When did you buy them and where from. Trying to hold off as I expect size to increase but don't want to leave it too late. Also how many do I need.thanks.

I had a couple maternity bras that were also breastfeeding, then when my milk came in I went and got properly measured. Found mothercare bras horrible and itchy. I liked Denenhams breastfeeding bras best. Nice and soft and last ages with loads of washing, they also do a couple t-shirt bras that I found really hard to track down.

I got mine at Bravissimo.

How many you need depends on how often you want to do your washing, but I'd say 2 as a minimum, then you've got one to wear when the other's in the wash.

At least 2, you can't really wear more than once as they get milk on. I had 2 m&s ones in a smaller size, 2 bigger debenhams ones and then 2 massive ones from bravissimo. I got measured for the bravissimo ones. They all got worn at different stages. I think about 6 months in when ds started feeding less I slowly ditched them for normal bras.
