  • nursing bras

    the only thing i need to get now as i can't find the ones i had last time.

    So i need a few nursing bras mothercare is the obvious choice but does anyone else have any recommendations?

    I need a G cup so that might narrow the field down.

    John Lewis were really helpful. I'm an FF and also love bravissimo but unfortunately was seen by a woman who made me go up a back size and down a cup size! I think the recommendation is to just get one or two and then more after baby is born - I think for sizing and establishing bf purposes. JL did some plain ones in cotton but also have freya and other prettier makes btw!

    I got mine from Figleaves. Got some reasonably nice looking underwired ones (Anita I think) which came in up to an H cup (which was actually a G, something to do with it being German).

    I wanted to go out and change the world but I couldn't find a babysitter.

    I got mine from ASOS, I ordered them last week and have been wearing one of them the last few days as it is so comfy (1 in black and 1 in white).

    They were £16.00 each. Not sure on sizing though, mine are a E cup and come up quite big - certainly enough room for a breast pad etc xx

    This time round i've used www.bras4mums.co.uk and can't recommend highly enough! They did a fitting over the phone with me and were really patient and helpful, free returns too!

    Had some from bravissimo but the fit wasn't right so not impressed,normally a bravissimo girl but more choice at bras4mums - currently wearing a black cherry coloured one which is actually quite nice (as far as nursing bras go!!)

    Leia in York, just along from Boots, sell them and also do fittings.  I found them really good.  However if you are a 34G then let me know as I have a couple you can borrow at least until you know everything has settled down and can buy some lovely ones.

    I love my Hot Milk one that I got online. Go and get measured (Bravissimo is good and there's one in Queen's Arcade in Leeds) then get online.

    thanks for all the suggestions I'm having a look at some of those links now.

    JB I'm either a 36 or 38 G depending on the Bra but thanks for the offer.

    Oh no. The lady got it right for me, so was goo but I wasn't sure about the lack of tape measure. Try M&S then.

    I am a 38G and my fav bras were

    http://www.zodee.co.uk/womens/le-mystere-lingerie/florence/161/?categoryid=1061  It is underwired, and just so comfortable and a good shape too ( I now have 4 of them and still wear them despite only bf 2x day Embarrassed )

    Zodee also have some good deals on hotmilk who also go up to G cup in some styles

    http://www.debenhams.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prod_10001_10001_152010802599_-1?breadcrumb=Home%7Etxtstoppard#BVRRWidgetID These are good too if you don't want underwires (they have a 'peephole' style access for feeding so much more discreet for public feeds

    Mothercare ones are pants at a G cup.  I quite liked the Debenhams ones for ones you don't care about being pretty and my Hot Milk ones from Zodee.  The back sizes come up slightly large in Hot Milk though.
