Sleep Nursing bra's do you need them?

[loganberry12]

HI IM INTENDING ON BREAST FEEDING THIS TIME AND THINKING ABOUT BUYING NURSING BRA'S BUT WAS WONDERING IF I SHOULD BUY SLEEP NURSING BRA'S OR ARE THEY A WASTE OF MONEY? WHAT DO YOU LOT THINK IS IT WORTH BUYING A COUPLE? sorry about the capitals didnt realise it was on until id typed most the message and couldnt be bothered to type it all again

I haven't bought them, but can imagine they may be helpfull as I got very sore and full whilst bf dd4. Give them a try!

Are you asking, is it worth sleeping in a bra or is it worth buying specific bras to sleep in. I have big boobs so need a bra to sleep in, plus in the early days you can get very leaky so need breast pads. I had a sleep bra but ended up wearing a day bra as the sleep bra wasn't supportive enough. So, in short, I think you will probably need to sleep in a bra in the early days because of leaks, but no you probably don't need a special sleep bra. Hope that makes sense!!!

I bought normal nursing bras and wore them to bed. I am quite generously sized and don't find the sleep bras supportive enough. I would say you need something otherwise they will be heavy and uncomfortable. Smaller women I know find the normal nursing bras unbearable to sleep in and use a sleep one.
