Hi there, can anyone recommend where is best to get nursing bras from?

I see so many online but wondered if anyone had any recommendations of good, affordable brands?

Thanks

Serpahine - I got four from there and I go through them daily, sometimes twice daily at the moment whilst breast feeding! They’re so comfortable! Xx

Ooh thank you. I ordered some nightgowns from there. I looked at bras and was unsure on sizes as they were in small medium large XL. Good to know that you recommend! Thank you

Before I gave birth, I bought a couple of cheap nursing bras which I was going to get rid off once baby arrived. They were from Shein and bohoo.

Why not book a M&S fitting to know your new size and then go from there. This is what I did after baby girl arrived. You can book it online. Once I knew my size, I bought bras from other retailers including M&S. Most retailers have a size guide even for small medium and large for example, I found out that a 34D is either a small or medium depending on the cut.

Thanks. I did an M&S fitting a while ago and they gave me a nursing bra way too early on. It was also too tight. So I had a bad experience with them. They're usually good which is a shame. I took it back to another store and they were shocked I had been given a nursing bra so early on in pregnancy. Not keen on going to them again for nursing bras but I usually shop with them for regular bras!

On ASOS: Lindex Mom 2 pack organic cotton nursing sleep bra are amazing for easy feeding! Please do bear in mind to size up as their sizes are often inaccurate, I found this and many other users in their reviews.

My son is two this month and I am still wearing my maternity/nursing bras even though I stopped feeding ages ago. They were from M and S. Super comfy.

Hofish ones on Amazon are a good price and super comfy. I have been recommending them to everyone who asks!

Seraphine, the bamboo nursing bras (twin pack). Best purchase ever.I got 4 as I need to change them daily.

Tried a different brand, bought 2 but they were nowhere near the same quality/not comfy and just staying in my wardrobe.

I got maternity vests from H&M, it means I can lift my top up to feed in public and still have my tummy covered which is great when it's cold. I prefer those when I wearing my normal clothes and then I wear maternity bras if I've got maternity clothes on.

Amazon, can't fault the price and the quality is good. I bought L then had to buy xl when I got to the third trimester. I bought them for maternity not for breastfeeding but they are suitable for both. amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B06...

Another vote for the Amazon ones above. They lasted me 2 breastfeeding stints so 1.5 years and wore them everyday. They were washed many times and I would still be wearing them if it wasn't for the fact my boobs shrunk so much post feeding. They were very comfy, fitted well, washed well and looked alright too.
