The BEST Nursing Bra Ever - and I've tried them all!!!
By S. Morris
I'm presently nursing my third child. So, by this point, I've been breastfeeding for over six years. I need a rather hard-to-fit size (normal rib/band but very huge cups) and had almost given up on ever finding something that fit AND provided the support I wanted... The idea that I might likewise find a bra that gave great shape seemed an inconceivable dream.
But this bra delivers!
It provides sufficient aid that I actually wear it to the gym and while taking the kids out in the jogging stroller.
It's so comfortable that I genuinely wear it all day and forget that I'm wearing underwire.
My breasts genuinely look outstanding in it. My clothes hang decently and I feel much prettier.
And speaking of pretty - this is the prettiest nursing bra I've ever worn. I've purchased other high end finelooking nursing bras (Ly Mystere's Florence, for one), but this is better designed and better made. Even the hooks on the back and the cup clips are just a cut above any others I've used. The straps are wide sufficient to be comfortable, but don't have that industrial foundation garment look that wider straps many times assume. I may genuinely wear this with my tank tops and V and scoop neck shirts.
As if all that wasn't enough, the actual nursing functionality is fabulous. The clips are easy to operate with one hand and the cups drop without apparent effort so you don't have to fumble or adjust to get the bra out of the way before baby latches on (those of you who try some of the Goddess and Medela super-support styles recognise what I mean!). The ribbon loop "handles" and the bead to keep track of which side you last nursed on are details that I don't need, but I in all probability would have cherished those features when I was attempting to figure out the nursing kinship with my introductory child.
Yes, this bra is pricier than a good deal of others out there, but it's worth each penny. Buy this one basi rather of wasting your cash experimenting with for less ones. You'll save in the long run and feel better with regards to how you look. I don't have a lot of extra cash lying around (I have three kids after all!), but I just signed on to Amazon to buy two more of these bras so I thought I'd take the time to review it for all you nursing mamas out there who are agonizing over finding the right bra.
One last bit of counsel - If in doubt on the band size, I'd suggest going littler on this bra. I ordinarily wear a 36, but have been known to buy a 38, specially near the end of a pregnancy. The 36 in this bra fit just fine, but if I lose any more weight (and I will - my baby is only two months old) it might be too big. I already have it on the tightest set of hooks. I'm getting a 34 in the two I'm ordering today.

This bra is just OK for me...
By J. Kohler
Pros: This bra surely provides good breast support. If I'm going out for an evening and need extra lift this bra is a good choice. The fabric is soft and not at all itchy. Also, it is finelooking easy to latch and unlatch the clip.
Cons: I'm not crazy when it comes to the inner fabric that surrounds each breast--it many times interferes with quick and easy access to breast for baby. Also, I find that the sides of the bra have a tendency to roll down. This is rather annoying--I find that I have to adjust and re-adjust the sides allround the day. I got in a professional manner fitted for this queer bra so I know that it isn't an issue of having the "wrong" size (I'm a 38E). The bra would be better with more supportive fabric on the sides. At times it is likewise a pain to get the lacy fabric all the way down past nipple because of the underwire--it takes numerous finessing to get the material the right way adjusted for feeding. Perhaps this is a mutual problem though with underwire nursing bras.
Overall, the bra is just OK for me. I will say that by the time I get home I'm ready to take it off, which in my opinion makes the bra NOT worth the hefty price. I will carry on the search for the best nursing bra because I have not found it in this bra.

Pretty, but not comfy
By Jennifer L. Jamison Gines
This may be TMI, but the lace front is not comfy on breast feeding nipples and of course there is no absorbing material, so adding a nursing pad looks foolish through the lace. It is very beauteous and it is nice to feel sexy, but it is not practical for each and everyday wear.
