Condessa "Cassandra" Smooth Cup Nursing Bra


Price: $35.00


Product Description

The Condessa Cassandra Brassiere provides nursing access in a beautiful and feminine design. The Cassandra provides separate cups for the feel and look of a brassiere rather than a box effect. A molded microfiber cup provides a smooth appearance and comfort. Pearl snaps add sparkle. Bras strap and back wings are appealing in size for all cups. Available matching pantie for a beautiful Condessa lingerie set.


Customer Review:


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. There is wire/bonning on the sides (under your armpit) and the boning/wire would constantly dig into my rib cage...it was very uncomfortable. I much preferred the Elle McPherson Maternelle bra.

Gilligan & O’Malley® Womens Nursing Soft Cup Bra - True White


Price: $12.99


Product Description

Customer Review:


After having plenty of experience with awful nursing bras in the past, I thought I would do some research here since there are no longer any retail locations in our town that carry nursing bras. After reading all the reviews on this bra and several others, I thought I'd give this one a shot, especially since I love all my regular bras from Gilligan & O'Malley.

This bra has the worst shape and support of any I've ever had. It points the girls off to each side and also cuts into them just enough to give that double-mound appearance. Also, the panels that allow access for feeding are really stiff and don't move out of the way very easily. This makes things difficult and awkward at best.

My advice, especially if you're on the larger side like me, don't waste your money on this "bra".

Condessa "Cassandra" Lace Nursing Bra - Seductive Sunset


Price: $40.00


Product Description

The Condessa Cassandra Nursing Bra provides nursing access in a beautiful and feminine design. This nursing bra provides separate cups for the feel and look of a brassiere rather than the look of a sports bra. Soft Stretch lace with cotton lining on 1/2 the cup for breastfeeding comfort. Pearl snaps add sparkle and disguise the nursing access. The bra strap and back wings on this nursing bra are appealing in size - for all cups. Available matching pantie for a beautiful Condessa lingerie set.


Customer Review:


It's difficult to find bras that open from the center and I love this one. I ordered one cup size bigger than what I was before milk and (c to d) and could maybe do a double d but I'm going to order another one because I like it so much - I don't even mind wearing it to bed.

Condessa "Veronica" Nursing Bra - Treasured Copper


Price: $40.00


Product Description

This under-wire nursing bra in shimmering microfiber with a seamless cup gives this nursing bra a modern and glamorous look and feel. The demi-cup with under-wire gives a daring and sexy lift while allowing for breastfeeding access at the strap. Available matching pantie for a beautiful Condessa lingerie set.


Customer Review:


I wear a 36C and this fits perfectly. I nurse my 8-month old with it. I've been wearing it for a few days on the loosest hook and it is snug enough. Easy one-handed opening and closing. But the best thing is that it is so beautiful; finally an attractive nursing bra! The color is a beautiful copper. The straps are shimmery, I wouldn't be embarrassed if the straps showed. So far, nice and snug and comfortable. No padding, but lined. It is low cut as it shows in the photo. If you like full coverage, you may feel a little exposed in this bra. My husband loves it. I love the way it makes me feel -- no more bandaid-beige matronly nursing bras for me!

PumpEase Hands Free Pumping Support for Medela Breast Pump


Price: $34.20 - $40.00


Product Description

How do you use your PumpEase hands-free pumping support? Wrap PumpEase hands-free pumping support around your chest and fasten in the front over your nursing bra, nursing top (lower panels first) or over nothing at all. Insert the breast pump horns into the openings, centering over your nipples and start pumping. You will enjoy having both hands free for checking email, taking phone calls, banking online, writing thank you cards or tending to baby - all while pumping! Why do you need a PumpEase hands-free pumping support? 1. you would like to multi-task (do other things while pumping). 2. you are returning to work. 3. you want to donate to a Milk Bank. 4. you are adopting and want to induce lactation. 5. you need relief from frequent painful engorgement. 6. your baby has a medical condition, such as a cleft palate or tongue-tie. 7. your baby was born premature and is still in the hospital. 8. you have mastitis, milk stasis, a blocked duct or thrush. 9. you need to maintain your milk supply during a lapse in breastfeeding (e.g. travel, medication, hospitalization) your baby does not completely empty your breasts (tongue-tie, ineffective suck, latching problems). 10. you want the freedom to be able to leave your baby with your partner or caregiver for a feeding. 11. your partner wants to feed, and therefore bond with, your baby. 12. you need to boost your milk production. 13. you have flat or inverted nipples (pumping can be helpful at drawing out the nipple). 14. you gave birth to multiples.


