M&S! I went a couple of weeks ago and measured a GG so got some then and plan on going back for nursing bras around 36 weeks as they said the shape changes etc at the end last weeks!
I was planning to go to Bravissimo- do you think M&S is better/ as good? x
I really like M&S as they do proper measuring and know a lot about maternity/nursing bras. I haven’t looked into Bravisimo for nursing bras though!
I am seeing a breast consultant at the hospital because of changes (luckily not cancerous) I was a 34GG pre pregnancy. I was advised by the consultant to expect to be an L or M when my milk comes in and during breast feeding! I’ve been to M&S and found them completely useless at measuring and understanding or finding suitable ones. But I also went to bravissimo who are specialist trained in pregnancy and feeding. They were fab! I’ve got underwired supportive nursing bras! Which is what the consultant said I would need. They are pricey, around £50 each or so, but for me it’s been worth it. I know my size might change again so I’ll be going back in a couple weeks as they all say 36 weeks ish breasts change again.
Ah. Yeah I did wonder if under wired would be essential. I’ve never had non underwired bras that actually support me. Thanks Camilla. I’ll go ahead and make the bravissimo appointment I think. I’ve already wasted £36 on 2 without underwire. x
I’m 36J and go to bravissimo anyway. I went during my first pregnancy and the non wired nursing bras I got were so comfortable I’ve been wearing them despite no longer feeding and now pregnant again. Will go back for a refit with this one but I really rate them!
Oh nice! Which brand were they Gemma? Bravissimo’s own or Freya or something else? x
@Julia try on some Elomi and some Panache as well as bravissimo own brand when you go for your appointment . They do underwired nursing bras. One of the ones I live in is Elomi! I tried on a few Hot Milk ones too as I know they are going a bit viral at the moment and supposed to be really good but I found them useless for me, didn’t provide any support at all and the shape was more like cones 🥴 But everyone is completely different! Hope you find some that work for you
Thank you all! X
I would also love to know as I am over a H cup and no soft bras actually hold the gals in properly with support, kinda wanna try the snag bra but it’s difficult as I like to try them on before buying! 🫠
