sleep bra recommendation?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
i'm currently wearing this bra to sleep in, but am finding that it doesn't give me enough support to keep my nipple lined up with the nursing pad. i sleep on my side, my boobs are size dd (more like boob, ha! the other one is probably a d ) and the top one migrates down to the side of the nursing pad. the same thing happens when i wear a nursing tank to bed.

any recommendations on a bra that's still really comfy but will give me enough support to prevent waking up with a big wet spot (and a dry nursing pad )?

I never found one myself. My best options were folding 2 receiving blankets into boob-sized squares and stuffing them into my top, or just sleeping on a towel.

This wasn't my favorite nursing bra (because it's so structured and the clasp is a pain), but it's suitable for sleeping in and it might help with the issue you describe: http://www.medelabreastfeedingus.com...rsing-bra-nude

NOTHING moved when I was wearing that bra.

Are you sure though that the issue isn't with your nursing pads? The ultra absorbent disposable Lansinoh ones cover a pretty wide area; they covered the entire cup of a sleep bra similar to the one you linked to. I didn't try cloth (other than diapers stuffed in my bra) and they were the only disposables that worked for me. I was also a DD postpartum and had a crazy oversupply.