Customer Review:


I am so glad I chose this handsfree assistant-- I wear it at my waistline (under my shirt) then slide it into place when its time to pump. I only have about 15-20 minutes to pump at work, so ease of use to maximize my pumping time is crucial. The sizing charts on the pumpease site are pretty accurate. The band is very adjustable with five rows of eyelet hooks. I'm amazed at how much milk I can collect hands free-- its well worth it!

Customer Review:


Well, the size chart is clearly useless, but I thought I'd try out an XL for my 44DD's (The size chart is not in terms of S, M, L, XL). The XL might fit a 36-38 band size, but no larger. Also, there is no stretch to the fabric, and the lacy edges would certainly show under any shirt. Not for me. I like the Bravado, and Carriwell brands for big boobed ladies who want comfort, support, and a smooth profile.

Customer Review:


Since not everyone is created equal, IF these bras fit you, they will possibly be the best ones you've ever owned by far, very comfortable and great workmanship. For me they fit true to size as with non-nursing bras. Some of the features I love is the chunky hook and snap closure on the top of each cup that's really easy to grip one-handed (conversely with the Medela Seamless and Light Support bras they're tiny and are tricky to close in a hurry with an active baby). These Bravado bras provide better support than competition and I wish I had purchased a few when nursing my firstborn then I wouldn't have struggled with 20 something less than perfect quality nursing bras most of which I ended up discarding. One flaw though, when a cup is unclipped, the strap of that side will fall off the shoulder, small issue I can live with.

Medela Underwire Seamless Nursing Bra 36DD - White


Price: $34.75


Product Description

The underwire style features a resilient cotton-spandex and nylon fabric blend that assures a comfortable fit throughout the life of the garment. Narrow straps: B-C cups, cushioned, wider straps: D-H.


Customer Review:


I ordered another one of these with this baby because I liked the one I had with my first two children. I like the wide, padded shoulder straps, but they do make it difficult to wear some wider collared shirts. I also like the small amount of padding in the cup that helps to hide those pointy nipples. Something I didn't like is that while it is still new (now even four months later) when the wire twists and rubs on the material it has a slight squeak. But, it didn't stop me from buying another one.

La Leche League Intimates Wht Hgh Impct pllover Sprt Bra - Small


Price: $22.09


Product Description

High impact sport nursing bra with logo elastic. Pull over design in cotton/spandex and waffle mesh to hold you during workouts. Drop cup for ease in feeding the baby with easy one hand nursing buckle. A portion of each sale of a LLLI Intimates item goes to La Leche League International **MELISSA'S PERSONAL COMMENTS** This bra works great as a nursing sports bra if you have small breasts. No larger than a true DD or F cup. LLLI calls this a high impact bra but it has more moderate support. I personally think that a regular sports bra is the best way to go anyway. The size ranges are better, the fabrics are actually designed for working out, and they are more supportive. And since there is no nursing sports bra on the market currently above an F cup, a regular sports bra is the only option for those with larger breasts.

Runs small, this brand is not consistant with sizing so be careful. I like this bra for a while, but after 2 months the wires poked out. I dry bras in the dryer, so maybe it's my fault, but other bras I have hold up much better than this one.

La Leche #4106 Seamless Padded No Wire Nursing Bra


Price: $20.43 - $35.50


Product Description

Soft wireless microfiber seamless padded bra has one hand drop cup for nursing and a special feature-a second layer for hands free pumping with a breast pump.

Fabric is 90% nylon/10% spandex, lining is 95% cotton/5% spandex. Machine wash warm water, no bleach, line dry.


Customer Review:


I love this product! I was so happy to find a nice bra to use as nursing and pumping. Not only was I able to pump hands-free at work, but I could also pump one side and feed from the other without trying to juggle the breast shield and the baby at the same time. I highly recommend for functionality.

The reason for only four stars is that the sizing leaves much to be desired. I was a DD, and I only purchased a D. I was trying to follow the advice of the other reviewers. The D was way too big for me too. In other nursing bras, I wore a DD, but this one in a D was ginormous! I think that it is so much bigger because of the extra material that is in the bra, they really should resize these bras so that we can purchase one that fits.

Customer Review:


It seems to work well for the first few times you wear it, but it started losing support after just days. My main concern when purchasing it was finding a bra which held it's shape and was easy to use for nursing my little girl. This bra is not suited well for anyone who wants to nurse most of the time. If you know you need to pump more through the day than nurse, then I could see it's purpose being well-served. The double layered covering is awkward. It takes much longer to get both parts undone, and it took several days to get the hang of reattaching the hook-and-eye part of it before I was able to fasten the regular clasp, which made it next to impossible to nurse my daughter out anywhere without drawing undo attention to myself. I was wanting a comfortable bra, but this is not it. I am constantly having to adjust the shoulder straps. Think carefully before you purchase this one. Again, great if you primarily pump, but not so good for people who mostly nurse.
