Nursing bra intervention required!

OrangeMochaFrappucino · 17/06/2014 09:00

My baby is 10 weeks old and I've measured - 36 inches under the boobs and 48 inches around the fullest part. What size nursing bra can I hoik over them and what brand might offer them proper support? I'm currently wearing soft cup Bravissimo 38H bras from my last time breastfeeding but they aren't holding them up very well! Please help me look less shapeless!

Start with a 36hh. You might want to consider wearing normal bras and getting the nursing bra converter kits to make then in to drop cups. Alternatively ewa michalak do underwired nursing bras

Your current core size suggests 36HH so not vastly different from what you're wearing, and you might want to try a 34J as well. Soft cup will never give you a defined shape, breastfeeding or not, so for shape you'll need to go for wired nursing. Correct fit will be critical to avoid tissue problems.

The Panache Sophie is my favorite non wired nursing bra and the only one which gives me some shape. I have a carriwell to sleep in.

I have a couple of wired ones from HotMilk which are nice Smile
