Comfortable nursing bra for large and less-than-pert boobs?

Can anyone help me out? I am 30 wks pg and about to move into nursing bras (from uplifting underwired!) for the 3rd time. It's so depressing though. I am normally a size 32GG and my boobs are...how can I put it politely?...well let's just say that my nipples aren't far away from my waist and it's a challenge for the sturdiest underwired balconette bra to work against gravity and hoist them up a bit! So, can anyone identify with this boob description and suggest a nursing bra they have found that is remotely comfortable and a decent fit?

Am feeding baby no2 at the mo & though i'm not as big as you, am a 30F & would describe them as less than perky!

Would recommend having a look at the bravissimo site here, recently went for a fitting at one of their local stores & lady doing the fitting recommended nursing bras made by Royce, she said they are the sturdiest ones she has come across. I bought one & would recommend them too.

I would recommend Royce as well for the larger bosomed lady- I tried about 5 others includng NCT ones and Royce were the most comfortable and supportive (and without looking too much like some sort of pre war foundation garment.)

I have just treated myself to an anita underwired bra from figleaves.
After 3 kids, and being a similar size to you, i needed more support than most feeding bra's give.
I am extremely happy with it, it gives you a really nice shape and doesn't squash your boobs together giving you that horrible mono-boob look that most feeding bra's do!
I think they have money off them at the moment too!
The only criticism I have is that you can't get a 32, they start at 34, however I bought a 34 G (normally 32 G) and it has been fine.
