Bras for breastfeeding

Any recommendations please for comfy bras with strap clips for breastfeeding?
Ideally available from Amazon Prime as time running out to get to shops or order online with longer lead times.

I would start by ordering some stretchy bralette type ones, then once your milk supply is established and you know what your new size is, buy some nice ones from HotMilk or similar.

I just... shoved up my usual bra and pulled it down afterwards? Didn't even realize nursing bras were a thing until I read this! It never felt uncomfortable or inconvenient.

Boux Avenue ones are lovely. Nice and stretchy, comfy and supportive. They do online delivery too.

Not Amazon Prime but I bought all my maternity/nursing clothes from H&M, very reasonable and fairly quick delivery.

I had H&M and Bonprix cotton ones, both of which were good. I found I fell out of the clip ones and preferred the pull aside crop top style

Buy some stretchy crop top types in a size or two up. Easy to just pull aside and very good value (have just seen m and s sale is on if you have time). If you find later on you need more support, you’ll know better what size you need and what comfort level you will tolerate!
After 9 years of either pregnancy or bf (I bf each child for ages), I never went back from stretchy crop bras!

Thank you for all replies - bras are not for me - pregnant DD due c-section in coming week and I'm helping out with last minute things!

I really rate the magnetic clips from HotMilk - the clasp ones used to drive me potty!

I used the 'Hofish' brand from amazon and recommend. Perfect for those first couple of months, and then get nicer ones from Hot Milk once her bra size has settled.

If you can get to an M&S, their nursing vests are brilliant too. I basically lived in those when nursing my second.

Also I know people are saying just pull down a normal bra or crop top but when I was a FTM learning to breastfeed, I found specific nursing vests and those amazon bras more supportive and easier to use.

Medela Cool Sleep bras are amazing. My boobs were agony. Didn’t wear anything else for about a year!

More great replies and suggestions, thank you - I'll certainly be able to help source something now!
