Weird bra question for girls who pump only...

do you wear a nursing bra or a regular one? I have been wearing nursing bras, but they just don't hold me up, so I went out and bought some regular ones yesterday. Is that ok? I am afraid because it's not stretchy that it will hurt when my bbs get bigger throughout the day. Although the bra is a little loose after I pump. I was just so sick of not having a figureChat Icon

I wore my regular bras all the time and just pulled the strap down. I hated how you could see all the lines through shirts on my nursingbras -- they just weren't smooth.

It's just so hard to find a good quality nursing bra that doesn't cost 60 bucks. Call me cheap, but I'm not spending 60 bucks on a bra that probably won't hold me up all that well, anyway.

Same here. It was also hard to find them in colors other than white.

Sorry to go off topic, but do you fit into your regular bras or did you buy new, bigger ones??

Re: Weird bra question for girls who pump only...

I wear nursing ones. I found a style on jcpenney.com made by Leading Lady that I really like. It has soft "formed" cups so I always have a nice shape. Also, the outside is a nylon-like material so all of my clothes fall nicely over it. I never liked the cotton ones, as they would stretch out, and cotton shirts over them always "stuck" to my boobs. Also, I always feel more comfortable in an underwire. The nursing bras are just easier when it is time to pump. I have also tried a couple of regular front-close bras that are just as good.

ETA: here is the link. I have both styles and like both of them. The price is pretty good too!
