Arghhh....

I have been wearing my normal nursing bras since dd was born, 8 weeks now, 24/7 and the back clasps are really irritating me so I have decided to get some sleep ones without fastening on the back etc for comfort.

We only have 1 mothercare in this big city and its based on a shopping estate on the edge of town with no buses, so for first 6 weeks couldn't get here anyway.

Made it over today and hunted high and now, they had some... Great! But only in sizes 8 or 20!! Arghhh

I have now ordered some off ebay but so disappointed , was looking forward to comfort tonight!!!

Surely, knowing you are the only store you'd ensure you had plenty of stock!

YANBU!
i have found the same every single time i have been to mothercare, i just dont understand, the money they are losing is unbelievable.
Also the fact that it always basics as well, never full range of underwear,plain black trousers, tights etc
I am a retail manager and if my store had stock issues like that my boss would go insane!

YANBU
Also, the fact hardly any of their pregnancy wear is also suitable for nursing, when they have such a limited range of nursing wear anyway.

I've ended up buying larger sizes from matalan for pregnancy t-shirts but I bought a dress from mothercare, by the end of my pregnancy I had to wear leggings under it to save my dignity and I wasn't that big!

I haven't bothered with nursing clothes from there, I hitch up my top and think sod it...

For the money they charge I expect more!
