HELP! Big nursing bra needed

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
So, with dc #1 I had 3 great bras i got from a lactation consultant who carried a million types.

With Dc #2 she was out of business and i was just stuck with the worn out old bras from #1 and some really ill fitting ones.

Well, now with #3 I have no bras. I found someone on here who said she made custom bras. I got all the measurements for her and sent them and waited, sent another email and waited etc. She hasnt gotten back with me in a month. I was so excited to finally get some bras that ACTUALLY fit. She had great communication for so long and then seemingly vanished.

Now, i am due in in 2ish months and i need to find some bras. I have no idea where to look.

If there is someone else who makes them that you know of i would love that. If not please let me know where you have gotten big (38/40 k/l/m) size nursing bras.

Thanks

I like zippered cups nursing bras, suppliers had vanished at the time of my last pregnancy so had to compromise on fabric (synthetic instead of cotton) but found some annacecilia bras I liked which I baught mail order from the UK at cheekyrascals
http://www.cheekyrascals.co.uk/?menuId=16&pageId=144

you could also look there
http://www.breasttalk.co.uk/nursing.aspx

then, when you find the brand that you like, you can look for a supplier near you if it's going to be cheaper than mail order ....
good luck !

Have you looked around on Etsy? You could probably put in an Alchemy request to get some custom made- you'd even get to set your price!

I've known people who have had good luck with www.biggerbras.com -- you can select "Maternity and Nursing" under "Style" to see their nursing bras. Some nursing moms with large breasts have recommended Anita brand bras, but there's a wide selection of brands on that website.

I've sometimes had luck with the custom bras at bigbra.com.

I've found a good selection of harder to find/larger sizes and better nursing bras at breakout bras.

I think our mamas in the Breastfeeding Forums will have experience and good ideas, so I am popping this over there. I'm leaving a link in TAO so folks can still see it and and head over here.
