Hands free breast pump for very large boobs?

I’ve got very large, (rather saggy!) boobs and I’m currently breastfeeding my third baby. I’ve been using a Medela Swing pump with a Haakaa on the other side, but I’m thinking about getting a hands free, wearable pump to save time as I hate sitting around to express. However I’m concerned that my boobs will be too big to use a wearable pump and wondered if anyone has any first hand experience of using one with big boobs? Do you need to get a special extra big bra to fit it in? Don’t think there’s any spare room in my bra for a pump!

Thanks in advance!

Hey! I was 32HH after my DC. Elvie worked great, it comes with a nursing bra strap extender so you don’t need a special bra. Just remain upright (don’t bend over to get the washing out the machine…) or it leaks 🥲 any variation will probably work for you with a bra extender. They all should come with different sized nipple flanges to suit your needs too. All the best!
