Nursing bras advice

Hello all
I'm 28 weeks pregnant but none of my bras fit me anymore! I'm usually a small 34B, so for nursing/maternity bras do I buy the same size like I would with maternity clothes or do i go up cup sizes? I'm probably at least a C now I would guess (and they've leaked a little so need something asap!), but I have no idea and obviously due to covid I can't try anything on in the shops. Also, do you think it'll get bigger again when I get to the end? Still a way off in terms of weeks. Thanks for your help!

I think you should measure yourself to get an idea of size. Try booborbust site www.booborbust.com

There is lots of good advice from this company: www.bravissimo.com/maternity-and-nursing-bra-guides/ They specialise in large cup sizes so you probably won't be able to buy from them, but it will help you choose something from M&S or wherever. I'm 14 weeks and have gone up 2 band sizes and 2 cup sizes (so from 28FF to 32FF) and I think I'm still growing (!)

Absolutely just get the stretchy ones from H&M or M&S. they’re not v attractive, but they make up for lack of beauty by being very comfy. I’d get a size larger than you think. I’m usually a 32DD and I got medium from M&S and they were perfect.

I asked a similar question on here a few days ago. First, measure yourself using boob or bust. You'll probably come out a lot larger than you thought but I do think it's right for a properly fitting bra!

I was recommended this from Amazon which arrived next day via prime and is VERY comfortable. It has loads of hooks on the back so seems like will last through pregnancy (I'm on the tightest one now) and super stretchy and comfy but supportive.

I ended up buying some clips and converting some non maternity ones as o couldn't find any pretty ones in my size

I would say don't spend too much on nursing bras before you have the baby as your rib size and boob size then change quite dramatically! I like Bravado and Latched for good nursing bras.
