Can anyone recommend a good nursing bra for the reasonably well endowed?

Displacement: I am a 38g and find Royce very comfy and supportive

However, after 15 months of BFing DS2 I began to really miss not being able to wear a pretty sexy bra

HOTmilk are a newish brand from NZ and their bras are fabulous - they come in all the larger cup sizes and certainly have filled a gap in the market for good quality, supportive nursing bras or women with substantial norks,which are still gorgeous bras.

google HOTmilk or Bras4Mum, who have the best range for the larger cup sizes (they stock bigger sizes than the other retailers such as Figleaves)

Enjoy!!

Tinkerbelle... what I should've said is I can't find any nice nursing bras in my size. There might be three actually; bravado do a custom one (which is useless) NCT do one called comfort which looks like something your Nan might have worn in the 50s and Royce - the one in my size that bravissimo do - yet another unwired one - I didn't actually find at all supportive.

But thanks to the bra conversion kit I have nice bras that fit me and look good (and underwired... thank heavens!)

Hey Evenhope - did you see on that page of bras they had "beautiful Mum pants" to match to bras? Haha ... what a laugh. That Model's never even looked at a baby!

The lady who runs {{http://www.bras4mums.co.uk/ this website]] came to a breastfeeding support group I attended. She did measure us all but she gives really good advice based on your measurments and has a really good selection!

Also she is a mum herself so she knows what she is selling.

I nearly started this thread six months ago but looking at the existing bra discussions, decided I must be the only one with this problem! I also have tried a few different ones from different sources (I'm an E cup) and couldn't believe how rubbish they all were!

So tricky when you can only find them over the internet and don't have a small fortuned to spend on trying each and every one till one fits!

I'm really surprised - at the time of your life when your norks are bigger and heavier than ever before, why do they make such crap bras???

I love the suggestions on here though (especially the converter idea) and next time (says she, after having her fourth and 'final'....) I'll find this thread again!

I've found the Anita underwired ones to be really supportive. They are available from Blooming Marvellous. Have had Elle Macpherson, M&S, Mothercare and an Emma Jane one, which were all non-wired and all uncomfortable and not supportive for bigger boobs. The Anita underwired one gives a decent shape and doesn't make you feel like a blob. this page

Converter idea also sounds like a great idea.

seriously, Hot Milk is the way forward!
