I am a small framed woman with a larger chest (32D - 32DD). I have a difficult time finding bras in my size that are supportive and that have adjustable straps (not the 1/2 adjustable straps like some bras have) since I am also shorter and the fully adjustable straps help keep my chest higher. This bra works perfectly. It is extremely supportive and has fits great. It is also great because it works well as a t-shirt bra and a few times when I have had milk leak without breast pads, the bras padding helped me out! I should be a 32D but the 34D works great for me. I would highly recommend this to any nursing mom.Buy Leading Lady 410 Nursing Bra!

I've tried a ton of nursing bras, and I really like this one for ease of use as well as support. I'm a 36DD and the fit is really supportive and flattering for a non-underwire. I give 4 stars instead of 5 because I think these are sized on the small size. There should be one size larger than mine (I got the 36 E/F size) and I doubt it would really fit anyone larger than me, since it *just* fits me. The cups could be a touch larger, but overall I'm really pleased. So pleased, in fact, that I just ordered another one!Buy Bella Materna Anytime Nursing Bra!
I loved my Supreme Nursing bra from Bravado. I decided to try the Exquisite Nursing Bra when I had my second child. I bought two of the bras at full price ($65.00) and within two months the snap closure stopped working on one of the bras. I e-mailed the company and they nicely sent me a replacement. Well over the next two - four months the replacement and other original bra's snap closure also broke. I now have three of these bras that are useless. Unless you want a bra with a 2-3 month shelf life I would scrap this model. Buy Bravado The Exquisite Nursing Bra Style 130!
I was looking for a comfortable and attractive nursing bra in a large size (I'm a 38E! Yikes!) and I have found it!!! This bra is very comfortable, attractive, and so worth the extra money! Most bras (nursing or not) for larger breasted women are matronly and make you feel like you're wearing body armor. But this bra is great! I'd even recommend it to non-nursing larger breasted women. I was nervous ordering bras online, but this one has exceeded my expectations. The underwire is soft enough that when I fold the cup down to nurse, it does not dig into my ribcage like so many other nursing bras with underwires, but still provides comfortable support. The little 'memo' tab to mark which side to nurse from next is really helpful as well. I'm very happy with this bra, I even bought two (in black and skin), and if they had it in my size in white I'd buy another! :DBuy Anita Microfiber Underwire Nursing Bra Style 5041!

I ordered 3 Glamourmom tanks 08/28/07. By December, the stitching came off the clasp, leaving the tank unusable. I wrote to Glamourmom 01/06/08 and received instructions on how to return it for a replacement. The replacement arrived a few weeks later. By March, the stitching came off the bottom hem of another tank, and again I returned it for a replacement. Despite contacting Glamourmom on more than one occasion, I have still not received a replacement, one year after it failed. They claim they have no record of the second tank and refuse to assist me in getting it replaced. I certainly won't recommend them to anyone!Buy Nursing Bra Tank Top in 7 Colors!

The ever-elusive perfect nursing bra has been found!! Here's my story... My daughter nursed for two years, and I searched that entire time for a decent nursing bra, to no avail. I tried dozens of styles and brands, from cheap to triple-digits in price, and found nothing that kept its fit and support for more than a few weeks. It was so frustrating! Then, when I was expecting my son, I went to a specialty bra shop for a fitting and a few recommendations, and discovered this bra. I am amazed!! I got this bra figuring the stretchy cups would get me through the last month of my pregnancy and then the early weeks of fluctuating cup sizes while my milk came in and got regulated. I figured by the time that was done, this bra would be worn out and end up in the trash like all the rest. Well, I was wrong!! This bra has seen me through all of that, and continued to perform like a champ, even though I have had it for almost ten months now. That's right, I said, ten months! I bought three different types of nursing bras when I got this one, and this is the only one that survived this long (the Bravado Supreme lasted over 7 months, which is also impressive). Despite being machine washed and dried almost daily, this bra has continued to fit just as well as it did when it was new, and it is just a comfortable and supportive. Even though I am not a big fan of the "uniboob" styling, I am convinced that this is the best nursing bra out there. I wish I had known about this one when my daughter was nursing! And for the price... well, this bra just can't be beat. When I wear a top that really requires something other than the "uniboob" look, I wear my Bravado Supreme. Otherwise, I just about live in this one. I wear it every night, and most days too. I would recommend this bra wholeheartedly and without hesitation to any woman with a full bust (I am a 38G). In fact, I already have recommended it to a friend, and she loves hers just as much as I love mine!Buy Bravado Maternity : Double Plus Nursing Bra - (See More Colors)!
I love this bra. It is very comfy, and gives me lots of support. I am a cup size E, and this bra is amazing. I was surprised that it doesn't have hooks. It is all one piece like a sports bra. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is it is hard to clip the cup back up. You definately need two hands for it. This bra gives me the support I need and the comfort that I want.Buy Bravado Maternity : Plus Original Nursing Bra - White!
I love this gown...it's a bit pricey, but well worth it! The fabric and fit is great and it was really convenient to wear at home the first few months of nursing. The built-in bra is very supportive as well. Love the fit...in fact, I'm tempted to wear this as a "little black dress" after I'm done nursing. Buy Bella Materna Women's Anytime Nursing Gown #3151!

