I have difficulty finding even non-nursing bras to fit and am generally limited to two or three brands. Bella Materna has been the only nursing bra I've found to fit me properly. This bra has less stretch in the band than other bras, but gives a great shape. I think it also runs a little small. In other brands a 32 is a bit loose on me at the smallest hook, but in this brand, it's a little snug on the loosest hook. I also found that the size chart didn't work for me, but the company was great at exchanging until I found my right size (I ordered directly from the company's website). The chart said I should wear a 32D, but I'm actually a 32G, so there was a lot of exchanging before I got it right.

The lack of stretch makes it uncomfortable for lying down (though I did get used to it), but gives it great support, so it's a bit of a compromise--hence the 4-star rather than 5-star rating. The life of the bra is also good. They're lasting me about 1 year if I switch among two of them, which is really good for me.

I'd definitely recommend Bella Materna's products if you're a difficult-to-fit size. I also have tried the padded bra (runs even smaller in the band and is a little hard to nurse in) and the full-cup nursing gown (a little snug and a little hard to nurse in on the left side only), both of which look fabulous. I might have gone up a band-size in the gown if I were going to sleep in it, for comfort's sake.Buy Bella Materna Women's Full Cup Seamless Cup Nursing Bra #1361!

This is a great bra! When you're large busted support is a MUST and a good bra is hard enough to find let alone a good Nursing bra - but this bra is ideal! It's the most comfortable nursing bra I have and I'm ordering 3 more! I can wear it all day and not have any pain, even the shoulder straps are thick and cushioned.
The only negative thing about it is that the clasp is almost too easy to open. It's definitely a one handed clasp, but I've had it open several times just from having my purse strap press against it or touching it by accident. I've learned to work around it though and do not feel that it enough of a downside to make be not love this bra.
Overall comfort and support is superior and no seam show through clothes! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great bra you can wear all day with any type of shirt.Buy Seamless Underwire Nursing Bra!

The mythical and 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 Double Plus nursing bra!

I love the way this bra fits. The shoulder straps are soooooooo comfortable, the wire is well protected, the 3 rows of hooks are situated on a nice wide back strap. My problem stems from the lace cup design: 1) the lace covering shows through oxford shirts, turtle necks sweaters, and a variety of blouses; and 2) the lace doesn't lay flat and tends to pucker -- which presents a second kind of ugly "show through" problem. This would be my only bra IF it can in a single-ply smooth (no lace) cup.

I had visited the LLL website for size recommendation and per the chart it said I should order as size large or XL since I normally wear a size 36 or 34 DD.

I have two of this bra and I find them incredibly comfortable, they're not super formed and supportive (40G) but they're fantastic for me and baby.

This bra is super comfy, but not quite supportive enough for my DD girls. They didn't sit quite right. Might be nice as a sleep bra, but way to expensive to use it as a sleep bra. I sent it back.

I have just brought this bra and I only brought one as I am 35 weeks pregnant and was not sure which one to get. I have tried this one for a couple of days 44E and followed the recommendations to get a cup size bigger.
I think this bra is great, but we will have to see about the engorgement phase. I definately plan on getting some more.. but not sure if I need to get a cup size bigger for the engorgement phase. It is certainly very comfortable and fits great, with a little extra space, it will fit great when the milk comes in. I would recommend this product for the women who needs extra support, as I have none and havent had since I was 14 years old, so this bra is great for that.

This bra is so wonderful! It is very comfortable and looks great under my shirts. I have been wearing it the past two weeks and am not due for another week in a half. It is definitely what I would consider a good size bra if you have a little extra coming out of the top of your 34D bra's, yet it will definitely hold for the milk season, too.

I am a relatively small woman with naturally large breasts. As such I have never been able to wear a bra without an underwire. However, when I got pregnant and found my once comfortable C cups very full Ds, it became painful to sleep without a bra. I purchased this bra with the hopes to find relief while I slept from both the breast tenderness and the soreness associated with the underwire bras I was used to. It was heaven sent! I couldn't believe something as soft and gentle as a t-shirt could provide just the right amount of support to keep me contained but comfortable. I had to come back and order more! Buy Leading Lady Sleep Leisure Bra 110!

Very pretty bra, comes in beautiful colors, but could be a bit more supportive. Also, the band is very stretchy, so I had to get a smaller band size than usual.

This bra has really good support and super comfortable after some of the others that I tried. The only con is that the button version is hard to open with one hand. (there are two versions - the button snaps and the fastener type - and they dont offer you the option of choosing. My first bra was snaps and the second I ordered came with plastic fasteners)
My advice would be to go up a cup size for better comfort since there will be days of engorged breasts or sore nipples.Buy Bravado Basic nursing bra!

