Nursing bras are a serious headache! I'm so getting angry! - Page 3 - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

I got the motherhood sleep bras to wear at night and low-key days around the house adn some target nursing tanks to supplement those during the day when we don't go out- still looking for something supportive that doesn't look ridiculous in public and something pretty...sigh. GL!

I feel your pain - I have a small frame but a large chest and all the underwire bras ride up too high in the armpit for me and jab me all day.

I somehow got my hands on a front-closing, adjustable nursing bra from Old Navy - it's great and comfortable and no underwire. It is not exactly figure-flattering because it doesn't support the girls as well as a regular bra would. Still, it's a little better than a nursing cami that does nothing for your shape.

Also, try nursing bras designed for night-time nursing.

Good luck!

Another Bravado rave here- it's the only thing I own now. I have three body silk, the exquisite one, and another one that i really don't like- but the body silk and exquisite bra are AMAZING. They are literally the only thing I've found that fit right (32E/F, I buy the 34 DD/E).

This is my everyday bra, super cheap, but well made and working great for me. It's comfy and yet supportive.

My favorites are Bravado.
Though pricey IMO, they are WELL WORTH EVERY PENNY!

Hoping you like your's once they arrive.

I tried out TONS of nursing bras (I'm a 42DDD) and ended up going to Macys during a sale and buying my favorite bras (underwire, all of them!) and converting them myself. I found the little hook part I needed at JoAnn Fabrics and my sewing was crude but it did the job!

Good luck in your search!
