I am about a 34E, not massive but big enough to need good support. I have just found out I am pg again so dig my old maternity bra's out (they weren't that good last time), anyway, they are not really supporting much at all, I feel all saggy and uncomfortable.
They are the cheapish ones you get in double packs from mothercare and m and s.
Can anyone recommend some comfy supportive ones that hoist em up?
Bravissimo are very good but expensive.
Debenhams have those Miriam Stoppard bras in a two-pack for just £16 in their sale at the moment. They give great support - I am a 34G - and they are dead comfy.
don't know them, but i'm sure they would be fine.
have you tried
figleaves?
Has anyone ever ordered online from bravo-lingerie.co.uk? They seem to be the only place that have a 32GG Freya nursing bra in stock but I've never heard of them?
Ooh some really pretty ones there, like the leopard print one!
lasenza are fab for big boobies.

Hi i have boobs like Jordan now ha,had to get a measure yesterday,was 38c now 40dd help very sore&painful &im 3mths pregnant,
Ah I see audrey, thanks for the advice!

i think the issue is in the early days of breastfeeding breasts tend to expand and shrink with feeds and as milk builds up. this means your actual cupsize can fluctuate many times in the day. a soft cup is better for accomodating these fluctuations. what you don't want is the wires pressing on a full breast leading to plugged ducts and possibly mastitis.
imo, i'd go for a soft cup in teh beginning, and once supply sorted itself out change to underwired
Oh I see, didn't know that. You think the advice is just cause lots of people wear the wrong sized bra so they just say not to wear underwired to err on the side of caution?
As long as you get a bra that fits properly then underwires will not cause a problem. You can actually get underwired feeding bras too now.
