BFing moms - what bras?

I do not fit into my bras so I have been living in bra top camis. I tried to buy new bras. I was a 34B but now I tried on a 36C, I THINK it fits but it is SO uncomfortable. I don't know if this is b/c I am BFing OR maybe b/c I haven't worn a real bra in over six weeks. I even tried on a 38D and THAT was uncomfortable. . .

So, what do you wear? Doesn't have to be a nursing bra since I don't nurse in public. Are you able to wear underwire bras?

Thanks!

Re: BFing moms - what bras?

I really like the nursing bras from Target. I think they are gillian o'malley or something like that. I have two underwire and two without wire and they are both really comfortable. I'm just pumping now but I still wear the nursing bra's b/c my other bras don't fit anymore.

I didn't nurse in public either, but I still lived in my nursing bras- they were just more comfortable. They weren't as supportive but to be honest I don't know how any regular bra would have been comfortable.

I live in the bravado seamless silk nursing bras. They are so comfy! I have four of them. I also have two medela sleep bras, but I am not that big a fan. I would avoid a wire, it can cause you to get clogged milk ducts.

I agree they are very cheap and very comfy!!! So much better than the $$ I got at Destination Maternity!

I love these bravado bras. They are the best and I wear them almost everyday. All my bras are wireless too.

Re: BFing moms - what bras?

I lived in my Anita nursing bras... they have them at Nordstrom and they sell them on Bare Necessities. I strated off a little bigger with a 34D pre-pregency, so I really need a good bra with support. But I really loved these bras.

Re: BFing moms - what bras?

I like the wire free ones by leading lady, I am a 38d now so I needed some support, it seems to give me a decent amount with no wire.

I love these bras too. I'm not nursing anymore, but still find them to be the most comfy and supportive at the same time.

They just cover up too much, not great for lowcut tops.

But my guess, is that you probably need to get measured, you will be shocked how much better any bra feels when its the right size.

I would avoid a wire, it can cause you to get clogged milk ducts.



I actually loved a "Barely There" convertible bra that had snaps for the straps in the front of the bra which made nursing easy. I just saw a very similar type of bra at target the other day.

Me too! I loved the Bravado Seamless nursing bras. They are expensive, but so worth it. I lived in them for a year when I was nursing and plan on living in them again when I have this on. I am going to get new ones for this baby.
