  • Patent number: 5092812
    Abstract: An automatic nursing sequence indicator bra that indicates to a nursing mother alternating between two breasts for feeding an infant which breast is to be used next in turn. In the preferred embodiment the nursing sequence indicators are integral parts of the bra cups themselves in the form of two flaps, each a part of the two bra cups. The flaps are inwardly disposed between the two cups with one at least partially covering the other when both bra cups are closed. The flap of the cup opened last for nursing lies so that it at least partially covers the flap of the other cup. The top flap therefore points to the next breast to be used in turn. In a second embodiment, the flaps are added as separate parts to the bra cups. In the preferred and second embodiments the flaps may be stiffened with additional material for flap alignment. The shape of the flaps, and decorations or slogans may aid their intended function.
