Product Description

LACE TRIMMED CLIP DOWN UNDERWIRE FULL SUPPORT DEMI NYLON / SPANDEX NURSING BRA HAND WASH IMPORTED


Customer Review:


I was skeptical about this bra, especially because it is underwire but I wanted something that felt a little sexier than the nursing bras I had already purchased and wanted some good support. This bra is so comfy, I can't even feel the underwires. I have only washed it once so far so I don't know how well it holds up, but I have ordered 2 more because they are so easy to work the clasps and the cup is lightly lined but so easy to move out of the way. This bra is fantastic and I can only hope it holds its shape and support. I love it!

Customer Review:


I am a bigger busted girl (38D/E while nursing) and I love this bra. I really didn't think I'd find anything without a wire that would be supportive enough, but this really looks just like a regular bra, gives good shape and is very comfortable.

Lamaze Cotton Spandex Sleep Bra for Nursing and Maternity


Price: $18.00


Product Description

The Lamaze Sleep Bra can be used while you are pregnant as well as after as a Nursing Bra. This bra is very soft and comfortable and will offer you support while you sleep. Very convenient for mid night nursing sessions.


Customer Review:


This bra is very soft and comfy! No worries about underwire digging in, especially when breastfeeding. Don't let the spandex scare you off - there is just enough to make it stretch, but not enough to make you look like you are wearing a 1980's retro piece. I like that I can just pull the cup back without snaps, latches, or hooks and breastfeed with ease. My only issue is that sometimes the cups seem to shift on me a bit, which makes "containment" an issue, but that could just be because I ordered a bigger size than usual because my breast size changes daily :) Great product at a great price!

Bravado! The Essential Nursing Bra Tank Daywear


Price: $44.10 - $50.00


Product Description

Bravado! Style 710. Nursing bra tank top. Constructed of stretch cotton. Built-in molded, seamless bra for support and shape. CottonFlex lining for flexible comfort. Hip-length tank with slight flare retains shape. Convenient one handed nursing clips. Cushioned, adjustable straps. Specifically designed for expectant and nursing mothers.


Customer Review:


I am a review-a-holic and read everything I could before my purchase of this tank top. I am always very self-conscious of the size of my chest while nursing (right now a 36 DD) and I am always at a lost when it's time to get dressed. What can I wear, be comfortable in, bend over and deal with a potty training-running around crazy-three year old boy, feel cute it, and nurse in...ahhhhh! Anyways, I am very pleased with the tank top. The fabic is great and even with my larger-than life nursing nipples I feel comfortable and supported! I like the fact that it offers so much support but doesn't hug my post-pregnancy pouch and doesn't create those lovely back-fat lines that are so depressing (haha). Anyways I would have given it 5-stars but I do wear a little under bra-thingy to help cover my cleavage. It's basically impossible not to have the stuff though unless I wear a turtle neck...I don't believe it would bother anyone else unless you too are very uncomfortable with cleavage (most women love it). It is worth the price (and I'm a DAVE RAMSEY bugetting queen!).

Medela Womens Sleep Nursing Bra - Nude


Price: $18.95 - $22.99


Product Description

Customer Review:


This bra is very easy to use for night feedings, and is super comfortable to sleep in. It isn't meant to be super supportive, so I wouldn't plan on for wearing it during the day. It has held up great being used and worn almost nightly for seven months with countless washes so far. The XL size fits a size 36-38 D very well.

This sizing system also makes this bra ideal for baby shower gifts, new mom gifts, and gift registries; since you can easily guess her size (if you don't know her bra size, choose the size she'd wear in a top, and if she's in between; choose the larger size).


Customer Review:


OMG, this bra is amazing. I found this bra early in my 3rd trimester, and all the upper back pain (a result of heavy breasts and bras that didn't fit well) went away. VERY supportive, non-shifty, and stretchy enough to work for a growing chest. Also, attractive and low-cut, so you can wear it under real clothes, not just high-necked ones! I haven't yet used this as a nursing bra, so I can't speak to the convenience of the clips, but the bra itself is incredible as a maternity bra... or, just as a regular one. Bravado's size chart on their website is pretty true-to-size. I'm about a 38 E or F now, and size L fits well on the second-to-loosest hook but not any tighter. If you're at 40 band, I might suggest going for the XL.

An update: I've been nursing my son for 5 months now. After about the first month, I had to go up to an XL (about a 38 F/G now), on the tightest hook. These hold up great in the wash, and the clips work really well. These are supportive enough for the daytime and comfortable enough to sleep in. They look great under a t-shirt or a dress. Basically, I like these bras enough that I think I'm going to continue wearing them even after I'm done nursing (even though my size may shrink down again... I'm willing to spend the money for a good bra).

Medela Sleep Nursing Bra - White


Price: $15.99 - $49.95


Product Description

Customer Review:


The Medela Sleep Bra is by far the most comfortable sleep bra I have purchased and I have purchased many. Unfortunately it is difficult to know what will work best for you without trying every nursing bra out there.

The back is in an easy to wear racerback style with no clasps to mess with or lay on uncomfortably at night when you are trying to sleep. You just pull it over your head to put it on. The cups are draw back style so when you are up in the middle of the night to nurse your little one you don't have to fuss with clasps.

As some reviewers have mentioned, the fabric is thin, but I like that feature of this bra. It is 95% cotton with 5% spandex for that stretch we all need at times. You can put nursing pads in the cups, but I find them uncomfortable so I prefer to go without. If I get a little leakage during the night, it dries fairly quickly.

The sizing is on the small side, so if you are on a border size, I would order up. I'm a 38B and purchased the Medium at first. This one seemed too small. I exchanged for a Large and I'm much happier. In fact, I would say it is perfect. The manufacturers sizing chart isn't currently available on this page so I'll list it here.

32-34 A, B, & C = Small
36-38B, 36C, 32-34D, 34DD = Medium
40B, 3-40C, 36-38D, 36DD = Large
42B, 42C, 40D, 38-40DD = Extra Large

Customer Review:


When I bought this bra online I was a little worried about the fit. I ordered a M for size 36D. Right now that bra fits perfect and I love it. It's very comfortable, supportive and it seems to be made of good quality. Right now I'm only nursing a toddler but my baby will be born in the next two weeks and my milk production will be increasing by a lot. I have rib band set on the last hook (biggest size )and I am afraid that it might not fit as good after baby comes (but I will be loosing weight, so hopefully it will fit even better). The only problem I have is that after wearing it all day, the rib band left red marks on my skin. However I didn't feel any discomfort at all. Overall it's a great bra and I glad that I bought it.

Here are the sizes off of the packaging:

rib band---cup size
-----------B C D E(DD) F(DDD)
32---------S S S S M
34---------S S M M M
36---------S M M L L
38---------M M M L L
40---------M M L L XL
42---------L L L XL XL
44---------L L L XL XL
46---------L XL XL XL XL