I am nursing twins and the extra milk produced makes a big difference. I never had a problem with blocked ducts with my singletons, but with the twins I was getting them all the time. They were very painful and of course would sometimes get infected. I tried sleep bras and lots of other bras by Medela as well as other brands, but all of them gave me blocked ducts by pressing on me at some point. Only this bra managed to give support without creating pressure points that caused blockages. Every now and then I wear one of the other bras, but every time I do it I get blockages. These bras also go in the washer and dryer. The only downside is that they cover a lot of area so will tend to show if you wear a v-neck or a wide neck shirt.Buy Medela Comfort Maternity Nursing Bra - Nude - Extra Large!

I have nursed two children, and owned many, many bras, and this has to be the best one. It is very supportive (34B), and has a smooth, uplifting look.

Buy Condessa "Veronica" Nursing Bra!

Being a 38J, there is little choice for a nursing bra. It is better than squeezing the girls into something too small but for the price I'd like to have felt like the shape was flattering as well. Instead the seam that runs along the front panel is positioned in a weird spot and makes the "quad-boob" look near the underarms. It is comfortable, but not very flattering in appearance. I will definately have to wear baggy shirts until I'm done nursing or until more flattering styles are made for my size.Buy Goddess Women's Comfort Zone Nursing Bra #GD2050!

I love that this bra comes in large cup sizes with smaller band sizes and is underwire - a surprisingly difficult combination to find. I also like that this bra isn't as expensive as others.

Unfortunately, this bra felt uncomfortable to me. I tried four sizes (32G, 32H, 34G, and 34H) and they were all a bit uncomfortable. The shoulder straps, which are fairly wide in the sizes I tried (maybe slightly wider than my thumb at the knuckle), scratched and dug into my skin enough to annoy me. Also, the fabric that rested under my arm pit rubbed a bit, irritating my skin in all four sizes I tried on (I took all four to a lactation consultant to help fit me).

I returned the Anita bras and tried the Bella Materna Seamless Full Cup Underwire Nursing Bra (#1361) in a 34G and it fits great (as long as I nurse/pump about every 4 hours; otherwise it gets snug with all that milk! - sure wish they made an 'H' size). The shoulder straps in the Bella Materna bra are soft (they don't dig or rub) and (once washed) there is no irritating fabric rubbing on my skin from any part of the bra - it's all very smooth and soft. I also use the Bravado Body Silk Seamless Nursing Bra (not underwire and yet looks nice and is surprising supportive - although not as good as underwire).

To hide nursing pads in my Bella Materna bras, I use the removable molded foam cups from my Bravado bras and stick my nursing pads to them and put them in my bra - they work great together! (I also tried the Bella Materna Lightly Padded Full Cup Bra (#1261), but the band seemed to be a bit tighter and I don't think the built-in padding allows much room to grow during the day - the Seemless Full Cup is better in my opinion. I ordered directly from the Bella Materna website and received wonderful customer service from 'Anne' and received free goodies with my order - a book, lullaby CD, and samples of organic laundry detergent for hand washing my bras - of course, I usually just put them in a pillow case in the washer on the 'gentle cycle' and then let them air dry.)

While I really wanted to love this Anita nursing bra, the fit wasn't for me. It felt awkward and uncomfortable. I'm sure there are plenty of moms who love this nursing bra, but I'm not one of them. I would recommend spending a little more on a Bella Materna Seamless Full Cup Underwire Nursing Bra (#1361) instead if you have a small band size, need a large cup size, and want underwire.Buy Anita Maternity Women's Microfiber Nursing Bra #5068!

I love these bras. My only mistake was buying them when I was ~36 weeks pregnant with my first. I was straddling 4 sizes (M, M+, L, and L+) and we decided to stick with the smallest because it really fit the best. Bad idea! As soon as I gave birth and my milk came in, these bras were so painful and tight!!! I ended up selling 6 M's, slightly used, on eBay. I kept one and wouldn't you know, it's now my favorite bra, over 2 years later, while pregnant with my 2nd (and still nursing the 1st!). Now the M is starting to get a little skimpy again so I'm buying a large or two to start with. I do recommend these -- they are supportive, comfortable (when they fit properly -- though I don't think anything would have been comfortable in my super-sore/engorged state!), and don't look half bad under clothes ;).