If you buy this item or plan on buying it, make sure you see how it's unhooked before you nurse. I just snapped it apart without looking at what I was doing and now I can't figure out how to get it back together.

These bras are simply the best nursing bras I have ever owned! They are comfortable, durable and easy to work; a real plus when you have so much else to think about.
I have used this company in the past for nursing clothes and swimwear and am thrilled that I can order through Amazon. Breast-is-best has always handled my orders promptly and has given good advice and excellent customer service. I can't say enough about this amazing woman-owned company.Buy Mama's Best Nursing/Maternity Bra!
THis bra is pretty disappointing. I purchased it because it was the only affordable nursing bra I could find in my size, 32 G. The band size runs large, the cup size is definitely small. It is comfortable, but it doesn't give my bust nearly enough support to feel good wearing it out of the house. Buy Fancee Free Seamless Soft Cup Nursing Bra Style 94366!
I had high hopes for this bra after trying the Goddess 511. What a disappointment! This bra is nothing at all like the 511 and I won't buy another one ever. The little designs are silly and my baby could care less about them. I suggest making *eye contact* with your baby while nursing instead. Perhaps someone thought the little designs would make up for the fact that this bra offers NO SUPPORT at all and gives your bust a really homely, droopy profile. The bra is decently-made, as are all the Goddess bras I've tried. And as a plus, it does have an easier to use clasp on the drop cups than the 511 model. But nothing makes up for the lack of support and the unflattering shaping of this bra. It's only a few dollars more for the 511. I'd suggest buying it instead.

I bought this bra hoping it would hold up the girls.....and sadly, it really doesn't. The photo made it look like a great bra and the reviews I read made it sound good too. I was a 32 D before having a baby and now am a 34 DD/34 E. I've found much more support with an front closure sports bra which makes it a great nursing bra.

I expected La Leche League to make a bra that is comfortable and supportive for the nursing mother. I really wanted to find a strapless bra that is nursing friendly and is supportive (when you nurse you can't wear bras with under wires as they can clog the milk ducts). Anyways, I had to keep pulling it up which is embarrassing. Also, those stupid round pads that are there to cover up the nursing openings are the most difficult things to keep in place. I am very disappointed that I spent money on this braBuy La Leche League Padded Seamless Strapless Nursing Tube Bra #4206!
I did not like this bra. Here are some facts to help you decide.
1) I'm 25, and a 42 D
2) This bra is "rocket shaped". If you want to look like a sweater girl from 1958 this is for you. If you want a more modern "natural" look this won't work if you'are bigger.
3) This bra is unlined. It's just one layer. This causes 2 problems- nipple issues and comfort. The seam is running directly across your breast.
It wasn't for me, but maybe you don't have sensitive skin, are never cold, and like the rocket look. Buy Playtex Women's Secrets Signature Floral Underwire Bra #4422!

I bought this bra because my size is hard to find: 34DDD and out of my three nursing bras this is my favorite one only because it fit me perfect! The bonus is the beautiful lace. It may be uncomforable with your nipples but thats when you can using the nursing pads. It also has three "hook and eye" on both sides in the front to open and close and to find which level best fits you. Because there are three "hook and eye" in the bacl, my love handles don't pop out.Buy Lunaire Speciality nursing bra!

