Apparently aldi sell nursing bras? Nearest one would require a short train journey but that would still be cheaper then some of the prices I've seen for 1 bra. Also have no clue where you can buy nursing tops from other then online. Don't wanna spend too much because basically I don't know if I'm gonna be able to carry on feeding long term.

I had some fairly cheap nursing tops from the H&M Mama range. Not sure about bras though, mine were from Debenham, by Miriam Stopped.

The Asda George range do a cheap bra for £6, online order though I think

Hey, for nursing tops just now I'm just using button down shirts or cardigans over strappy tops (cheapy ones from Primark) and I just open the cardigan a bit and pull down the top. I seem to be doing ok with BF at 3 weeks so just the other day I invested in a couple of Purpless nursing tops from Amazon. They have little flaps and looked really good on the website, they were about £10 so I just got a couple for when I want to be a bit more subtle! I don't know about bras as a similar sized friend gave me her old ones as she hadn't been able to BF. :)

Don't bother buying nursing tops, just wear a strappy vest (£2 in primark!) under your normal tops. It's best if you wear it back to front as then it is lower cut at the front. When you want to feed, just pull down the vest along with the bra and lift up the outer top. I bought 5 strappy tops for a tenner and that has essentially converted my whole wardrobe into nursing tops! Also helps to keep you warm on these chilly winter days...

As for bras, I use M &S ones and like them a lot. Not particularly cheap though.

H&M do two-packs (one white, one black) of nursing vests with drop-down clips and 'shelf' boob support for £5. They are fab - they wash well and they're a good length. I sleep in them.
