Only doing 2 bfs a day - can I go back to wearing 'normal' bras?

Hi - probably a very dull question but I'm fed up of wearing my two now very grotty nursing bras. My ds is a year old and only has two breastfeeds a day - first thing and last thing. is it ok to go back to wearing my pre-pregnancy underwired bras now? Can I stop wearing a bra at night? Also I'm planning to give up bfeeding in a couple of months or so, would it be stupid to get measured and buy some new bras now? I can't imagine my boob size is going to change that dramatically as I'm only doing 2 feeds but have no previous experience of this and don't want to waste my cash. I'm just desperate to have some nice underwear for the firsr time in 2 years.

You can wear an underwire bra when bf - as long as the fit is ok there should be no problems. I have been wearing one throughout feeding dd. You can buy really nice ones now. I don't wear a bra at night either, are you supposed to?

I was wondering this as my nearly 9month old had refused breast milk for last 3 days, so am wondering when to risk not wearing nipp pads, and when to get bra measured, even though I am still 2 stone overweight...
