sleep bra recommendations

I'm expecting DC2 in Jan. I've found one of my old sleep bras - must have given away the other - but the label is so worn that I can't find what make it is. Remembering back to those sore and leaky boobs of the first few weeks or months, I'm happy to invest in something as comfy as possible. I'm a medium build, my maternity bras are 36DD though I think sleep bras are fairly one-size. Any tips?

Mothercare wrap style ones here too. Perhaps one of the only decent things sold in Mothercare these days.

I got mine from Mothercare too. Very similar to these

I was 32G before getting pregnant so quite hefty of nork & I found the crossover Mothercare ones completely fine, remarkably.

Jojo maman bebe would be my recommendation

I didn't know you could get sleep bras! I find my boobs withstand the rigors of baby much better if I sleep topless so they get exposed to the air at night. Otherwise they get sore. I do sleep on a towel though!

Thanks all! I will check em out!

Another vote for the Mothercare wrap style ones (and agree they're the only decent bras they sell): I wear them as my everyday bras in the early days until my size has settled, and then just as night bras.

I had mothercare ones from 2010 when I had ds. Just treated myself to 2 more (just had dd) The quality is so poor now. They were £26 for 2, so the same price if not more, and nowhere near as thick material or straps. Can't see them lasting as long as the originals.

I found Bravado bras very comfy indeed www.nursingbra-shop.co.uk/search.asp?types=Bravado&gclid=CNmt9ObxqbQCFW_KtAodxwEAJw

I second the Bravado bras. Bought the "seamless silk" variety and love them. I wear one 24/7 and can't believe it's been 3 months without slightest discomfort (that's bra-induced at least). They provided instant relief at the end of pregnancy too when the under elastic bit of every bra cut in endlessly.

Bravado silk here even with large boobs 34k. Can't wear them in the day!
