I don't want a nursing bra just one that I can slip off my shoulders without cutting blood supply to nipple! But I need a lot of support, any ideas for me?

Why don't you want a nursing bra?

If you fancy trying one, I'd recommend Elomi underwired feeding bra. I am a 34G and find it v supportive and comfortable.

I always use Bravissimo. I asked them to measure me for a nursing bra when I was pregnant and came out as a 32HH (!!!!). The ones I have a very pretty and very supportive but they have a great range of non nursing bras if you prefer.

I used a normal underwired balconet style bra when feeding an older DD when we started only feeding at home. Always get mine from bravissimo as the do knoe how to fit a bra.

If it's because you want a nice bra then try HOT milk they are lovely very well supporting nursing bra. They also do my very big H cup.

Freya nursing bras.

I used normal bras for ds1 but got proper one for ds2. well worth the money IMO.

I couldn't find one so just bought my usual Panache superbra and cut the straps and sewed in those clippy things.

Bravissimo are brilliant. If there is one near you then they can do a proper fitting, or there is a helpline and guides on their website.

Don't get any Emily B bras though, I've had a few and they've all been crap.

thanks for all your recommendations - seems like Bravissimo is worth a visit. I do have a branch fairly locally. I don't want the clips because I am fed up with the fiddling and 9 months in am not getting them out quite as often.

I have tried Royce and Hot Milk and was very disappointed with them both - the Royce one broke ( maybe I should have got a bigger size!)