I find the glamourmom tank top very useful, because it has the power to turn almost any outfit into a nursing-friendly one. It makes for very discreet nursing because your stomach & some of your boob is covered by the tank, and then you hanve your own shirt over it which covers you above the baby.
The tanks run tight and are stretchy, which are great consider they are serving as underwear/undershirt. Elastic helps hold in all the remaining postpartum pudge.
Only downside is that wearing two shirts is way to hot for nursing in the summertime. The tank is not cotton and can be sweaty on a sunny day, esp with 2 layers on.
The tank CANNOT be worn on its own. The cutouts around the nipples are very much on display.Buy GlamourMom Nursing Bra Tank!
I love these tops! I bought three of these after returning the "komfy kangaroo" version of the this at a cheaper price. The lack of spandex in them made them fit too lose. These tops are great because of the stretch. I prefer the version that is the "top"(bra type strap) rather than the "tank" (cloth spaghetti strap).
About the size. I bought these when my milk supply was just regulating and the medium felt too small. I was tired of returns from the other company, so I kept these a few days with the intent of returning. I did not need too; once my supply regulated the medium was perfect!
How to wear it: I was fitted in these tops at a lactation support store and was so glad I did (I bought online because they were cheaper though). She suggested I step into the top like you would a swimsuit to protect tender nipples. Once you have it pulled up, lift the outer top to reveal the shelf bra under. Lean forward as though you are going to touch your toes and make sure the 1 inch elastic band is flush with ribs and not on breasts. Stand up and adjust your breast from the top by lifting each breast up and settling them in to align with the nipple cut outs. Adjust the straps to support the breast firmly, but not tight. It is meant to be firm, not tight.
I wear my tops everyday and have had them for 3 months. They wash well and are great for sleeping. They are great alone or instead of bra with other tops. I wear "Lily Padz" nursing pads and because they are thin silicone, they do not show under these tops.
I wish they were cheaper, but after failures with other tops and frequency of nursing, they are worth it. I am actually online now to buy 2 more.
Good luck with your breast-feeding.Buy Glamourmom Lace Nursing Bra top - S-XXL!

I purchased this nursing bra because it was nude and looked like it would be discreet nursing bra (like those coney ones). This bra was very expensive and it was not all comfortable.

The tank is great except that the sizes run really small. I am a 38C and I should have gone with a size large.
The tank is great because it hides your tummy. It's versatile and can be worn under other tops. The snaps make it easy to take on and off and this is important when your baby is crying to be fed.

I bought this bra on 12/15 after seeing it in a magazine. It arrived on 12/17 and was everything I had imagined and more. It's very pretty, soft, and wireless! I didnt think the cup size (D) would fit, since Im a large D, but after trying it on I was pleasantly surprised. It has stretch so it can accomodate my heavy chest, and it also lifts and separates. Im 6 months pregnant now, and I plan on buying 3 more after the baby is born. I would wear these regardless of being a mom, they are completely comfortable and its not easy finding a sexy wireless bra with support that fits all sizes.

I honestly would wear these 24/7 if I could get away with it. After my c-section they were incredibly comfortable, and I am even wearing them now through my 2nd pregnancy. The fabric is amazingly soft and stretchy, the nursing top is easy to use, and they look great even if you have a bit of extra "baby weight" to shed still! Buy Aimee Gowns Bra-less Nursing Pajamas!
I'm quite happy with this bra. I bought both this and the Platex underwire nursing bra, both in 38D, and the Platex was way oversized. This one is perfect as it would stretch even if you're a bit bigger or smaller. After all, who really is a perfect 36c or 38D or whatever. Everyone is probably in between sizes, especially while nursing.
The only reason I didn't give this bra 5 stars is that the band at the bottom folds and can get slightly uncomfortable. But the material feels worlds better than the Platex bra.
I don't think this bra can be doubled as an exercise bra. Buy a decent, real sports bra for that. But nursing, both as a sleep bra, and as a regular wearable one is definitely fine.

Great Product, Like Playtex usually offers, this particular model was a bit smaller than my usual Playtex brand in the 42C size, but still fits good and has excellant support!Buy Playtex. 18 Hour seamless comfortflex bra!
I tried many different styles of nursing bras trying to find one that was supportive enough for me. I'm a dificult size to find because I have a small band size and large cup size. This bra has plenty of support. It's very comfortable to wear. Yes, this bra does make my breasts look a bit more pointy than others, but It's not unflattering. Actually, I like the way this bra looks under my shirts--it's very good for avoiding sagging. The seams don't show very much under shirts, either. There are some prettier nursing bras available out there, but the support can't even compare with this bra. I would much rather have the support I need than have a pretty bra--good support makes my figure look good no matter what I'm wearing over the bra!
The cups are a bit high under the arms, but I only noticed it the first couple of times I put the bra on. After that I got used to it, and I didn't even notice it. The latch on the cups is easy to open and close with one hand. The straps are also a bit wider than most, so they don't dig in at the shoulders. (I'm not usually a fan of wide straps, but these ones aren't so bad.) I love that it is available in the nude color, as well.Buy Freya Rosalie nursing bra!
