experts advise against wearing underwire bras while nursing, but we know that sometimes you need that support during your nursing journey. 

"The nursing bra should be comfortable, feel supportive, cover your entire breast, and you should be able to undo the clasp easily with one hand," Rosenthal said. "Choose a soft fabric that will stretch with you, as breast size can change throughout the day as well. It shouldn't feel too tight, itchy or irritating." 

Shopping for a bra that fits right is tricky enough. Now try finding a nursing bra that works with your changing postpartum body -- one that makes it easy to reach your breasts while holding a crying newborn. Like almost everything in your life as a parent, it could take some trial and error before you find the right nursing bra for you. But once you've found the best one, it has the potential to make your days (and long nights) nursing much easier.

Launched in early 2021, Century is a newcomer to the baby gear game. A sister brand to Graco, Century offers easy-to-use products made from sustainable materials at an affordable price. Century's convertible car seat, the DriveOn Three-in-One, certainly meets that last criteria. Priced around $160, the DriveOn Three-in-One offers a lot of value for the money. 

Then you have convertible car seats, which can be used in rear- or forward-facing orientation and have weight ranges accommodating newborns all the way up to kindergartners. An all-in-one seat is a convertible seat with added functionality. Most turn into a high-back booster car seat, but others can be stripped down further to a backless booster for maximum service life.

Kindred Bravely maternity products aren't cheap, but in my experience they're worth the investment. This combo nursing and pumping bra was my go-to during an intense time of triple-feeding in order to increase my supply (for the uninitiated, that's a grueling process of nursing/pumping/hand-expressing all day and night). It's easy to throw on over your head without any clasps, and the hooks to access the layer for pumping and then nursing were easy to use -- a major benefit for nighttime feeding and nursing sessions. The pumping portion holds the flanges in place so you can pump hands-free. Despite the extra layer of fabric for pumping, this bra was more comfortable and less lumpy under my clothes than other pumping bras I tried. Kindred Bravely also offers a similar, non-sports bra option, the Sublime Hands-free Pumping & Nursing Bra. 

So when should you actually buy a nursing bra? Your breasts will often grow larger during pregnancy, but they'll change again once your milk comes in during the days after birth. That means the best time to buy nursing bras is when your baby is at least two weeks old, according to Chrisie Rosenthal, an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant with the Lactation Network, a company connecting families with free lactation consultations.
