Help with comfortable support

Hi there,

Can any of you ladies recommend me a comfortable and partly-supportive vest top or bralet type item? I work from home all day on a laptop, so I don't need something to make me decent for other people, just something to provide some level of comfort right now. I'm still very early days (4+1) but I've always struggled with comfortable bras (30f). I've been feeling extremely tender this last week and there's definitely been some growth.

I used to like those secret support vests from M&S, but as I've gained a bit of weight over the last year, I can no longer get one with enough space in the breast area with a small enough elastic band under the breasts.

Please tell me someone has a major trick up their sleeves on this one? Hopefully something on the high street I can try on and then buy 10 of?!

I know I need to go bra shopping again soon as well, but I'm not sure how long to leave it or typically when they'll stop growing? Good bras don't come cheap!

I'm not sure if its what your looking for but I wear my breast feeding tops from h&m. They have a supoort band in them which helps so much as the clasp on my bar made me itch so much. They werent that expensove either about £12 for two of them.

Im a size 18-20 in tops and 38F in bras normally and the extra large ones fit really well so I'm sure youd be able to find some in your size too. Good luck I hope it helps xx

Amazing, thank you. Or even the soft sleep nursing bras! I hadn't even thought to look in the maternity sections. I'll see if I can try some on tomorrow!

I bought a couple of cheap nursing bras off Amazon. They were about £2 each so I figured if they were really rubbish I was only down a fiver, and if they were brilliant I could buy loads.
Turned out to be a really good call as my boobs are still changing shape, and the first one I bought no longer fits.

Excellent thanks. I saw they have those on Ebay as well, I might give one a go!

I’m an E cup and wearing non-wired bras from M&S that look like a crop top. They were £20 each but worth every penny.
