Where to go to get fitted for breastfeeding bras?

I gave found mothercare/m&s fitting service rubbish. Can someone please suggest somewhere that a massive big norked breastfeeding mum can get some bras that her ample bosom isn't going to fall out of? TIA Smile

Bravissimo are very good, if not, your local NCT will have someone trained locally who can visit you and measure.

Anita underwire nursing bras are fab, I ordered online from figleaves I think, the size guide is good and can send back if not right.

Try nursingbra.co.uk I too am massive of the norks and have been bf DC1 then DC2 for 2 years so far.

This site has a good selection & I've found the customer service great too (for returns/exchanges). Easy to search by size too.

Love the anita 5062. Also got a hot milk one which looks prettier but isn't as comfy.

I second the rec for anita underwired bras. I was 34j when BF my son and now on 27 weeks preg again and have shot back up to HH/J. The anita ones are the only bras which offered me support and were comfy. Bravissimo fitted me correctly but sold me some soft cup ones which are really uncomfortable - to get any support i have to have them so tight round the ribcage which just hurts. Anita underwired bras are the future for large-breasted pregnant/ BF women!

Debenhams measured me well and have a good selection of well priced ones.

I'm 34ff or thereabouts depending on brand & just got a lovely maternity bra from bravissimo. Would also recommend bravado seamless silk bras for sleeping in/ round the house - soooo comfy.

I'm a massive fan of cake maternity and hotmilk bras. I love hotmilk as I went back to work last still BF, and they stood up to a very physical job and were so comfortable. Would recommend to anyone.

Last year even.

I recommend the underwire Anita bras too. They are comfortable and give a good shape under clothes unlike almost all other nursing bras. They wash well too.
