For Dr. Gloria Bachmann, an OB-GYN and the director of the Women's Health Institute at Rutgers University, the rule to follow is the same one she advises all pregnant people stick to, no matter the health concern or question: check with your doctor (or midwife, practitioner or other care provider). This is important not only before you consume a new medication, according to Bachmann, but also to make sure you don't write off a more serious illness as a common cold, allergies or even a mild case of COVID-19. 

With allergy season approaching, and COVID-19 still here, many people are reaching for over-the-counter medication in the hopes of relieving congestion or getting through a cough. What about one of the most popular ones, Mucinex?

How we tested nursing bras  I had a baby in October 2021, and cycled through these bras for three months as I nursed, pumped and eventually combination-fed. I was a size 36C before pregnancy, and a 36D toward the end and after. 

Emma Kenny, who specialises in victimology, appeared on This Morning today to speak to Philip Schofield and Alison Hammond ahead of her new show 'The Serial Killer Next Door' where she discusses how to spot traits of serial killers and what they look for in victims.

The expert explained that the odds of you being murdered by a serial killer is 0.00039 per cent and that 'all serial killers are born psychopaths' but a mix of early trauma is what makes them deadly murders.

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.

The best way to figure out your size is to go to a maternity store and have an employee size you in person, Rosenthal said. If you can't do that, you can take your own measurements with a measuring tape at home. Most sellers provide a size chart to help you out. But a general rule of thumb is to take your pregnancy bra size, then add one cup size and subtract one back size, Rosenthal said.

This bralette from Target's Auden collection is simple, comfy and affordable. It's great for everyday wear toward the end of pregnancy and also in the early days when you're mostly at home nursing. There are no clasps or snaps, and you can easily access your breast and stick it back in as needed. It also works as a regular bra under clothes. It's slightly more supportive than other bralettes I've tried, but as some have noted in the online reviews, this isn't the best choice for larger-chested people who need a more structured option. It would also make a good option for a bra to wear while sleeping. Added bonus: It comes in a two pack. 

The 37-year-old also revealed how she has personally seen the disastrous effects such procedures can have when they go wrong, including the case of one 15-year-old girl who had fillers and ‘her lips blew up'.

Rosenthal recommends buying two to three high-quality nursing bras that you really like. You may need to replace them after a few months if the fabric stops feeling supportive or if your breast size significantly changes. 

Psychopaths display different traits depending on their disorder, but common signs include superficial charm, a grandiose notion of self-worth, the need for stimulation and impulsiveness, pathological lying, the ability to manipulate others and a lack of remorse and empathy.

This Auden bra offers a great combination of comfort and support -- not as much as a full coverage option but certainly more than a bralette. I'd describe it as a cross between a sports bra and a traditional bra, with a stretchier fabric and removable padding. This was my go-to bra in the later months of pregnancy when I wanted to be comfortable, but still have something with enough support to wear out in public. It was also easy to access for nursing once the baby arrived. Because it's one of Target's lines, it's also a more affordable option. 

The Conservative MP for Sevenoaks - who has been working with Culture Secretary Nadine Dorries on the dangers of social media in the Online Safety Bill - has already successfully introduced a private member's Bill to ban cosmetic Botox and fillers for under-18s.