This is by far my favorite nursing bra. It fits me perfectly (38D nursing), and I disagree with the previous reviewer that claimed the sizing was non-standard. This is the same size I wear with other brands. I found this bra extremely comfortable, with adequate support, and it looks good too. The nursing flaps are easily opened with one hand. I can't speak to the durability because i haven't owned it long, but it appears to be well made. Cups are not thick enough to completely hide breast pad lumps, nonetheless the look of this bra is superior to any other nursing bra i've tried. I'll be buying several more of these.Buy Bravado Lifestyle Microfiber Nursing Bra!

This bra was not a functional nursing bra. The cotton is too stiff and it needs flexibility in the material to be effective. Buy BirthandBaby Sleep Bra!

These bras run a little small, and they are very tight when you first get them (like pantyhose). So order a bigger size than you think you need. Also, I'm not crazy about the straps. They show at the neck even under tshirts, and they sit right on your shoulder muscle. I always seem to get a headache when I wear it, and I think it is from the constant pressing on that muscle. Why three stars? I think if I had gotten a larger size, then the muscle problem would not have been so bad. And it is pretty comfortable and very easy to nurse from. I sure wish I could have traded it out with a bigger size to see.Buy Medela Comfort Maternity Nursing Bra - White - Large!

I live this bra! This is the best for nursing at night- or just if you want a little support while sleeping. I bought 2 of these for over 1 year ago. Both have proven to be very durable, comfortable and just the right amount of support.Buy Medela Nightime Nursing Sleep Bra!

To start, I wear a 36G (in non-nursing sizes, so in this bra I'd wear a 36H). My size is VERY hard to find. I usually end up compromising with a 38DDD or a 40DDD. I thought I'd try this bra because they had a 36H.

Its itchy, definitely not cotton. Its very tight, which is very bad if you are breastfeeding! The 36 part fits me great but the cup is tight and feels terrible on me. It is very supportive, yes, but maybe a little too much so. It reminds me of wearing a minimizer. The seams in the cup are irritating. The band around the sides/back is pretty wide, feels like its in my armpits. The straps are wide but the wide part does not sit on my shoulders, the pressure spot is on the thin part of the strap and its very uncomfortable.

In summary, this bra works as a bra, is supportive, but is very uncomfortable for me. Buy Bravado! The Supreme Nursing Bra!

I hate bras. They either flatten me down, are incredibly itchy or make my back ache. This one doesn't flatten and is so comfortable, I actually forget it is on.
The nursing functionality on this one isn't the best. The only thing holding the bra strap is a flimsy piece of elastic. But it is so wonderful to have something that doesn't make me want to scratch my skin off. Buy Bravado Body Silk Seamless Maternity/Nursing Bra!

This is a very comfortable sleeping bra, super easy to unlatch with one hand.

After an exhaustive search, I have concluded that this is the best nursing bra out there for me. It fits all of my requirements: it is sexy, supportive, has no underwire, comes in black, and isn't terribly expensive. The only problem? I was a 32DD before I got pregnant and 4 months after giving birth, I am a 34G. It doesn't come in my size! Elle, if you're reading this, PLEASE consider manufacturing a G cup for those of us with small bands and large busts! For the record, here is my feedback on some similar items. Keep in mind this might not apply to smaller cup sizes:

-Melinda G Glorious Contour: Sexy, cute, pretty supportive, but get the right cup size or your boobs will "marshmallow" over the deeply plunging cups.
-Bravado Sugar & Spice Micorfiber: Really pretty, but totally unsupportive
-Bravado Exquisite: Looks nothing like the photos, hideous colors! Support was pretty good, though.
-Freya Rosalie: A little bit school-marmy for my taste, and flimsy material might not last
-Anita softcup 5062: Fairly supportive but not incredibly sexy; don't wear every day or it will stretch.
-Gilligan & O'Malley Nursing Sleep Bra: I got this in 38D just for sleeping and it is unsupportive but better than nothing

Hope this helps! I wish bra manufacturers would realize that those of us with large busts want to look sexy, too! Breastfeeding isn't the *only* reason we shop for new bras.

I've had this bra now for about a month and so far it's working out well. Seems to be good quality and as comfortable as you'll probably get at this point. My only complaint is that they seem to run on the small side--I'd say about 2 sizes too small. If you can find a store that sells these bras, I'd highly recommend trying them on. Then ordering through Amazon since it's so much cheaper. I ended up having to pay almost $30 for ground shipping through FedEx to send back the 2 that I originally bought.Buy Anita Maternity Women's Underwire Nursing Bra #5035!
