Nursing bras

[twiglet2]

I'm 36+3 and I'm planning on breast feeding and need to get some nursing bras. When should I buy them? Are my boobs likely to get bigger closer when the milk comes? Any advice gratefully received...

To start with I'd just get a couple (well, maybe 4 or so) sleep bra type nursing bras. Take a look at these [http://www.mothercare.com/Blooming-Marvellous-Lace-Non-Wired-Nursing-Sleep-Bra---2-Pack/LX5307,default,pd.html Sleep Bras] the cross-over style are good too, maybe better. This is all you'll need for around the house and they tend to just come in S/M/L. When you're milk is in and you have a better idea of the size they'll be, then you could go ahead and order something that you'll know will fit. After my DS was born, I think I just wore this type of sleep bra for about a month and nothing more, and I had pretty big boobs. It was fine as it wasn't as though I was doing anything more than gentle walks, so a ton of support wasn't necessary. Easy access is what it's all about!

Oh, and yes, they'll probably go up at least a cup size when your milk come in, but you never know.
