My bras are tragic or non-existent! Please help me with a Bf compatible bra for a smaller bust.

[BranchingOut]

It seems a long while since I wasn't pg or bf (now bf a toddler 2.4). I have been wearing nursing vests for a long time and haven't really got any nursing or non-nursing bras that really fit. I am looking for a nursing bra that suits a smaller bust. My size is 34C, I think, though I need to get measured.

I would like something pretty and maybe with a bit of padding/uplift. It has been a while since there was any uplift in my underwear drawer .

Any tips? Views on Anita, Hotmilk, Elle McPherson, Royce etc? Thanks.

I am a 32d/dd when bfeeding and I really like Hotmilk and Figleaves. I ordered different sizes from ASOS and then just returned the ones that did not fit. I ended up keeping one Elle Macpherson set as well, but I don't like it as much because the design does not really suit me.

Decent underwear makes a huge difference to the way I feel. So much of nursing stuff is horrid, but I love bfeeding, so may be wearing it for years to come (DS is only 9 mo).

Which hotmilk do you wear? When you say figleaves, is that an own brand?

I find the hotmilk very confusing, mostly due to the names 'She was surprised by her own deliciousness' etc!

I'm on the phone, sorry for massive links.

The bras in the first and last link have a built-in harness within each cup which stays on while you unclip the cup itself, exposing only the nipple and the skin around it. The midnight charm bra (where do they get these demented names from?) does not have the harness, the cup unclips and gives you free access.

Don't be put off by the silly names, the bras are great.

Thanks, that gives me a start. I like the first and the last the most.
